I probably was the source of this rumour, as I was chatting about the liklihood of this happening in the pub before the game on Saturday...if it's true, then they're a strange bunch up there.
Van Dijk, Long or Fonte
Shows what an ordinary season it's been this season....strange that we're still fighting for a European spot (maybe not for much longer)
Would quite like us to go back to a 4-2-3-1 if Long and Austin are out on Saturday,
Tadic Pelle and Mane off the right, Davis in the middle along with Clasie and Romeu.
He is a truly dreadful pundit, his teams of the week are basically anyone has scored, and the reasoning for being picked is even more laughable. No reason for him to be on there tbh - sure Shearer or Lineker can pick a team of the week.
Bournemouth in real danger of going down now, few weeks ago I thought they were almost safe, but they're straight back into the fight after losing at home this weekend. Their fixtures are pretty horrendous...Swansea/Villa/WBA/Newcastle games are huge for them.
February 27: Watford (A)
March 1: Southampton (H)
March 5: Newcastle United (A)
March 12: Swansea City (H)
March 19: Tottenham Hotspur (A)
April 2: Manchester City (H)
April 9: Aston Villa (A)
April 16: Liverpool (H)
April 23: Chelsea (H)
April 30: Everton (A)
May 7: West Bromwich Albion (H)
May 15: Manchester United (A)
Let's be fair, if they were playing well and their bodies could cope with it, then they wouldn't be subbed off....there must be a reason why they're being hooked, whether it's fitness or impact on the game.
Agree - look at Stones, a fabulous footballer but needs experience to really improve him - needs to know when to kick it out and when to play football, it will come in time.
The "dance" song called Somebody to Love came on in a bar I was in before the Arsenal game - surprised it's not been turned into a football chant as I'm sure you could get a players name in there. (

Also...one which has been mooted over the last 18 months....."Mane's on fire, your defence is terrified Mane's on fire...nananananananana nananana nananana" (Freed from desire -
