But that was the problem last time when they took Finn, Tremlett and Rankin - taking a punt on the fact that they could bowl fast and generate bounce. That worked well. Pick players who are playing well. Not sure about Ball or Overton, as neither will play unless one of Broad, Anderson or Woakes can't play due to injury, and I would rather have another spinner than watch Ball again.

Hard to know which is the aggressor in this situation, with idiots on both sides calling each other schoolyard names. Need someone to take the mature, diplomatic approach - ho, hum

When did this become news?

FYP

But those are the circumstances, and, as with Shelvey, there are simply too many cameras around to avoid being caught. This could have been avoided by not doing it in the first place. It was completely off the ball and to no discernible purpose, other than he could. There is little point in railing against the rules, although I understand the double standards. Should the severity of the injury impact on the punishment, or does one simply look at the incident. If Lejeune had not been injured, merely fouled, would we believe that the yellow card was insufficient? I don't know, but probably (possibly) not.

Ridiculous to have accepted payment over 6 years

But those are the rules and, like Shelvey before him, there was absolutely no need to put himself in that position.

I was too

Could Merino or Shelvey be a #10, allowing us to have both in the team? Or even swap between those positions during the game to keep the opposition on their toes?

He had a fairly major ego as well, though

This, clearly. If some of our "better" players who were rested had been injured tonight, then he would have been criticised for playing them. He can't win on that basis. That was a clear statement to the fat man that he needs better players than those we have.

FYP I could live with it until you said you ate puppies!

As he always intended

We got our box this weekend. Wish I hadn't now

I thought we made a 30m profit last year on transfers. So, if we have spent 30m this year, we should still have the funds from the sales of players, such as Murphy, Thauvin, the young lad to Everton. That should have been enough for Perez or similar. So, where is all the money the club makes?
