Excellent. If there is ever a good time to get relegated.. well at least have some decent options in the youth team to fall back on if they stay with us. Gallagher, Sims etc.

If we do not. Then Pellegrino must go, and we have to hope we can pull off a Swansea-esque run and beat Liverpool and Arsenal. I am not convinced the squad is good enough even under the right manager however.

Swansea have rode their luck but still willing to break up the field in numbers on the counter. We tend to just sit back and hope to hang on to the 1-1 or whatever.

3-1 Swansea. That confirms that then.

Doesn't look likely at the moment. Sideways sideways .. time running out. Must be infuriating being an Arsenal fan in recent years.

To be fair, he should have left years ago. He's overseen the decline of Arsenal and really there is no-one to blame except himself.

A highlight of the season so far (hey, it's been pretty dull!) seeing Van Dijk sulking on the bench after just a couple of games. Replaced by a guy who cost £55m less from us.

Not looking like a great window so far. But still 1.5 days to go!

Despite his sick note reputation. I'd be delighted and impressed had he signed for us. All we can hope is he gets injured soon..

Let's see if they actually sign either of them first... ?

Most likely cost reasons.

I agree. This and their ignorance of our need for another commanding central defender is going to cost us.

VVD has really sorted out their defensive problems. What's that - 1 assist for the Swansea winner and 3 more let in today? Solid signing.

Despite the win today I can't see us getting anything here. We've already failed to rise to the challenge of a "must win" game many times this season. Manager has no idea how to approach this kind of game so it will just be another one we needed to win and didn't. Read: Huddersfield and Palace home. Watford away.

Except it wasn't the last 10. It was the last 23 minutes when we were on the front foot.

Doesn't bode well for the next 2 games.

Hopefully we can hang on, despite Pellegrino.

Yes, but worrying we are still asleep at the back. Shame the club aren't looking to replace VVD.

Commentators blaming Cedric's pass. Long has been quiet today though.

Sounds fairly dull so far!

Making some good points about him. He seems less sulky than Forster. More like a proper keeper

Still it sounds like this is no-where near being close to completion in time if he's still actively playing games for them. I'm going to assume this won't happen. Hopefully the club have other targets too...

We need some experience at the back. However I'm not sure if he is of sufficient quality... Though maybe we are looking to play him upfront?
