Nottingham Forest head coach Steve Cooper named his team to face Sheffield United tonight and it left a lot of Reds fans asking the same question.
The Reds travelled to Bramall Lane in what is expected to be a tough examination given Paul Heckingbottom's side are aiming for Premier League promotion.
Ryan Yates made his return to the starting 11 for head coach Steve Cooper but it was on the bench that caused some Forest fans to notice there was no place in the squad for January signing Richie Laryea.
Here's what Reds fans had to say on Twitter.
Brummie Tricky: "£1m on Laryea, a 27-year-old full-back who seemingly is 4th choice behind a DM. Seems a weird signing. Can’t even make the squad."
Max: "Why's Laryea not even on the bench."
Matt: "Laryea and Panzo not even on the bench yet? Colback has been solid but will miss Lowe tonight- he has been quietly brilliant!"
Radfordino: "Why buy Laryea?"
1865Matt: "What’s the point in Laryea then?"
Elisa_1017: "Why isn't Laryea filling in for Lowe we brought him for moments like this."
Andy: "Was hoping to see Laryea on the bench - think he could add something for us (although untested I know)."
Hamish Coventry: "Layrea still not fit enough?"
