his no show against the Wednesday's as being due to his being on 9 yellows and not wanting to miss Chelsea? If so, drop him Davey
I think it more a case of Laws doing his homework and getting his midfielders to get very tight on him. Laws said as much in his post match interview.
Dont think Davey would want to lose him for Chelsea game and instructed him to be sensible. Otherwise Hassell and Leon in midfield.
He just can't afford a booking AT ALL I think there is a fair chance that SD has asked him to be VERY CAREFUL - at least in the short term. Brian is our only "fit" central midfield player at the moment, so I wouldn't be surprised if he has been told to keep his nose clean (at least in the short term).
