I thought exactly the same myself as soon as I saw the team sheet, although you wonder why he wasn't shipped out on loan because I believe there was at least one Dutch Erdeveise club interested. Maybe GP intends to start him against Villa.
Actually I assumed it was a typo but as you decided to take offence, it's now apparent that you don't actually know his name. There is absolutely no need for me to try and make you look stupid as you seem perfectly capable of doing that yourself.
Maybe you've got those two the wrong way round?
You're assuming Ali J wasn't injured but that Bernardo or Montoya weren't dropped for tactical reasons.
I was wondering why the software didn't insert the necessary asterisks, although post #3 seems to have got through too. Anyway, looks like Bozza is on the case.
Sorry, I should have made it clear that BNthree identified the offensive remark on page 2 here http://nortr3nixy.nimpr.uk/showthread.php?375306-Alexei-Sayle-what-a-piece-of-shit&p=9070105&viewfull=1#post9070105
I am also sorry for starting this thread in the first place.
Richards showed a lot more of the flair that we all know he has, compared to 3 other matches I've seen him in (that back-heeIed pass was exquisite!) Wouldn't surprise me that much to see him on the bench for the League Cup 3rd Round.
