Totally agree with Hughes that things need to be sorted quickly after the season ends, that is absolutely vital with the shortened transfer window and the current state of our squad. Also makes a mockery of the calls for Reed and Krueger to go, those are the people who will be needing to make this quick decision.

He only has one year left on his contract so in a strong poaition but will want to be a no1 somewhere you would imagine. Hopefully signs a new deal with us.

Bertrand's comments about Hughes and Saints were largely past tense. He will go I think. Has been a great signing and replaced Shaw brilliantly but has done his time here now I think.

The only thing I miss about Puel is that Ralphy called him Clode.

Thats ridiculous. If he looked after his conditioning better he wouldn't have missed so many games. Also got a 3 match ban at a hugely vital time because he randomnly decided to lick their keeper in the head. It didnt matter because of the injury, which is kind of ironic.

Question marks possibly over fitness and maybe he will play a big part at Chelses but if RLC was available for a reasonable ish fee I would be all over that.

Voted Lemina for goal of the season because Boufal is a jerk.

The absolute first requirement has to be a couple of competent centre backs.

Was 150/1 last night before Hudds had played! Need a good start in our game and then we should be fine, but its not beyond the realms of possibility for City to win 6-0 and Swansea 4-0.

Excellent goalkeeper. Get him signed on a new deal, only has a year left.

Our big players really stood up tonight. Cedric and Bertrand who take stick were both great. McCarthy excellent. What a job Hughes has done.

Some good reviews! One of the highlights of the season.

Agree. Ultimately we just haven't quite done enough and I think Everton will have taken a lot out of us physically and mentally.

If we go down, he has done more than enough to remain in the PL I would imagine.

Could be once Amla goes, especially if Northeast misses a few more Champ games. Batting and backup seamers still poor.

Cedric was down for more than a minute. Its just terrible luck, in a season where the last few minutes of games have not generally been kind.

Simple now - beat Swansea or more than likely down.

I will be amazed if Swansea are as poor and slow as Everton. Today is a massive chance to win.

Big game tonight! An Arsenal win not good news.

He has definitely done better than expected since he csme into the side, especially as he was fairly average for the U23s. Good physical build and seems to do the simple things, and actually has played some nice passes, especially into Tadic. Would be interesting to see him in a back four at some stage (next season) to really judge him.

Will be almost be more annoying if we do drop now as we will have clearly seen that had we got rid of Pellegrino sooner or not had one of the worst January windows ever for a relegation threatened side it could easily have been avoided. I had resigned myself to the fact we were 99% relegated after the Chelsea game. Hughes is a standard PL Manager but has made a huge difference to the attitude and energy of the team, but ultimately we don't win many games and still need to win one from two as a minimum (excluding the obvious defeat to City). IMO we deserve relegation, but have finally given ourselves a realistic eacape route provided we get something at Goodison. I still have zero faith in our centre backs though...

I think you are quite possibly the most clueless wally on here, which is quite impressive.

Thought Tadic was absolutely fantastic today. He is one of those players that will fruatrate, but he has genuine quality and we don't have much of that. He also has a good attitude as proven by pretty much all Managers picking him. Lemina is back to more like his best. Great win today - we now have a chance. Only negative is that our CBs are all there for the taking, but we know that anyway.

That said, we aren't some kind of charity. Saints have given him a great platform.
