I'm trying to erase everything from this season pre Mark Hughes from my memory. It was bad, really bad, and I'm very interested to see who the hell gives him a job next. Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk

Great atmosphere from start to finish today. Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk

There's still a good player in there, same with Bednarek and Hoedt, but I think we need a strong leader signed in the summer and two of those three loaned out for experience next season. I wouldn't give up on any of them yet. Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk

He was here for the two seasons before that too, in which we finished 7th and 6th respectively. Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk

Rubbish. He holds the ball up well, passes well, wins the ball in the air far more than a man of his size should...he has plenty to offer when he's not scoring goals. The other two offer nothing when not scoring goals. Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk

I'm not saying long is enough- I would sell the other two and get two more in. I'm saying that if you look at what they each DO offer the team, then you have to admit that Long is very good at what he does and is an excellent option to have when you are struggling to keep the ball out of your own half.

Trouble we have is that all three of our strikers (I'm ignoring carillo) are lacking in quite essential areas - Austin cannot get on the end of passes unless he has a 5 yard head start, long struggles to finish one on one and Gabbi very rarely does anything unless it's played to his feet in the box. Gabbi did show signs of being able to hold the ball up against Swansea, and Long is always a positive for the team with his ability to win balls in the air, hold the ball up, chase down, run the channels and win free kicks. Honestly if we had to sell them I'd sell Austin, Gabbi and then Long in that order. If we're keeping all three then we need to play two out of them all the time.

Some of our best business has been done towards the end of the window, off the top of my head Mane and Aldeweireld. Go for number one. Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk

After two years of sh*te coinciding with a new tv deal i'd like to think we'll see a reduction for season ticket renewals. I'm still unlikely to renew, top level football is corrupt and unbalanced. Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk

Saints aside they deserve one. They've been superb. Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk

Looked like Bertrand was joining in with OWTS at the end? Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk

From the reaction thread... Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk

Got horrific images of these celebrations coming back to bite us...Austin saying job done etc...us losing 5 or 6 nil and Swansea beating a defeated stoke 4 or 5 nil would overhaul the goal difference. Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk

Not really. Fresh legs, left footed, still capable going forward but defensively sound too. Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk

Early reminder there will be at least 6 minutes of injury time... Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk

Booing him once he stood up too. Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk

Swansea fans whinging cos the game stops for one of our players out cold. C*nts Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk

If he's going to go missing all game he needs to be burying that. Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk

Hoedt pushed the lino there...flashbacks to prutton...he's very lucky... Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk

What the **** Tadic you were ahead of your man, no need to cut back!! Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk

As nervous as the back line have been, we can't switch the system now and risk being totally at sea. Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk
