wayne allisons tongues Posted December 27, 2017 Report Share Posted December 27, 2017 Am I right in thinking that was Marlon 10th booking yesterday and he now has a 2 match ban. Going to miss him in cm if so and will have to reshape team whilst he’s missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cider Queen Posted December 27, 2017 Report Share Posted December 27, 2017 I thought it was his 9th.. Hope so anyway.. Been a revelation recently finally looks like a proper midfielder! We need him for wolves! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinman85 Posted December 27, 2017 Report Share Posted December 27, 2017 He had suddenly developed this strength and combative style mixed with long range passing and delivery. Great transformation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRISTOL86 Posted December 27, 2017 Report Share Posted December 27, 2017 He’s always been a really tidy player, people just couldn’t see it when the team results were poor. Has improved under LJ though for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alessandro Posted December 27, 2017 Report Share Posted December 27, 2017 He is also developing the playmaking side of his game - in recent games ‘that’ pass to set Bryan up against united and similarly good ball into Bobby yesterday to lay off for the first goal, off the top of my head. The guy is just improving all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrightCiderLife Posted December 27, 2017 Report Share Posted December 27, 2017 The cynic in me says he will play against Wolves and then if he avoids a booking he will definitely pick one up against Villa so he misses Watford and Man City away so he can come back fighting in the league and will play the home leg against Man City.

RoystonFoote'snephew Posted December 27, 2017 Report Share Posted December 27, 2017 You can’t hide your better players away. Why not get booked on Saturday and then miss Watford and Man City away in the cups, to be back for the league programme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phileas Fogg Posted December 27, 2017 Report Share Posted December 27, 2017 Pack has potentially got lots of time left in his career. Seeing as his game has never really relied on athleticism or speed; injuries permitting he could comfortably play at this level for another 8 years or so. His passing and intelligence on the ball will probably improve too if anything. Key player for us who’s improved massively. Would like to see him get a few more goals because he hits a ball so well.

Yes I think you're right, so a yellow against Villa means he can rest up during our two cup games against Watford and Man City to come back in the league. Probably too hard to predict these things though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

italian dave Posted December 27, 2017 Report Share Posted December 27, 2017 Does he get longer than one game next time though? I thought that if you'd already had a ban by Nov (which he has) the next was longer. Or maybe that's old rules; they seem to change every year!

Lanterne Rouge Posted December 27, 2017 Report Share Posted December 27, 2017 3 hours ago, El Hombrecito said: Because he'd miss Villa? I`m not sure of the exact rules but there used to be a period before a ban took effect so if he did get booked v Wolves we might be OK for him to play v Villa. Then of course, if it`s a two match one he`ll only miss cup matches. Someone will know for definite though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
