Diabate not even on the bench.I would like to think it's because they want to give him more time and the FA Cup isn't worth risking him.

Alternatively new manager not yet impressed by him..... This could lead to a vicious circle - loss of confidence, rare selection, further loss of confidence etc.

GC has literally said that Diabate has aggrevated his injury

Re Diabate, I don't think it's the same injury. I believe this is an impact injury on his foot when he was landed on during an ariel challenge
