Vieira seems to require a certain dynamism and energy from his players.
It could partially explain his reluctance to use the likes of Benteke,Edouard, Luka and Jairo with a preference for busy players like Schlupp,Gallagher Mcarthur, Kouyate and Mateta.
If this is correct I wonder if Vieira would perceive Eze as more of a luxury player to be used as a bit part player.
Sometimes very talented players do not fit the template of how a manager wants to play.
I am conscious that a couple of months ago Vieira was asked about how he envisaged utilising Eze.
He said either as a number 10 (we don't play a number 10) or wide left in a front 3 (which would mean displacing Wilf).
Unless we change out tactics, I don't see a place for Eze.
To those who see Eze as a replacement for Gallagher, he is a totally different type of player and I can't see this.

That article ended by saying that Eze was up for the move.
If so at £50m maybe that's why he's not playing.

Last season I thought Eze was most effective coming from deep on the left. I don't see him as a LW and think he could replace Schlupp in the line-up we had against Wolves. But at the moment I don't think he is properly match fit
