Ebbsfleet manager Dennis Kutrieb is hoping for good news on top scorer Dominic Poleon. The livewire striker was substituted at half-time during Tuesday night’s 1-1 draw at Woking in the National League.
Kutrieb felt Poleon was suffering from jetlag following international duty during last weekend’s clash with Chesterfield and believes fatigue could have played a part in midweek.
He’ll find out more this week. “We will see,” said Kutrieb. “I can’t tell you exactly if he is injured or just a bit fatigued. “We will assess him on Wednesday and then we’ll know a little bit more. “It’s always a problem when you need to make decisions if internationals are right or wrong.
The player needs to decide. “He had jetlag on Saturday and went off with fatigue today, hopefully not more. “This is always the trouble if you have long journeys to go to for internationals.
