'I felt I didn't play enough'. Francisco Sierralta is looking forward to the challenge of the Championship after a difficult Premier League campaign
It would be easy to dub defender Francisco Sierralta the forgotten man, given he didn’t play a minute of first-team football after the FA Cup defeat at Leicester in January.
The defender returned to the side under Claudio Ranieri though, for the home games with Spurs and West Ham, before the FA Cup tie at Leicester. “But then we had another change of manager and I didn’t play any more. I think it was a technical decision on his part because he wanted to play more experienced players. All I know for sure is that I didn’t play again.”“I didn’t go directly and ask as I’m not the sort of player that goes straight to the manager,” said Sierralta. “I think maybe he could see that I was not happy in training, maybe he could see from my body language.
However, it’s a fresh start for everyone at Vicarage Road with a new head coach in Rob Edwards, and a general push towards trying to build a team with younger players.
