Nigel De Jong

[Manchester_City_Blue]

Nigel de Jong is also one booking away from a two-game ban, but if he can get through the next two fixtures without receiving a yellow card he will have passed the threshold for suspensions for the latter part of the season.

I think Burnley away he get's a yellow........

Wondering whether its worth resting him for the Burnley game. We can't afford for him to be suspended vs United and Arsenal.

Out of interest, what is the suspension? 1 or 2 games? If it's one he should have got himself booked last night.

Whats the threshold about mate? Didn't know about that. I got a shock when I saw Tevez has 7 yellow for the season and wondered if by some madness he gets 3 in the next 3 games, he'll miss the end of the season. Would the threshold be passed for him too then?

and play viera instead? No thanks!

Having just looked at the rules I think the 10 bookings/2 match ban happens regardless. It's only the 5 yellow cards after half way through the season that is relaxed.

Thought Zabba got booked last night therefore has got 10 yellows so misses next two games.
