Virgil van Dijk

Why would a captain need to understand the patterns of play (anymore than other players)?

He is the leader on the pitch telling someone to watch this run of an opposition player, using their experience to help others around them? Probably easier to do that from the middle of the pitch as a CB/CM than a forward?

"Succession Plan" activated!

Some obvious thoughts (to some) from The Manager, prior to the official captaincy announcement, on leadership behind the scenes in light of the alleged all-pervasive influence of "The Former Captain":

TLDR - Leadership: It's a team game.

Its incredible. You seem completely incapable of posting anything without having a dig at a random nebulous group of our own supporters. It’s dead odd.

Yep WUM for sure

Needs to make himself big and block shots rather than constantly turning his back to them. Otherwise good game

Any word on an appeal, or are we just taking this dismissal?

Will it be a one or two match ban? Virg did call Brooks "a ****ing joke" if my lip reading skills are correct. Gave Pawson a piece of his mind too as he went off down the tunnel.

“A cracking bloke”

One match ban from what I’ve seen.

If it is for the offence alone then it is a one match ban, if dissent gets added then it could be anything from a two match ban up to as high as a four match ban.

Depends, afaik, on whether or not what VVD said to the ref and then to the fourth official was added to the match report or not.

Think a one match ban we accept, but a much higher one we might appeal to see if we can get it reduced.

I don't think that one is quite worth an appeal to be honest.

Yep unless he gets an extra few weeks for mouthing off , which he shouldn’t imo.
