    Just out of interest, does anyone know when the cut off line for suspensions for 10 yellows is as I noticed Barton is on 9

    It's funny. If Tiote is playing against Man Utd, and Ireland plays with him in the middle with his old Man City form, they'd be near enough one of the best centre midfield pairings on paper in terms of skill and ability. Couple that with Barton on one side, and Jonas on the other, and that's one rock solid midfield team.

    It all depends how Ireland plays.

    Don't know but there's no way he won't get booked against Man United , so he'll probably miss Blackpool and Liverpool away.

    Well we already know how good Tiote is, and we've seen in the past that Ireland can be almost unplayable when hes on his game, so if we get behind him, show him hes welcome get his confidence up, he could be massive for us. And a good eventual replacement for Nolan.

    Baring in mind that he hasn't played regularly to a high standard for about 2 years...

    Ben Arfa Ireland Nolan Tiote Barton as a five man midfield would be interesting to see mind you, could see plenty of goals in that behind a good striker.

    When we drew 2-2 at home with City Ireland was the best player on the pitch by a mile
