Douglas Luiz - coming back?

[Hookeysmith]

He's scored 5 home games in a row.
That's some achievement.
On 4 yellows so probably be suspended before Xmas but have to say he's been so wonderful and sometimes he makes football look so easy.
What a midfielder!

At the risk of sounding a bit… well, like you… an intentional booking might be handy on Sunday. He could play both legs v AZ and just miss the Luton game, in which we shouldn’t miss him too much. He then gets a fresh start for the busy run up to 19 games.

I like your thinking Percy.

I know it is actually cheating but its what "big" winning teams do - so i hope we do

It's not cheating if he spits in their manager's face after being subbed in injury time having scored the pen Moyse moaned about.

Surely it’s just a case of scoring an 89th minute winner then taking off the shirt and waving it about a bit, no? 

*cough* win/win *cough*

all he has to do s kick the ball away at a free kick

I can't believe I agree, but I do!
And I'm impressed by the understanding  of cynical methods in these posts on how to acquire a caution! People are being quite creative!

It feels a bit naughty and against the my nature , not to mention sporting behaviour, yet it's all part of the game at professional level. I have come to terms with these things for a while and look at it for the greater good and bigger picture -as it's for the love of our club!

Lucas Digne is also on 4 yellows , one away from a suspension. Any suggestions on how he too could pick up a booking?

[Footy-Vill]

Great efforts!

Say no more!
That would be fun!

This is the strategic play. Very effective when implemented. No one gets hurt!

That foul play may lead to more than a yellow.
I would have to draw the line at spitting.
Refusing to give the ball back when Moyes wants to retrieve it would suffice.

[Footy-Vill]

These are the options to obtain a yellow card. Oh this is so naughty!

-Unsafe or reckless play

-Disrespecting opponents

-Any offence (not only a foul) that interferes with or stops a promising attack

-Showing dissent, i.e. protesting or disagreeing publicly with a decision made by a match official

-Entering or re-entering the field of play without the referee's permission

-Improper celebrations, i.e. removing your shirt or entering spectator areas

-Entering the referee review area or excessively demanding a video 'review' in matches with VAR (video assistant referee)

-Deliberately leaving the field of play without the referee's permission

-Disrespecting opponents

What, pointing out that jellied eels taste like shit or saying something outrageous about Lady Brady?

Referee interpretations on that one I guess!
Very good though none the less!

[Footy-Vill]

Absolutely beautiful!! 6 in 6 . A record!
What a player just fantastic again today.

[Smirker]

If there is a clause in his current contract offer him a new one and get rid of it.

We have to keep hold of him.

[DrGonzo]

Adding goals to his passing and defensive work, along with being good from the penalty spot and a great set piece taker.....  He's the shit, isn't he?

[brontebilly]

Wins a lot of dirty ball these days, has improved out of all recognition in that part of his game. Goals will get the headlines but he's like a younger Verratti these days with his ability to play on the half turn.

[LukeJames]

To think many of us would've snatched Arsenals hands off for that £25m, What the fuck is he worth now? Ridiculous player.
