Abbott opts to rest Taiwo
03 Feb 2010 - 15:24:31
Carlisle United manager Greg Abbott has opted to rest teenage midfielder Tom Taiwo in recent weeks due to fears of burnout.
The 19-year-old former Chelsea youngster has missed the games against Exeter City, Leyton Orient and Colchester United, with Abbott keen to give the prospect a break.
He told the News & Star: "Tom is absolutely not out of favour. He is just out of the team having a bit of a rest.
"He has played 20-odd games and at 19 years old that is the biggest run of games he has ever had.
"He is not out of favour and nor is anybody else. We will pick and change the team whenever we feel we need to."
Meanwhile, recent loan signings Ben Marshall and Darryl Duffy both made their Cumbrians' debuts in the 2-1 loss to the U's.
Winger Marshall has joined for a month from Stoke City, while striker Duffy has signed for three months from Bristol Rovers.
