Sheaf Saint

It's very telling that McCarthy and Bertrand are the only players from from our current squad that anyone has included.

Yep. Utterly dreadful. Probably the worst of the lot in recent years, and there have been some stinkers in that time. The only meaningful contribution I can remember him making was an assist against Derby in the FA cup last season. Hopelessly out of his depth in the PL, and seemingly not even good enough to play regularly in Scotland either.

In summary, it was just as it was against Bournemouth last week. Our opponents defended well and we didn't.

He was going full tilt and it was just too far in front of him.

Any contact from Ings and that would have been a goal.

We're dominating the possession due to our numerical advantage. But we lack any quality to create any clear chances.

Spurs look happy to let us knock it around the edge of their box all day, safe in the knowledge we don't have the required quality to break them down.

WTF was that Hoj? So much time to control it and do something better with it and you do that? Pathetic.

You're just making sh*t up here. Nobody is claiming any of them are top players. Nobody.

Playing against 10 men and leaving two players completely unmarked in our box is just unforgivable.

Haha! Gunn might have done better for their goal, but at least it wasn't a howler like that!

People slating Gunn would do well to remember he made a very good save a few minutes before their goal. Replay shows there was a deflection on the shot as well. The fault lies with having JWP at wing back and leaving a Spurs player unmarked in our box.

Absolute b*locks. There was a blatant foul on Bertrand right before their FK just now.

Decent hit from Hoj but too close to Lloris. Best effort of the match so far.

Eplsite is pretty good. Much better quality streams these days than they used to be.

What's the point in even having Valery on the bench if he can't even be trusted to replace an injured Cedric at RB? Changing the entire shape right before KO might surprise the opposition but it can't help our preparations any.

Adams not even on the bench. Neither is McCarthy. Harry Lewis is the backup keeper.

And no sooner do I type that than Liverpool score!

Blades managing to hold off Liverpool quite well. No shots on target so far. Would honestly rather see Liverpool win though. I don't care if they win the league and I would much prefer if they took points off teams around us.

Not seen much of it so far, but this is a sterling effort from Japan. I assumed it would be a routine, high-scoring win for Ireland, but if Japan can hold on to this lead it will be well deserved.

Watching that back, it does look like Yoshi should have easily been able to step in and intercept that ball before it got to Marquis but got caught wrong-footed. But that aside, I thought he had a great game and should definitely start on Saturday. If Ralph drops him again in favour of Vest then he will have officially lost the plot.

Man City away - sh*t draw.

Oxford 3-0 WHU!

Sunderland on course to knock out Sheff Utd too.

The 14-year itch has been scratched. Nervy at times, but ultimately we were completely dominant and managed the game perfectly. Danny Ings goes down as a Saints legend tonight.
