David Edgar

That's not how it works. If he is carrying a long term injury that is only going to improve with rest and recovery, then he absolutely needs time out at the earliest opportunity. Every manager is going to balance out allowing their players to recover versus getting the best team on the pitch relative to the situation the club finds themselves in. There's always gonna be a chance here that Joelinton would've been on the pitch if we were desperate, but we can absolutely afford to rest him now. Of course, you could be right and he could have a new knock which means he just cannot play. But we do know he has had this problem for a while.

We're probably giving him much needed R&R now we look safe.

Somehow we have done okay without Steve The Human Shield Bruce.

£80m.

HOT TAKE DENIED

Hot take: are Brentford going to become too reliant on an unfit Eriksen?

I mean, this will just be another game without a win for the cabbage.

Andy Carroll has arrived

Haha gifted.

That just isn't a pen

One of these teams is well drilled. The other has Steve Bruce in charge.

Beautiful. Brings an extra striker on and concedes. Like clockwork.

Booooooooo

He's busy telling them to roll their sleeves up and go again.

Boooooooo

Huddersfield manager going for a Rimmer salute at every opportunity.

LOL

Hatewatching is a valid pastime.

WBA not pressing as much under Bruce? I find that shocking.

This lot are so small time

Fwiw, Salisu looked just offside so probs wouldn't have counted. Was a good stop.

Played well this evening.

See ya.

Paqueta

Not Lampard's fault according to sky.
