Ramsey famously described Martin Peters as being "ten years ahead of his time". As football shifted from the W formation to 4-2-4, midfielders were not seen as an attacking force, which was left to the wingers and strikers. In Peters, he had at his disposal a box-to-box midfielder posing a threat in attacking areas and laying a blueprint for future midfielders such as Bryan Robson, David Platt and Frank Lampard.
That decision would change the game. It would probably not be such an enjoyable game, one team with one player more for an hour is a big advantage. I think it's a clear red card.

The EFL told BBC Sport it has "open and regular dialogue with the Government and relevant stakeholders regarding football's ongoing relationship with the gambling industry".

Liverpool are big favorites here, but Watford could make a miracle. There are two reasons for my pick. First, Liverpool players are very tired, especially the full backs, as well as Van Dijk.

I am aware that both teams are actually better on the road and that the host have just one win in 8 home games so far this season but really I mean the hosts the big team is a top 6 club in the Premier League this season they just drew 1-1 away at Arsenal and have other great results there, while Crewe, is just a promotion candidate in the 4th league level at this moment, so there has to be better reserve players for the hosts in this one.
