Me too, but if I could choose I'd rather have Ayew than Bony. More pace.

If your looking to play either in the box, then for me it would be Bony, his ability to hold up the ball, his aerial power, power shooting,plus his shear presence in the box. All this of course down to a ultra fit Bony.

Nice problem to have if it came about. But being the greedy sod I am I'd like both.

If shape was to include two up front then Bony and Ayew together would be an almost unstoppable combination in the Championship.

And todays good news is Cardiff are 2-0 down at H/Time.

It's easy when you have both Pele and Puscas in your starting XI.

!0 Championship clubs play tonight, just two of them have the opportunity to drop us one place, Derby & Sheff Wed. Wednesday have the chance to top the table with a win against Luton.

Dan James scores prefect goal for Man U but in vain.

Plus Ayew J got one for the other side. They must have learnt something at the Liberty!!

Two goals in three games. And this goal was a beauty.

Yes, actually picked his spot.

 

[Borini]

He was booked again for simulation... But he was kicked above the knee... That should be rescinded if they challenge the booking.

I guess you only can challenge red cards?

Gareth Bale had a similar problem. He was so fast the slightest contact made him fall, not that we believed him at the time (except in a Wales shirt).

Bit unfair if that is the case. What if a second yellow becomes a red.?

 

[ivoralljack]

Unfortunately this is a consequence of idiot referees who have never played the game at a decent level and have no conception whatsoever of what happens when a quick player goes down. Of course some players milk the situation and deservedly get booked but, for so many others, it often takes only a slight nudge to send them tumbling because of the pace they are travelling at. But weak referees (unfortunately there are many of them) grab a cheap opportunity to show themselves in a strong light.

Of course there was contact on Dan and if he has no right of appeal then patently this is an unfair rule and needs amending as a matter of urgency.

The rule FA Handbook 2017/18, Part 1(5)(a) states “[a] claim of wrongful dismissal may be lodged only for on-field offences which result in a sending off, except for two cautions leading to a dismissal”.

Notably, therefore, a dismissal resulting from two yellow cards, as opposed to a straight red, does not entitle a player to appeal against his one-match suspension. Nor can a player appeal a yellow card, even if it is his fifth of the season and means he is suspended in accordance with Part 1(8)(a)
