Yeah saw something was going on from a distance, what happened?

West Ham scrapping around for a CB. Been linked to Distin, Kaboul, Caulker and Vidic in the last hour!

Hardly a surprise.

Come home Rickie...be a great alternative to Pelle.

But you do pick up on everyone elses smallest mistakes and correct them, so not really a surprise ppl are jumping on it....

lol, MLG just got owned.

Agree - think he actually looked quite decent at the start of this season, and would be a good addition to our squad at the moment. He has hardly set the world alight at Hull though. Interested to see what would happen if he came back and was integrated back into the squad for next season.

TBF, the three that started in midfield yesterday have not scored this season I don't think...(Reed, Davis, JWP) Even Tadic hasn't scored many this year, 3 is it?

Thought we would, dont think it was a red.

Would be tempted to switch to 3-5-2, however I'm not sure you can get Elia and Mane in the side if we play like that, I'd go with: Forster Clyne Fonte Alderweireld Bertrand (Targett if banned) Wanyama Morgan Davis Mane Pelle Elia Think he'll start JWP though, as he seems to like him. Also would be tempted to play Wanyama and Reed or Morgan and Reed - bit of a gamble sticking in two CM's who have just come back from injury.

Clubs get more desperate so they over pay, and if clubs are desperate then they offer the players more money.

Makes players more expensive, players get paid more, cost of going to football goes up etc...

Makes sense that we're not in for another striker, however I wouldn't like to have to rely on him for a long period if Pelle got injured.

Updated after the weekends results. Everyone else seems to be picking up and being more consistent recently. Got a chance to pick up a few points on people next week though, with Man Utd playing West Ham, Liverpool playing Everton, and Spurs playing Arsenal. It's not over yet...

Superb little player. We were worse once he came off

Pretty sure when we beat Newcastle everyone else won.

Very good interview with him, he knows what to say. [video=youtube_share;PBnBot6JeUM]

There's worse things.

If we just go after all these players from Holland, then surely this Black Box thing is a load of cr4p. Koeman is just going to Holland and signing the players he rates - (not the worst idea)

Yeah - cant believe they haven't done more to help the amount of queuing at HT. It really is shocking.

At least we have the following week off!

West Ham game, not this one.

I've seen loads of people drinking in the stands at SMS. There were 2 blokes just to our left at St James' Park last weekend who were drinking in the stand too.

Oh. I was listening to TalkSport on the way to work and they said they expected Yaya Toure to start against Chelsea. Looks like I misunderstood!

Would start with: Forster Clyne Fonte Yoshi Bertrand Davis JWP Reed Elia Pelle Tadic Should have Mane on the bench for this I think? No we won't it was Ivory Coast who went out, not Senegal.
