  1. That's very early, we certainly have a lot to play for still. Don't want to be finishing 7th, would be nice to give the early round games to Liverpool.
  2. Very happy Pelle has scored, albeit against a poor side. I'd assume he will be up against Jagielka at the weekend
  3. It would be a Brucie Bonus if we could sign him up
  4. Have had a similar injury and op, he can be back within six months. I'm sure the club have been working hard searching for replacements, but theres very few top quality keepers around
  5. Bad news, hope he recovers quick. It could have happened at a worse time though
  6. I wouldnt get in a panic; KD can do a job for the rest of the season. We're pretty much guaranteed 7th spot, and anything more will be a bonus.
  7. Fifth is very much still on. Liverpool still have to go to Arsenal and Chelsea. We definitely need to beat Spurs though to have any chance. 5 wins might be enough. What a season that would be.
  8. We are going to need a decent back up keeper next season. It's difficult to attract a keeper of a reasonable standard, although Spurs managed it. Whoever we get will surely be given a fair few games, especially as we will have the Europa League to play in as well.
  9. Top 4 isn't realistic for us anymore, hoping for a United win today. Liverpool need a good beating so Sky's ****athon over them can end. Rogers, the genius whose team bottled the title last year and have been nowhere near it this season. I would love it if we finished above them and Spurs, love it.
  10. Burnley are hardworking, but like so many teams that come up from the Championship, just lacking quality and that cutting edge. We were very comfortable in the end. Really feel for Pelle though, just won't go in for him.
  11. Kelvin actually played really well, we'd all be praising Forster for making those saves. Bit dodgy when the ball is passed back to him, we need to try and cut that out. We certainly need a half decent back up keeper for next season though, there will be a lot of games with the europa league as well
  12. Could turn out to be a good day for us if Leicester can hold out for a result
  13. Good half to watch, but Burnley looking dangerous. Pelle desperately needs a goal though. Davis has looked solid enough, he needs to be though if we're to have a decent finish to the season.
  14. Got a good feeling about today. Burnley are a hardworking and well organised team, but our confidence is back and we are due some goals. Can't see anything other than a 4-1 Saints win.
  15. They seem to be getting a lot of praise for a team who bottled the title last season and are now fifth. A win for us today and I will be hoping for a draw at Anfield tomorrow. They still have to go to Chelsea and Arsenal
  16. True, after last season I'm sure Les Reed and co have everything planned out and have taken into consideration. Everyone should be prepared this season, so there shouldn't be a meltdown on here like there was last summer. I think Morgan, Clyne and Toby will certainly leave, but wouldn't be so sure about the others. Either way, we will need to bring in another 6 or 7 players if we are to cope with the demands of the PL and the Europa league.
  17. Could be good for us, an opportunity to rip off another club.
  18. Really hope Utd beat them on sunday. Then they still have to go to Arsenal and Chelsea. They will do well to finish in the top four.
  19. We don't want to entering at qualifying stage. I think 5 more wins (with one of those being against Spurs) will be enough for 6th
  20. I ****ing hate Liverpool. Oh well, at least we still have a good chance of finishing above Spurs. I'd be more than happy with that. It was obvious the bigger sides would get better as the season went on. As long as we win a few more and get 60+ plus points it will have been a successful campaign. Quite looking forward to the Europa League draw already!
  21. Looks like they will nick it. Swansea have played really well but not taken their chances.
  22. Remember that well, incredible to think how **** we were back then. Those pens were in the first 15 mins as well, I recall. We've been rather lucky to have had 2 of the best penalty takers in this era at our club. Tadic doesnt inspire much confidence. Talking of pens, we are still the only team yet to concede one so we have certainly been lucky with that. Fonte on Aguero, his handball at Newcastle and Targett against Chelsea spring to mind. To be fair Tadic did clip Ivanovic, who went over too theatrically. Ref should have booked him if its not a pen. I have noticed refs seems to be more wary of awarding them to some of the bigger sides these days, probably due to the influence of cheating players like Suarez on our game. Zabaleta's on sarturday was a stonewall pen, sure it would have been given a few years ago.
  23. Top man, and a good manager who deserves another crack with a PL side
