Apparently the surgery is not certain yet: http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11668/8079259/?utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=twitterfeed

Came off at half time. Good to to see him get 45 mins under his belt. Still may need another 45mins to get back to full fitness.

Exactly, if he was a teenage youngster I would have understood, but for an established senior player like Ash this behavior is not good for his reputation.

This is a bit over the top from Ashley imho. No need to attack them even if what he is saying is true.

I'll just put it in my sig I mean I don't like to gloat

I love it when our players return home Best of luck to him.

Sure mate From RDM's conference today:

I actually think the handshakes are somewhat important. Firstly, they're a reminder that football is a sport and after all it's just a game. It's also a sign of respect to the opponent, albeit one that is just on the surface, but I believe it is important to what message the game sends out especially to all the kids around the world who watch the EPL and idolize the players.

I reckon the FA should come out and say whoever does refuses to shake an opposition player's hand will not be allowed to play.

Yup, I think that is the most likely lineup we'll see tomorrow. Sturidge and Oscar to come on in the second half so Hazard and Torres are rested before Juve.

Don't necessarily regard it as a problem, just Ferdinand showing the world he has no class.

Should be, though RDM will probably have to decide if he is match fit yet.

Thanks everyone. This really is an honor. I love this forum and I am very glad I could help the great staff team here

Anyone else laughing his pants off at the fact that Bosingwa is likely to be up against Hazard tomorrow? :lol2:

If he plays anywhere near like he did in preseason, he'll (hopefully) rip them apart

Steve, that was epic!

RDM said that he will play for the U21s tonight so he will miss QPR.

RDM: 'We don't have any injuries. Marin won't be in the squad for QPR as he is playing in the U21s tonight'

Great decision by Robbie. The man obviously needs a break.

The amount of articles, if you can call them that, about this handshake non-issue is absolutely ridiculous. This is some really shit journalism: http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/4537585/QPR-stars-plot-to-blank-JT-and-Ash.html

BM doesn't know shit

No he didn't. I should know, I watched the interview

But Eddie also said that Oscar can play in Lampard's role and David may play in Mikel's.

How is that we don't have enough players for a two-man midfield but enough for a three-man midfield?

You racist bastard! I think it will be another hard-fought win for us. I hope we get a two goal cushion in the first 60 mins so RDM can rest some players for our clash with Juve on Wednesday.
