Unless I've misread it I think it's being run by the players, so chances are they were too engrossed in actually watching the game. Really think we should invest in hiring a commentator to do actual broadcasts on the website - preferably streaming the game as well.

They'll have moved onto someone else by the summer. Just got to hope there is zero recall clause in the loan deal.

Don't have the billy big bollocks attitude yet. Wait till you've got a generation of 20ish year old City fans who have grown up only ever winning everything.

How on earth are Pompey spending £11.5million on a stadium expansion in league one!?

Newcastle need players who they know can play in the Prem right now because they are in danger of relegation, they don't have time to scout and develop someone, risking that they'll never actually be up to it anyway.

But when he's played, Armstrong has still played well. He's just been absent with injuries. Alli has been shit even when played, for two seasons now. 35 appearances, 3 goals and 5 assists in all competitions this season and last.

...ok? That's kind of irrelevant.

Havent Lyon come out and said there is no such deal in place?

This is definitely the summer we've all been waiting for where all the shite signings are finally gone, all their inflated wages freed up for Ralph to at last put together a squad he can call his own. Next season and the season after will be the true test of all the work Ralph has done and all the faith that's been shown in him.

Quite funny reading that leicester forum about Vestergaard. This was my favourite; "feel bad rubbing salt in wounds here, but he is our 9th choice cb, what a shambles of a signing fofana, evans, soyuncu, amartey, ndidi, justin, castange, hamza all in front of him at cb ever been a worse signing in history of the club?"

Poor old Hounslow haven't even scored a single goal this season and conceded 62. Must be depressing.

It's a myth that you have to sacrifice effort to get extra creativity. Armstrong is one of our most dangerous and creative players and he works his absolute arse off. Alli has also shown no evidence for about 4 years that he is premier league standard.

He's lazy, overrated and expensive. He'd be a shit signing.

Who else does his agent represent out of interest?

I don't believe that at all, as desperate as Newcastle are £40million is an absurd amount.

I can't be the only person that just thinks Alli isn't very good?

Where will this be played then?

I looked through the fixtures at work today and I had us finishing on 45 points. Felt like I was being conservative as well.

I'll never understand increased prices on the day. It massively reduces the chance of people going "f**k it, why not" on the day when they're paying more than the people sat around them. Says to me the club would rather get a miniscule amount extra in advance and have people not turn up than get a larger crowd in.

He never said quicker in this window he said quicker in general, so instead of signing a young player for the future next summer we might do it this window.

Comparing their amount of manager sackings to us is ridiculous though as in that time we've had two relegations and an administration whereas they've had 4 premier leagues, 5 FA cups, 2 champions leagues and 2 Europa leagues.

Playing that line, I don't understand why if they want to play for offside they don't sprint away from goal as De Bruyne runs up to the ball.

Christ, they're really labouring over the goal conceded longer than anything else in the entire game.

I made that exact comparison earlier this season.

Another positive...we don't have to play them again this season.
