A day too early. He'll speak tomorrow - kerfuffle on Friday - on the Ref's mind, Saturday.
I'd like Coyle to do the same regarding the diving, whining and cheating that their lot employ every time they come up to our place.

I can see it now: "I think what I'd like to see the referees clamp on more, that always gets our boys unstuck, is all this one-touch passing. The game can really run away from you and if the referee ignores it, I think we're going to see a really one-sided game which is obviously not what the fans want to see."

Absolutely. Comments ended with "... and then, if you want to loan one of their players, they tell you to tell everyone that what they've just seen wasn't actually what they saw".

He won't be fit on Saturday. He clearly hurt himself on purpose yesterday to avoid a confrontation with Robbo the Rock. :mrgreen:

Wenger seems to like Bolton under Coyle more than previously, and any further "You Know What To Expect" would further polish his reputation as Queen Whinge.

Interesting formation, looking forward to seeing how Mavies and Holden play off each other. Perhaps Muamba will also have it easier focusing on defense and having two outlets in front of him.

Other than that the only thing that really worries me is the young Hungarian in goal.

Whoever is normally tasked with goalie-red-card/injury-after-3-subs-have-been-made duties? Zat Knight? :shock:

Er, no. Why would you want to drop an attacking, pacy midfielder who's happy as Larry to have signed a contract for double his salary?
