Although he did travel with the squad, unlike a few of their 25 man squad, so he was obviously close to being on the bench.Not even in the squad tonight.

He’s going nowhere on a permanent deal - he’s just signed a 5 year deal extension at Chelsea....
I think he will end up at Cardiff on loan in January
Agree about Cardiff but I think Southampton will be right in the mire until/unless they get shot of Mark Hughes.Let's hope you're wrong about that part. He needs to be able to learn how to play in the Premiership not how to fight a relegation battle for an ex-Scummer with a huge northern chip on his shoulder. He'd be far better going to somewhere like Palace or Southampton where they more likely to avoid the dog fight and he can learn his trade without playing in an atmosphere of fear of the drop.
Not Southampton, for God's sake. Hughes is one of the worst managers ever and tends to favour aging players rather than young'uns.Agree about Cardiff but I think Southampton will be right in the mire until/unless they get shot of Mark Hughes.
Any loan needs to be to somewhere that he'll get regular first team games - Tomkins, Dann and Sakho would all keep him out of the Palace side I'd say. He'd be better off getting a loan to the top end of the Champo than to the lower reaches of the PL, I'd say.
But Hughes is a very proud Welshman not to mention former Welsh International. Amps is a Welsh International, just a thought...…………...Not Southampton, for God's sake. Hughes is one of the worst managers ever and tends to favour aging players rather than young'uns.
Yeah, he struggled apparentlyHe has - against Eriksen in the Wales v Denmark match the other night. Didn't see it myself but it was described as a 'steep learning curve' for young Ampadu.
To be fair he started ok but like the rest of the Welsh team faded badly in the second half.Yeah, he struggled apparently
Not a criticism at all. Why wouldn’t he struggle! But to be worth £25M he’d need to be mixing it with that level all the time I’d think
Disagree. I think he's ok, better than the other middling managers: Allardyce, Pardew, McLaren, Pulis etc. Not a world beater, but not a duffer either.Not Southampton, for God's sake. Hughes is one of the worst managers ever and tends to favour aging players rather than young'uns.
