Don't, the plane would land on us knowing our luck.

I agree that it should be looked at because of the tackle and not the injury.

They are the two bones in your leg so it doesn't get much worse when it comes to a footballer breaking bones.

The tackle should be looked at again and something done about it. The referee awarded a penalty against us for a less dangerous tackle so he couldn't have seen this one properly or he couldn't have just ignored it.

Ben Arfa is contracted to us until the end of the season, we can't send him back and they can't re-call him. We probably will let him go home for a while but he'll be back if the injury allows him to play a part for us.

I didn't think he was too bad and thought he'd also been badly injured when he went down after having been studded.

I was looking forward to the Wigan game and I'm not sure I would be now if it was next week.

I'm glad we've got a couple of weeks off for the internationals.

He looks to be our best central midfielder since Batty or Rob Lee.

I'm more gutted for the player than I am for us. As somebody else has said somewhere, he can't even speak English and he's stuck in a Manchester hospital.

I'm still angry for so many reasons and I think they were all out of our control.

He was spot on with his subbing of Nolan, pity he was started though.

I'm not trying to have a go at Hughton because he wasn't as bad as soome are saying. Still, I can't see anything in how Nolan played that could justify how well he's possibly trained. If Hughton picks him based on training even though he offers very little during a game then he deserves all of the stick he gets.

Tiote is one of the best midfielders we've had in years going by what I've seen from him so far.

I've just seen it again in more detail and the follow through was way over the top.

What the players do in training is irrelevant if they don't do it on match days.

Hughton only had two things to do today, the first was the line-up and playing Nolan was a mistake. The first two substitutions were made for him and he got the last one sopt on.

Coloccini and Campbell has to be our best pairing at the centre of our defence.

Yes, Nolan.

You've sussed him as well as anybody else has.

Agreed, I thought that he did well today and I'm not really a big fan of his.

I haven't seen anything like that, it looks like I'm clutching at straws.

So would I but I think Nolan would still get a game if he was the one with no legs, in fact...

I still have hope that it's just badly bruised but knowing our luck he'll have both legs amputated tonight.
