I’m confused why he wasn’t included in the first place if he’s been called up now.
I did think it was because they didn’t want a suspended player in the squad - limiting their options.
He was floated as next man up and a possible injury replacement - which would have made sense if there was an injury in the opening 3 games and then Crossland comes in and they only “miss” the squad player for 1-2 games.
But now he’s in, before a ball is kicked. Which brings me back to, why wasn’t he in the squad to begin with?
