I can see why so many want the ban to stand but I'd rather CFC not be restricted by this ban. As a matter of course, I think certain players (Tammy in particular) have done enough to get the nod and step up. The ban should be neither here nor there with the young lads in mind.

I do fear Higuain will get another spell ban or no ban, not what I want tbh because I see that as a blocker re Tammy. Happy to have Zouma back...Cahill out. If you want to go full on then Luiz out for Tamori is also another option and even though I adore David Luiz it's a move I could make sense of. Mount for Drinkwater...also Reece James has done enough to find a place. Plenty of options to be had but don't expect too many honours for a while. If Hazard does get on his bike (99% sure he will) then I'd be happy to have Zaha in as CHO matures.
