he knows he's gambling with Viera-but he wants to keep DeJong from suspension

Sylvinho at LB too. If i was laws i'd be telling eagles to run at him all game.

Don't get me wrong here I think Viera is pretty poor and a pointless signing really but at the same time him alongside Barry today makes a lot more sense than playing De Jong. We really shouldn't need a player like De Jong against Burnley and he offers too little attack wise to be effective in a standard 4-4-2 no matter who the opposition is
