No reply from the FL for me either.

Like Brendan Rodgers before he went to Liverpool, Moyes before he went to United?

Was well on his way to becoming a Terras legend. Good to see he's well enough to be giving interviews now.

How have Everton produced those 3?

Are you crazy? You want to mess with the second best defence in Europe?

I wouldn't take Evans. Maybe Phil Jones for CB.

Being good is getting embarrassing?

You've forgotten the TV money.

Wow!

I've thought for a while that we're not being funded by the Liebherrs as well. It explains why there are so many charges, parking booking fees etc, to maximise revenue.

Juan Mata for all 3?

This is a good point. I can't see us bringing in another attacking midfielder, unless they're exceptional, as we won't want to block the youth players. Isgrove is highly rated by the management so I'm happy to have him in the team if injuries get that bad.

We don't really play with wide men anymore.

I think you need to get a life. Seriously.

Ignoring Glasgow, has anyone actually said he wouldn't make it here?

This old line is ridiculous as well, and not only that it's incredibly insulting to the likes of Lallana, Ward-Prowse, Lambert and Schneiderlin to essentially say they aren't good enough to play with Osvaldo. One of the things I assume you're referring to was the cut back from the right hand side which went to no-one - that wasn't due to him being ahead of everyone else, that was due to him not paying attention and trying to pass to the sodding referee! There was another opportunity in the box where Davis read the play excellently, made an overlapping run and then Osvaldo played the ball straight at him rather than ahead of him, meaning Davis had to lay it off to Shaw where he could of got a shot off with a better pass. I am ecstatic with the result yesterday, and I have been a big fan of Osvaldo, AND I think he will be very good for us. None of that detracts from the fact however that yesterday his performance was below par. Not going mental about it, not demanding he be dropped, not saying he's a waste of money. He just had a bad game.

Yeah, the copper next to me at the back certainly perked up when that chant went up.

I was at the game and he was not with it at all, i think he was a bit tired from his international exertions.

I'm not turning on him at all, just saying he was poor yesterday. He was the lone striker and as such the focal point of the team, but more often than not our attacking play fizzled out when it reached him. Only glasgow has written him off and we all know he doesn't actually have an opinion on anything, so why the abuse from you?

Why not Swansea at home?

Haven't watched those yet, but the Sky highlights bizarrely cut the Clyne shot that De Gea saved near the end.

What's wrong with that exactly? Rodriguez was ineffective today (I can't actually remember him doing anything of note all game long) and has been like that 90% of the time he's played as one of the 3 behind the striker. Ward-Prowse came on and was an immediate threat with his crossing. When playing up front he has looked brilliant, linking up well, winning headers for knock downs and causing huge problems for defences.

Ward-Prowse, then we have the specialised set piece taker as well.

Then don't play Rodriguez, he doesn't get involved. He's being wasted as we're currently using him.
