No, only if they hand in a transfer request for not playing, then get a chance and make a red card potential leg-breaking tackle 2 minutes into the match.
Thanks Charlie, I needed a good laugh this morning.
I was thinking that this would a great time for the board to offer to extend Ralph's contract by 2 more years.
I see Poch is trying is best to maintain his status as the world's greatest manager who has won sweet F. A. (not counting a recent French Charity Shield).
I was responding to the poster who said we were abysmal. We weren't. We may not have been great, but despite the errors you mentioned we did create a number of decent chances, not to mention the 3 diabolical decisions that went against us.
You seem to be confusing us with the officials. We won that match 3-1. Not just the penalty and offside, also Romeu didn't foul their GK when he dropped it and it ended up in the net.
That would be a reasonable compromise. If the club offers that and he refuses then it would mean he wants to leave soon, and as others have said the release clause talk is basically a load of bollocks, just an attempt to make it appear otherwise.
