    Putting Boufal out there is a risk, but I guess we're in position to take those risks. But if we're risking, I would rather give game time to Sims.

    He may just have forgotten. Last time he asked for the coach to be opened again so he could collect something from inside. In a world of his own.

    Hull is more important than tonight. Rotating Boufal and Redmond ahead of that.

    Watch out for the sneaky ankle tap on Gabbi early doors.

    yes, the season has no real objectives position wise so giving Boufal some game time to show what he can do is a good move

    I understand wanting to give academy players minutes, but we've invested a hell of a lot on Boufal and he needs the minutes too

    Which goes unnoticed, only for the same to happen to Hazard and for our player to get a 5 match ban?

    I'm still quite positive about Boufal, for some reason I have this fantasy about him playing up front (sort of) for us. Redmond can come off the bench if we're still in it, or just slaughter Hull on Saturday.

    It's not really about giving minutes to academy player. I think Sims is the future and he can also offer more on the pitch at the moment, and has the advantage of not annoying me endlessly.

    What this means to the title race, if you care (what do you mean you don't?)

    I trust Sims more. I'm not sure if that says more about the youngster......or the record signing.

    On the other hand, Tadić and Boufal might just prove to be too devilishly tricky for Chelsea to handle.

    Redmond is playing well though.

    Cheers mate <ok>

    Bit gutted Redmond has been dropped... if Boufal is to come in would rather Tadic be dropped personally. Redmond been one of our best players since turn of the year.

    Anyway... up the ****ing Saints <ok>

    Usually go to pub for Saints match but not really up for this match and Boufal starting has convinced me I have made right decision to stay home. Hope I am proved wrong.
