Turns out that because people five years ago said we were terrible against Sheffield United in a league cup game then that means Che Adams is actually as good as Sadio Mane after all or something.

You do realise we were absolute dogsh it in that game right?

Reads like clickbait - doesn't take long to find a "he might be signing for us" from an Everton perspective, too. https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/everton-transfer-blog-carlisle-price-17511606 In all honesty I can't say he looks like a priority for us being that he has only ever played a handful of matches in his entire career. I'm sure he's great on MLG's little computer games but I'd like a transfer window with less potential and more experience this time.

How did "easily the most skilful player in the Premier League" get on against a Championship defence?

Why? He's been playing for them for the last half-season.

Good job there have been absolutely no other events, significant actions or major decisions taken in the middle east in the subsequent forty years. All of it, everything, is Jimmy Carter's fault.

Ah, the old 15 points between 17th and 18th scenario. It's almost a cliche how often that happens.

All need game time and Adams and Obafemi will fancy a goal against HTFC. We should have enough to get the job done.

Says who? Either way, we don't need to win it for the FA Cup to be a positive force - another semi would be another trip to Wembley, which would be great. I've got no problem with a little squad rotation on Saturday - if nothing else we desperately need a goal from Adams - but we should be trying to progress in the competition, especially off the back of the points we already have in the league now.

None of this matters as we are not going to sign him in this window.

Just the 8 defeats in 10 games for Bournemouth. But they have always been a weird streaky team who go on odd winning or losing runs, so not relegated yet.

It's a Christmas miracle,thank God.

Yes I know what you mean, it's tight and getting more and more compressed. But I would still be confident that from here that three teams will not get 40 points. Watford have had a nice little run but it's got them to 19 points and they're still second bottom. Not sure they are going to keep it up for the rest of the season. West Ham going down would be hilarious.

15 points from 17 games to be safe. So we don't even need particularly stellar form for the rest of the season to stay up. Enough winnable home (and away) games coming up. Fantastic turnaround, well done Ralph and the team.

Desperately need a second goal.

We only need to score two more to virtually guarantee a point.

Can't believe all this talk of full-backs and bloody no one has suggested Wayne Bridge.

Adams won't get any confidence from scoring some goals in a five month stretch in the Championship. He already knows he can do that. Him being farmed out six months into a four year contract will destroy his confidence and he'd know he isn't wanted at SFC and he'd prepare to move on. Basically it's not going to happen, unless we really are writing him off as a bad job.

So one of the first acts of the new government is a stonking increase in the minimum wage - a grand a year or so pro-rata. A lovely little social democratic move to build on a New Labour policy of old. Instant rebuttal against anyone saying the Tories don't support the poorest. And targeted against those who work. Very strong, One Nation Toryism.

I wish we were West Ham.

They've already had both.

Very disappointing. I usually go to Leicester each season but not looking very hopeful now. FFS Saints that allocation is pathetic.

Thoughts and prayers for MLG at this time. Welcome to the flock son.

Pellegrini not quite leading the charge into Europe the hammers were expecting. He's not going to outlast Ralph now.

The Amazon who have spent a good 8 mins interviewing/swooning over Hasenhutl? They've barely spoken about Chelsea in the post match. Fu ck knows what you people want.
