I wasn't discussing the logic of the option, just that I think it is another option.

You're missing an obvious fourth: 4) Hughton has assessed that Dunk's focus may be compromised by all the rumour and speculation so has taken him out of the firing line for now.

I think that's pretty fair currently.

The £5m story came from the mirror. 10:21 on this: http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/transfer-news-live-manchester-united-6271040

Did he? Or did he just say he was in his plans? There's a big difference between the two.

We'll, maybe a little bit.

Agreed. If I were to bet I'd be going for the "bench" option, but I have no inside information behind that.

There are three possibilities: - He starts - He's a sub - He's not in the 18 I'm not sure we could read anything definite in any of them. The second or third could simply mean that Hughton considers his mind not fully focused, for example, which would be quite understandable I think.

No we won't. If he doesn't start it doesn't mean it is because he has refused.

I wouldn't be surprised if he's in the squad but doesn't start. Those two posts didn't contradict each other.

I'm not.

I might be editing that to read 'squad' not 'team' if I were Andy. Just to cover my arse.

I can say, for a fact, that Dunk is on the bus and in the squad for tomorrow.
