If his knee is sore he needs to come off. Only the player knows if he is in pain. Any discomfort coming back from injury and he should be straight off. Just don't risk it.
Yes,we had a little Latvian genius who unfortunately always thought he had pain,and we never saw enough of him.
I'd just like to know as there is a limit to my vitriol. There's only so much to divide between Manure, Stoke, Chelsea, Mourinho,....... You can't just waste it on nump ties.
Just saw Saints match review on Sky....at last. That goal gets better...Puel says Boufal could be interesting in the future. Glad he told me or I might have ignored the lad.
I think he emerged briefly on Monday. Glad to see him back playing, even if it is just to let Liverpool know we have a CB they can buy next summer.
I have a funny feeling Newcastle are going to win the League Cup this year as well as get promotion. Benitez, while he may lack something at a top club like RM, does know how to win cups with the teams he has managed in the past. So squeeze past Hull and then get one of Arsenal/Southampton and roared on by 50,000 Geordies in a home semi could be quite daunting for the opposition.
Olomola talking about his debut. We mustn't underestimate how hard this is for the youngsters....especially when it isn't just one of them in an otherwise experienced team. It must be like being used to performing for your Mum and Dad and suddenly being asked to play the Albert Hall.
We actually got some praise on SSN, annoying that their pundit couldn't remember the name of our "new" full back! They said that every team we have played against this season have been surprised how good we are!
Mr Puel confirmed that Soph was not supposed to do more than 80 minutes, but had to continue due to the circumstances.
I wouldn't. It's nice to be entertained. So far, he's like Fabrice Fernandes - my favourite player of the Strachan era - but with an end product of far greater potency.
This is where we differ, Fernandes frustrated me. But I suppose you're right. If it wasn't for SB, there wasn't a lot to watch last night. Unless sideways passes is your things.

I am sure, by the time the BBC boys, on Football Focus, get round to mentioning this game (should it happen), Boufal's goal will be considered an open invite to Liverpool et al to bid for him in the summer. He should have shinned it. Reference Harrison Reed. I saw many comments, last season, indicating that he wasn't playing well enough for the U23s to be considered for a first team game, yet every time he has played he hasn't let himself, or the team, down. Another plus for Claude. I think Olomola, as a small guy, needs to have a look at how players like Tadic and Long get their bodies between the ball and the defender, preventing them coming round the side, to dispossess him, as happened quite often last night. I'm sure it will come with experience.
I hope he isn't like Fernandes as he always went missing when the going got tough especially during the more physical games.
Maybe. But he had more natural ability in his enigmatic left foot than all the beefy cloggers who made up the rest of that team had in their whole bodies.
