He is a good player and will be missed but we do have wilson, harriott and bulot who can play on the wing. Get fit soon and come back full strength. Would rather that than rush him back and risk long term injury.

Agreed, he's looked like potentially a skinnier, quicker Andy Reid at times (his pass to set up Cousin's wonder goal for example) and isn't afraid to mix it up besides... which would potentially make a minor niggling injury flare up and deteriorate. Sweet Harriott and Bulot now have a chance to step up and stake a claim knowing they HAVE to earn it instead of coasting. Pretty win-win to me.
I would be surprised if Bulot starts on Saturday, a long flight from Africa, probably not getting back until Thursday, presume training and meeting up with rest of players for the first time on Friday. I would expect him to be on the bench and Wilson play on the right if Gudmundsson not fit and Cousins continuing on left. But hey, what do I know?
If he's not fit the I'd play cousins or Wilson on the right with harriott on the left.. too early to include bulot.. and with CH playing we maintain the balance of one out and out winger and one more defensive minded midfielder on the other side..
If Gudmundsson isnt fit then would definitely be Wilson who'll play there IMO... He's been the backup Right-Mid for the Cup matches and when Peeters has made any subs so unless Wilson hasnt been training properly then Id say it would be unfair to drop him
Gudmundsson was still on the bench for Iceland so hopefully will be fit.
Arent Qualifiers like the actual competition where anyone called up for International Duty is automatically on the bench if they havent been selected in the starting eleven?

Yup.. Just like in the World Cup even injured players are listed as substitutes
