Some ifs but if Arteta's project fails after this season and Vieira continues to get Palace doing as well as he's been doing, should Vieira be a serious contender for the reigns?

If it’s a draw after ninety minutes tonight does anyone know if it goes straight to a penalty shoot out or is there half an hour extra time first?

Yo Bern - this from the rules:

"All matches that end as a draw in the first five rounds will go straight to penalties without the use of extra time."

This is Round 4 apparently so straight to pens. It's live on SKY.

Intense start, the energy I wanted to see is there it seems.

Our central midfield is an obvious weakness tonight, can't seem to hold onto the ball or find the right pass

Not much mention of the fact that Ronaldo should have been sent off in yesterday's game for a petulant kick out at Curtis when he lay on the floor. For every last minute winner Ronaldo brings I think his signing is doing more damage than good, there are the obvious wages but also you're playing with 10 men when you don't have the ball and he is definitely not a team player ready to encourage others after a mistake. Long may it continue for him.

Looks to me like Emile Smith Rowe needs a rest, he looks shattered.

Don't like the tactic of the centrebacks driving into midfield. That naturally causes the two central midfielders to funnel in behind to cover. Also, it makes it harder for Smith-Rowe as passing channels to him are cut-off.

Leeds always leave gaps at the back so early direct passing is the way to play them.

That's all the hair chat for tonight
