Why didnt we take a key defender?

Wicks is still pretty young.

Personally I hope we are planning to play them both together with the Paps.

Could happen. Particularly if Hayward was injured (). Hope his and Wicks' progression continues in healthy rivalry.
Both are probably versatile enough to fill other roles if it was necessary.

We really shouldn't hope for injury.

Hayward was actually pretty good last season.

Hence fingers crossed that he ISN'T injured.

For what it's worth, I didn't read it that way. I think it's a fair assumption nobody wants our players injured.
