Can Danjuma make a difference?

It hasn't been much of a season for Arnaut Danjuma. His foot injury has kept him out fa lot of games and he has made just nine appearances. The winger must have come to AFCB with high hopes of setting the Premier League alight, but he has done far more watching than playing. Perhaps his chance is just about to come though. Can he make a difference?

Is this Danjuma's big moment?

While Ryan Fraser has been the pick for the left wing, there is going to be an opportunity for someone else to play, if not straight away, then certainly when June ends and Ryan Fraser's contract runs out. If David Brooks and Harry Wilson are the main contenders for the right wing, then Danjuma may get a free run at the left side, unless Stanislas or King fancy the role.

But is Danjuma capable of being a match winner? We haven't seen him do it yet and in fact he hasn't yet scored, apart from in the Carabao Cup and a friendly, but he is quick of foot and perhaps just starting to get an idea of what it is like to play Premier League football. The behind closed door games may also be of benefit from him, if he feels less pressure on him from the absence of a crowd.

Whatever Danjuma expected for his first season at AFCB, he can only be eager to get back to playing. He might not have the experience to make Eddie put him straight into the starting line up, but sometimes you have to throw players in and see if they will sink or swim. This could be that moment for Danjuma, and if he did put in some great performances, he could be the sudden surprise hero of the season for AFCB, and he could do it with the fans only shouting his name across social media, rather than at the ground.
