There is a lot to be said for calling up #25 as "someone to take a closer look at" without having any intention of giving game time to. It seems a bit nit-picky for people to be criticising SK for calling up some fringe players for a closer look, to get to know, to start integrating with the squad etc. It would only be a negative thing if he had replaced someone (a) playing in the same position and (b) more meritous. I'm having a hard time seeing who that is.
However, i would like to see him comment on WK's impact during camp etc.
