It’s difficult though isn’t it – a young player comes in, he’ll show promise and then after a handful of games he’ll start to struggle mentally and physically because he isn’t ready to play week in week out at that level, even though long term he’s probably going to be good enough.
Cribb has had a lot of intense football now in the last couple of months, and they’ve been hard games in a bad side who are about to be relegated.
He wouldn’t be human if he wasn’t starting to struggle a bit short term.
Gallimore has had significantly less first team football recently and so will at least have the advantage of a bit of freshness and won’t be quite as badly battle scarred.
Get half a dozen quick games into his legs playing with that shower and he’ll inevitably start to look like he’s in the same boat as well.
