Tuanzebe
Same here. Some info on him:I have never heard of Tuanzebe until now.
Are you honestly surprised?Rooney starts
How else do young players get chances other then through injuries? Many managers would still pick an experienced player just in a different position instead of going like for like, center back in for center back even if he's a youngster.Well, he does give them a chance. But Tuanzebe a bad example. If others were fit he wouldn't be near the bench.
Don't think that's true. Firstly young players do get chances if they are good, and LVG has proven he is willing to do that. Secondly plenty of managers will our youth on the bench instead of an experienced option out of position. Not all but most.How else do young players get chances other then through injuries?

JONES IN THE RED ZONE
We can confirm that Phil Jones is not playing today because manager Louis van Gaal has said the defender is in the 'red zone' in terms of his fitness.
So he's injured is he? If not how are you going to get his fitness up to scratch?
For me, yeah.Who did people think would play instead to not get 11? Jones?
Same here, but it's an improvement on my recent form. No chance with the subs.I'm tired of getting 10/11
...eh?JONES IN THE RED ZONE

Yep.Who did people think would play instead to not get 11? Jones?
That's from the official matchday blog. What exactly does he mean? Is red zone his latest phrase?
Who knows these days, van Gaal is a looney.That's from the official matchday blog. What exactly does he mean? Is red zone his latest phrase?
He said it prior to the Middlesborough game - 'some players are in the red zone' but he never expanded on what that exactly meant. Guess it just means Jones is a bit knackered.That's from the official matchday blog. What exactly does he mean? Is red zone his latest phrase?
If he can walk (running optional), unassisted = he will be in the starting XIFFS, what's it going to take for Rooney to be dropped?
One of his staff must say these things and he just thinks, Hmmmm. I like that.Who knows these days, van Gaal is a looney.
Yes - redzone means that the player has played too many games, in too short a time and is suffering from fatigue.He said it prior to the Middlesborough game - 'some players are in the red zone' but he never expanded on what that exactly meant. Guess it just means Jones is a bit knackered.
You sure about that?If he can walk, unassisted = he will be in the starting XI
If he requires crutches to walk = he will be on the bench.
If both legs are broken and he is wheelchair bound = he will be dropped completely.
Does that answer your question?
It is how teams measure a players likelyhood of getting injured in a game situation, Wenger has mentioned it numerous times.That's from the official matchday blog. What exactly does he mean? Is red zone his latest phrase?
He didn't pay during the week. Isn't a weeks rest enough?Yes - redzone means that the player has played too many games, in too short a time and is suffering from fatigue.
We have our plan B on the bench.We have no game changing options from the bench.
He hasn't played a lot this season and didn't have a proper pre-seasonHe didn't pay during the week. Isn't a weeks rest enough?
