According the interview I just read, Zouma remains available for selection on Sunday so absolutely zero suspension from the club.

Quite right I'm afraid. He has been fined the maximum. He has been offered help to sort out why he's such a moron. RSPCA are set to send him on courses or something

Why let him hide away? Make him suffer what the foxes think

I think that for 95% of the time the managers hammer the ref as a deflection tactic. The Arsenal player was sent off for reasons of idiocy but why touch on that and the appalling red card record under Arteta when he can deflect and blame the ref? Wolves lost, struggle to score goals. Don't talk about that, blame the ref for their shortcomings. It happens game after game, most managers. It's a cop out.

Clearly refs will make errors, decisions can be inconsistent, although we are dealing with humans so that is not that unusual, but ultimately the managers embarrass themselves post match most of the time.

I dont actually watch the post match interviews or pretty much any commentary at all these days, agree most of what is said is rubbish/deflection

There is definitely a stupidity issue at Arsenal and has been for several years

That doesnt deflect from the fact that some of the decisions are so inconsistent with others and the last few mths Arsenal have been on the wrong end of alot of those inconsistencies regarding red cards

In their prime who you taking?

Hazard a distant last. Pretty sure I'd have Bale, he was immense in his prime. I thought he had potential to become best in world, but possibly thwarted by going to Madrid and being in the shadow of Ronaldo, and his apparent poor work ethic.

I'd probably also take him in my Texas Scramble team.

Yes agree with all of that.

Bale, by a distance.

Surely depends on how your team is set up

Salahs goal record for us is outstanding and Bales best season overall is 26 - Salah is a machine , more reliable as well best season for us was 44 and every season since has been untouchable

I would have the Hazard at Chelsea before Bale but imo it’s Salah and it’s not close.

I have Salah at a level above both
 
To an extent it depends on who is in the rest of the team. Bale in full flow was / is as exciting as it gets, Salah scores a lot of goals ( I have it between them). If there is an out and out goal scorer in the team then I'd go Bale but if not then I'll take Salah.
