MrBass 3177 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 How do yellow cards work in this comp? Is it two yellows and you miss the next game? If that's the case, we're without Gordon and Livramento for the second leg as they both picked up their second yellows last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 34173 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 They were cleared after the QFs so no more risk of bans from yellows. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobElliott 1994 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Noticed for Martinellis miss when through, that Botman was a lot slower than BDB in getting back, hopefully it's just a fitness thing and not lost a yard of pace after the injury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think his positioning was always his main strength and it's understandable that hasn't been quite as good playing on the right side so far. Still thought overall he was very good mind. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand He's grown in the two games. He started off rusty against spurs and got better throughout. I don't think he looked like a player that had missed a year last night, he looked almost as good as I ever remember. But aye, he was always a slow player - just a left footed Schar pinging champagne passes all over the place and putting his body on the line for everything. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their players were visibly gutted when a ball was blocked for a throw rather than a corner. That’s down to coaching. They didn’t have much from open play. Expand How about their set piece coach running down the touchline to try and keep them onside? And legohead has the nerve to complain about mad dog. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wykikitoon 23723 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 A manager coming out every now and then, fine, if you're trying to get a message across to a player in the centre of the pitch you may stray out.
