Have got mine bought on the first day, not the ones from this Monday. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

He's struck me as pretty confident but I'd probably agree with having him on the bench. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

Has McQueen recovered from his injury? Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

I sometimes get frustrated that he slows things down and is very reluctant to shoot. But slowing things down isn't always his fault - he's looking for the telling pass and if there's no movement that's a problem. I'd have him ahead of Boufal and Redmond all the time.

Roma Barca far better game. Roma back from 1-4 deficit winning 3-0 Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

If we go down, he'll be gone long before we're playing in the Championship. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

You've left out the key player in Sunday's improvement. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

The suggested price is fed to the press by prospective buying clubs and is deliberately low to try to influence opinion as to the value and give the impression that the selling club are overvaluing. In today's market, he's worth £50m. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

I'd go with that too. After the more spirited performance on Sunday I get the feeling we won't see much of Boufal and Redmond from now on, and certainly not Carrillo. Even Gabbiadini may struggle to get a look in. And I'm happy with that. We created far more against Arsenal without our so-called creative players. Although not spectacular, JWP is very important for the cohesion of the midfield. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

Having now watched the sendings off on TV I can only reflect that the game has come to a sorry state. I'll reluctantly accept that according to the letter of the law, the Stephens incident could be violent conduct as he raised his arm, but the push was only to the chest. The Arsenal one seemed even less serious. But isn't it ridiculous that a player can blatantly hold on to an opponent's shirt for several seconds and about 20 yards, finally half ripping it off his back, and that is just a caution for ungentlemanly conduct. But, if by doing that, he provokes the opponent into my physical retaliation, it's a red. Ludicrous, because it just encourages fouling and niggling to try to get a sending- off.

No. Not unless we win the final. Rules changed a couple of years back. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

Really? There's much more to his game than set pieces. He linked play well, closed down and had a good shot saved. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

Yes. Ridiculous really as overall he wasn't bad. He did misjudge the cross for their third but made some important clearances. And I don't really blame him for the red. He would have needed the patience of a Saint to ignore the attempted disrobement by Wilshere. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

Maybe not a total disaster, but the defensive line-up we had would probably have been a good shout against Chelsea, and that option has gone. Although I'd consider Bertrand as the third CB bringing McQueen in. Wonder if it's worth appealing the red? Probably not as it was deemed violent conduct and retaliation, but it was pretty mild given what he was being subjected to. And it really angers me that it happened because Marriner didn't spot or stop the shirt pulling, which was very poor. It wasn't a quick pull - more a concerted effort over several seconds to rip the shirt off his back. I think I'd have been annoyed. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

Romeu played well. Lots of fight, good linking with Ward-Prowse and showed the keenness to win the second ball that's been missing. And at least you've managed to pick the name of someone who was actually on the pitch. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

Sadly your post loses all credibility when you say Davis was invisible. That is, in fact, true but only because he wasn't in the team or on the bench. JWP had an excellent game. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

I'm bothering with anyone we can theoretically catch. They may have relatively easy games, but also have a horrendous injury list. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

And Palace have 31. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

No we're not. And we have two games in hand. Not that they'll be worth much, probably. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
