Regardless of him being a bit mental he's still comfortably our best central midfielder (of all the available ones) and should be starting.

I think he will. Only threat to his position is when/if Santi comes back. He at least should be fresh. He's like a footballing Dylan Hartley* - you want him in your team when he is available


*of a couple of years ago

I fully concur. So much silliness surrounds the reporting of this player.

You could argue the two reds he got were harsh as well. I've seen similar or worse challenges than the ones he got sent off for nearly every weekend. It's not like he goes around kicking people like a Lee Cattermole, or that **** who plays for Burnley and spent the whole game kicking our players.
