    It doesn't matter if you agree or disagree because its matter of fac.

    If he picked Dubravka this could not have happened .. that's a fact.

    The reason was to avoid this situation :emoticon-0148-yes:

    You’re still wrong. You’re still using the benefit of hindsight.

    No I'm not wrong hindsight is irrelevant to a matter of fact argument.

    If he'd picked dubs the situation where dubs and Pope were not available because of a red card was not possible... that is a fact and was a fact before kick off.

    Keeper is the last player that needs to be rested, Pope's fault and can't blame Howe for that.
    BTW just realised we have City next fs

    Was not really worried about that, it was more wishing we had a handy one to get going again!

    That's all very nice to know but not the point.

    If he picked dubs this could not have happened correct? That's all I've been saying

    What you're doing is providing an explanation why he chose another option which i don't disagree with

    So why you not saying he should have rested Joelinton considering he came off with a possible injury?
    Why risk Wilson and his dodgy hamstring?
    Etc etc

    I said I'd have played the u19s but what I think is irrelevant.

    If we did we'd have Pope next week

    Soo you’d potentially damage the careers of those u19 players just to potentially avoid missing one senior player in the final?

    Pope could have had an accident in the changing rooms as he was encouraging Dubs and broke his leg. Could that have happened? Yes or no?

    That's very nice but I said red card.

    Why is it people struggle with matter of fact so much.

    You're not bright enough or you're winding me up.

    No it’s not. That would be just of the debate

    I should have chosen 09, 35, 49, 52, 53, 58 as my lotto numbers last night, but I didn't.

    The thing is it was a decision not a prediction
