    So if Romeu gets sent off now, with a ban already on Sunday, how long is his suspension?

    Purely theoretical of course.

    Let's remember this is a set of fans who boo Ramsey because he broke his leg at the Britannia from a shocking challenge from Shawcross. Awful bunch.

    The trouble is that even when we do create an opening (rather than dick around with the ball a la Arsenal of a few years back) we still don't look like scoring. Long could possibly go the whole season without a goal, JWP needs to be removed from direct free kicks permanently (especially when we have VVD in the team) and you could have five centre forwards in the box without a keeper present and it still wouldn't matter the way everyone bar Bertrand crosses it. I am hugely frustrated if you couldn't already tell.

    If we can't score in the 2nd half against 10 men, will Puel still say that there will be know plans to bring in a new striker?? Just saying :emoticon-0105-wink:

    Don`t give the ref the opportunity to even the numbers up. Hojbjerg for Romeu please.

    I think Clasie has the temperament we need. Hojbjerg has got quite riled up against those play acting Europa teams... And this is going to be just as bad.

    As far as I am aware, it would be one match for the red card. I don't believe that the yellow cards would count towards his season's tally (ie he would go back to being on four yellows). I think.

    Hence "give the ball to Boufal".

    Pretty sure this is right... I'd gamble and leave him on.

    I still can't figure out how there were only two added minutes when Arnautovic and Martins-Indi wasted that much time each!

    Not that worried about the crowd, probably less hostile towards our players than our home crowd anyway. <whistle>

    Everything is down the left side, our right side is producing nothing. Martina off and Tadic on for me

    Provided that's the strategy we employ up to the point where we buy three attacking players in January!
