You really are becoming the new forum bore. Now where were we, 1-1. COYS.

Seems I can neither count nor read. Not a great combo.

Soz, what a wally!

5 changes is that? and no Jay.

Depends on what numbers Claude picks from the bowl tonight. 5 mins and we'll find out.

And where was Vera?

Only a few weeks back Puel was saying / claiming he didn't know what his best eleven was.

Ok cheers. They can sign but not register.

Without the window being open? Interesting. Out of contract?

Sky.

Blackmore saying Clasie has a groin injury.

Is he only the second sacking this season (after Guidolin)? Seems lower than the norm by this time of the campaign?

Good to see the youngsters getting some game time and experience.

With £10M being reinvested in the team it might be.

I'm sure this is covered already but seems Man U have opened talks with Benfica CB Victor Lindelof which must make a move for Fonte even more unlikely.

Puel said rotate. Fonte said swivel.

Jose's number didn't come up on team tombola. Claude must have forgotten to put it in the barrel.

On paper yes, in practice no. Tell me you're not comparing Redmond to Mane please.

We hardly miss Victor at all. Same can't be said for Mane and Pelle. They've both left huge voids in our team and our performances.

If he was the only change in the starting eleven then maybe that stat would have some credence. In reality there are so many changes it's pretty meaningless.

I agree regarding J Rod. He is definitely looking sharper but he desperately needs that confidence boost. I'd be tempted to give him an extended run. After all we've been doing the same with Redmond in the hope he eventually comes good so why not do the same with Jay.

Is there any news on Cedric?

The irony.

But back to his point. It's hard not trying argue is it.

Long's had 20 games to prove that but hasn't.
