Good to have Mangala back. Give MDM a rest. Hope Silva is somewhere near match fitness. Bony and Nacho back is great as well.

If he does play next Tuesday after we've asked for him not to I'd leave him on the bench for a while to prove a point and stick with the Mang and the Otter.

If we have asked him to not play next week and he goes against the clubs wishes. I would strip him of the captaincy immediately. What kind of example is that setting to the rest of the squad and academy.
I don't care how big a game it is for his national team, it would be totally disrespectful.
I would not appoint Yaya either. It would be Hart all the way.
This is all conjecture until something happens of course.

IMO we are over reacting here. VK is intensely patriotic and will want to play for his country but only if he is fit. We should not threaten him. Personally, I would trust VK to make the required call.

That's where we differ. It's NOT his call to make. He is not a qualified doctor/physio and going against his clubs direct orders would be construed as misconduct. I know this is only hypothetical but it's no Vinny choice.
