He needs a rest now. He's been absolutely superb this season but he's starting every game and given the amount of international travel he's also had to do he must be knackered. Two poor performances in a row where the spark seems to have gone.
Annoyingly, the next two games at Dortmund and Liverpool so we ideally want our best players on the pitch though. But if he burns out then we could be kicking ourselves.
We have a 13 day or so break between the Southampton game and Liverpool game, with respect to the international fixtures. I believe Poch will take the players on warm weather training in Spain during that break. Hopefully we can get Dele back and reinvigorate the players to finish the season strongly.
