When is the draw?

Poor signal on the train and can't get the underground site to load, can anyone confirm if Vauxhall to Highbury and Islington is affected?

Marco w*nk?

Well what would the benefit be for us then? We pay him more to sell him for less?

Poor f*cking Gardos. Tbf he's been fit all season I think so doesn't look like he was in Puels plans anyway. Which is a shame, I thought he looked decent and could have potentially been a ready made replacement for Fonte or Van Dijk.

JWP keeping a Yaya Toure in his prime in his back pocket at just 17 was something special.

Easy to lose count at that many!

I knew he'd be a hell of a talent since I saw him in the 6-0 destruction of the Pompey youth team.

Only 22 though tbf. Got another 3 years before you'd say he should be as good as he can be, and the signs are all good.

Maybe this is the secret behind out successful academy? Watch United, Spurs and West Ham be the only other three involved.

His good games are becoming more and more frequent where a couple of years ago he'd have one a month if that. Needs to keep up that tempo of passing, moving it quickly.

We've been playing this way for a long time.

£30million, lul. If we sell for any less than £40mil I'll be p*ssed and really, if the market was any kind of fair (I know it's not) he'd be going for £50million. Maybe we should point to their acquisition of John Stones as proof his value is that high.

If his face was bandaged up, how can you be sure it was him? Were his earlobes sticking out?

To this tune btw...

He's our Cedric Running down the right wing he's electric He does things that are so unexpected And he sh*ts on Clyne... Not 100% on the third line, might be "those things that I never expected" but meh, both sound similar.

People calling for Yoshida at RB are clearly forgetting how bad he was there for us and how it led to him being labelled a horrific footballer...when he is in fact a more than capable CB.

On a different note, very glad to hear the Cedric chant properly going now - maybe now the usual suspects will stop their hilarious "all Saints chants are the same, clap clap" routine and actually keep trying when a new chant pops up. It takes time for people to hear WTF is being chanted, don't expect the whole stadium to join in after 2 verses of it.

Only thing that sticks in the mind is giving a foul by Austin when Williams grabbed him round the head. Not sure what that was for as they were both just going for an aerial ball before that.

Couple of small decisions wrong, but far better than anything else we've had (bar Europa games). The one we had in the league cup was still the worst.

City Arsenal and Spurs do rotate, how's it worked out for Leicester in their league campaign? VvD doesn't play every week - he's rested for domestic cup games which Fonte plays in.

Not sure about that, few times in the past the fans have almost worn themselves out by kick off and sung all of our small repertoire of songs, meaning people aren't as up for it after kick off. Today as soon as the game kicked off there was a proper loud OWTS. Music was quite different today as well...wondering if the players have requested what gets played.

I'd say he's got it spot on so far. Using the full amount of group games to rotate as much as possible knowing it would still be in out hands is a stroke of genius...

Yoshida will play for VVD, McCarthy for Forster and probably the two fullbacks will change.

The three away games are all very tough, especially Bournemouth who are playing well. I'd take 7 points if offered right now, on the basis that we are 7 points off the amount we had in mid january last season so would still be well ahead of ourselves.
