The English midfielder played 90 minutes and got two assists in a 4-2 win against Copenhagen in the Champions League before another 120 in a DFB Pokal win over Eintracht Frankfurt.
In a win over Augsburg last time out he was rested, coming on for the last half hour.

“You could already see in the last game in Frankfurt what qualities he has. He’s present, has good physicality and a playing quality that he also brought to the pitch here in Augsburg during his 30 minutes,” Kovac told the club’s website.
“I really have no concerns about him. On the contrary: I know what he’s capable of. We’re building him up slowly here.
“I think it’s even faster than I imagined, because the lad really has a lot of quality.”
