Apologies if this has been done. With Catts on 9 yellow cards do we risk him at the weekend knowing that if/when he gets booked he will miss the derby
I wouldn't risk him this week, we definitely need him for the derby to kick the **** out of Demba ba.
Does the 10 card rule last until the End of February? Personally I would play him against West Brom. Three points to be had. I can smell them!
Every game you should play your best team avilable - and Cattermole is part of that team so yes, he starts for me The most important game is not the Newcastle game (yet) - it will be in 4 days but not yet - the most important game is the WBA game - 3 points there and 3 points from the mags and we COULD be only one win away from them (although they are home to Wolves this week so unlikely!) - Within 6 points would be nice
Oh - and anothe rpoint - 3 points this weekend would see us within 3 points of Liverpool (OK so they'll have a game in hand) but they then play Arsenal when we play the mags - and if Arsenal can turn it back on and beat them and we can beat (or get a point even) against Newcastle then the game against Liverpool could put us above them (win against the Mags will put us above them on GD if they lose to Arsenal!!)....... Now how good would that be - I detest the scousers almost as much as I do the Mags!
