I wonder if City have a similar plank on their board who cried about de brunye being played after an injury? Or salah for Liverpool

(and no, smooth Indian, I’m not comparing them... but rashy is a key player for us)

Ddg back then.

Rash not fit enough for 90 minutes. Probably could have been rested altogether.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So what’s the narrative for Dave’s return to the starting XI do we think?

Europa league, so giving second choice a run out?

Or, big game in a knockout tournament so playing the strongest available team?

Not one of us on here know how fit or unfit Rashy is atm?

We can surmise and speculate but I'd assume he and Ole may have chatted about it and decided between them what is best.

Last January Rashford was out with a back injury for a couple of months and it was widely agreed that he had been allowed to play through pain too often. He's obviously a willing kid - just hope that isn't what is happening again.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It's just speculation as to whether that's the case or not tonight. He might be fit, he might not be. People should wind their necks in until the game starts and they see how he's playing.

Imagine if Ole blamed the stadium in the pre match presser. Facking lolz

I remember when Judy Finnigan was at Granada.

Agreed - but after it happening once it's a little reasonable to worry. Definitely more than happy though to assume lessons have been learned and obviously pleased to have him back.

I'm thinking Henderson's run has come to an end.

Do you remember when massive city fan Stuart Hall was on Granada?

I think the keepers’ roles have swapped ... ddg for the cups , hendo for the PL

I’m gonna put my foot down here, anyone that’s gonna be using this thread to bait the other over the manager gets banned.

Hope arsenal have another shocker tonight. I know I should just be concentrating on utd and not "being obsessed" with some other team... But it just adds a little something extra to your day. Like putting salt on your chips.

Good to see DDG back. Still our best GK.

good news

Couple of ex PL players in the Granada team. Roberto Soldado, Kenedy and someone called Yangel Hererra who's on loan from City. He's supposed to be quite good.

Forgot you were playing tonight
Thursdays the night for the diddy teams
Bless
