On what what do you base that? He has been injury prone ever since he started at Derby, aged 16 (probably too young), got injuries when he went out on loan to Bradford and Walsall and only got as far as the QPR game last September before getting crocked again.
He was rushed back too early by Portvliet against Forest, without any reserve footy, missed the xmas period, played a couple in January, before going off early at Norwich. Total 11 games.
As usual, missin players only enhance their reputation. McLaggon is now the best winger we have ever had.
I also noted that Holmes and Pulis (another world great) were subs against Millwall. At half-time only 5 of the 7 subs were on the pitch getting soaked by the sprinklers. No prizes for guessing the missing two. If Holmes was anywhere near fit, he would be in the team, as Pardew has spoken of the teams need to play wide and get crosses in.
Please do not base your hopes for the season on any injury jinxed players.
