Do we get them both to “Take” yellows against Fulham and miss the Man City game? In order to get them both back for the mags? If they aren’t booked by 87 minutes!! I’d say yes for Dhaka for definite personally!!
I am sure I'm missing something but why would a care against Fulham mean they are banned for Man City? Isn't it Bournemouth after and thought it was only a one match ban for 5 cards? I expect them both to get a ban before the mags?
When I posted this, three or four weeks back, I got the impression people thought I was overreacting. The closer it gets the more serious it becomes in my opinion.
Hahahaha. Oops. Yeah you’re right!!! I honestly didn’t realise We had that many games before the Mags!! There are 4 between now and then!!
I think you have to keep playing them all the way to the Man City game. If they ain’t copped bans by then , keep em off the pitch and give them a rest pre Mags Fulham, Bournemouth & Mags all winnable, so we want full squads/teams out for those matches. Hopefully Diara is fit by then. I really hope his injury has ruled him out of Afcon. You’d think so.. By the time Afcon early stages is over, the yellow card ban will be reset by the time we play Spuds on 4th Jan
If they havnt picked up a ban before the game before Newcastle, rest them on the game before Newcastle. Xhaka, especially, could probably benefit with a mini break. No better time for one than before the town game.
