I agree, I actually meant i don't like that the players were going against Koemans instructions (if that's what happened).

Also showed nothing of ours from the first half except the goal despite having two good attempts - Mane and Romeu - as well as ignoring the nice moment with Davis which could have at least been acknowledged.

Assume you quoted the wrong person there!

Why? What's the alternative, that they're covering up a genuine bomb?

Just said on Sky that Koeman was angry Bertrand was taking the penalty and was trying to tell the players to get the regular penalty taker on it...that's a strange one. Not sure i like that.

Indeed. Two big name, big money signings who should free up a lot of wages.

He was the only outfield player today that hasn't scored this season iirc, which may be why he took the penalty.

And if our style isn't working, like first half today? Palace packed the box and reduced us to shooting from range, we needed someone who could either batter a hole in their defence or shoot out of nowhere, Pelle was perfect for that. And for his size he actually isn't that great in the air, Shane Long wins more headers for me.

If someone offers more than £10million I think you take it, but otherwise he's a brilliant option to have. Can't argue with his return, he must average a goal every 3 games? Which is very good really. Not everyone can be Aguero.

Voted for Cuco but actually think Allis goal was the best.

Hahahahahahahahahahaha

Yeah, he does. Because he realised it was the wrong way to do things and acted professionally afterward. I find it funny as well but there's a big difference between what he did and what Lallana did.

That's not what he's talking about.

HE never said that though. He was left out of a pre-season friendly game BY THE MANAGER so he could decide what he wanted to do. He decided to stay and knuckle down, and gave us another great season before leaving in a professional manner.

Why not? Safe standing doesn't mean getting rid of seats, so why not cater to everyones wishes rather than just your own?

The club should apply to the premier league about trialling safe standing.

Looks like we're using the huge income increase next season to tie players down for the long term. I can't remember seeing any player sign 6 year deals before, and yet we've got 2 signed up before the season even ends.

Koemans said nothing will happen with his contract till the end of the season.

Aaron Martin was quite a big squad player for us, Holmes is obviously there to pad the squad out a bit in the absence of Guly and Chamberlain - although Holmes did score for us in the Championship! I'd wager every player who played in those two years was invited.

He'a looked at his best playing in a deep midfield role, unfortunately for obvious reasons has only had one or two games here and there and no run in the team. Could see him fitting in there long term though.

Thank christ for that.

Trying to interview Martina but he keeps wandering off.

Our attendances were always upwards of 25k those two seasons weren't they?

No Cedric, Kelvin, Stek, Bertrand being interviewed either. I guess it's just whoever didn't have plans after training one day who got interviewed.

Get the **** in
