Once Smith was fit leaving out of Ehib was pretty obvious to most, Sunday illustrated the difference between the two perfectly.
Ehib was being bizarrely left out of starting games or being brought on games we were chasing before Smith was an option iirc
Exeter springs to mind.
I don't think anyone expects him to start ahead of Smith... but it's not much of a stretch to see him get 20 minutes most games. Or even start paired with Smith instead of playing Knibbs who goes missing all the time.
Ballard did pretty well, but it was an odd choice playing a loanee instead of our top scorer.
TBF to Knibbs, since he was moved more centrally he has been much more influential and barely gone missing, as he was prone to do out wide. Would struggle to make a case to drop him at the mo but earlier in the season, he was but Smith was out. Think it is helping the side having Smith & Knibbs in roles they know and played together in at Cambridge.
