I think the fact that we're still 3rd suggests no one has really under performed. I just don't some of the strong criticism of any player this season really, or why people feel the need to search for problems. In my opinion they've all been absolute legends to put us into this improbable position.

You are crazy.

Could you ask him to have a word with his mate, Deepay, in order to get him here in the summer?

In recent weeks he's looked like he's been having a bit of a breakdown, a case of the pressure becoming a little too much I think. More was expected of Leicester it has to be said. I liked Nigel when he was here, but I don't think he can have any gripes about being sacked. As well as having a poor record this season, he's acted like a bit of a mentalist. Still the timing is tricky - not sure who Leicester think they can bring in now. They are a few weeks late I think.

Forgive me, but I'm utterly speechless at this debate. Are people actually saying that they have a problem with JWP's set pieces? Is that actually happening? My gripe with him is around his lack of imposing himself on games, not strong enough - but he's absolutely pivotal when it comes to delivery. He is the most likely to score form a direct free kick from the edge of the area, but you also need to take account of the fact that we don't really win that many outside the box as we used to. He's not far away from scoring a stunner from a direct free kick if we get one again. His technique is spot on and takes as good a set piece as I've seen for a good while. Beats Lallana's fluffy floaty efforts. His delivery from deep free kicks and corners are second to none, some of the best deliveries in the PL. He has a decent haul of assists this year, most of which have come from set pieces. At the end of the day, we sit here in February in third position of the EPL. I honestly don't think there's a great deal to moan about or be unhappy about. So why feel the need to focus on a non-issue such as JWP's free kicks is beyond me. Enjoy the position we're in and live the moment.

What's that got to do with it exactly? Do set pieces only count if you score from them? If you want to criticise JWP, go for it, but to criticise his set pieces is absolutely ludicrous and up there with the most stupid things I've seen posted on this site.

Didn't help himself with all his confrontations, but you have to wonder what anyone new will be able to do at this stage? Should have done it a few weeks ago.

Lol, someone saying their main gripe over JWP is his set-pieces. What do some of our fans watch every weekend.

Lol. Please stop.

Scan was clear, he hasn't broken his foot.

Man Utd Chelsea Liverpool Tottenham Arsenal in the next 8....! (and they also have ourselves and Everton away as well) If they don't win this, I think it's safe to confirm one of the relegation places.

He's been pretty lucky, cause you're right, Kane was being flogged around in the summer - along with Townsend,Mason Chadli - yet they have all turned out to be pretty important for them this season. He's bloody lucky with Kane, that's for sure - as i'm certain he was not on his radar when he first came in. (well he wasn't, as he didn't play him)

Deserved for sure. On top for a good 80% of that game and should have been a goal up before that, as the Mane offside (which he would have finished) wasn't offside and Fonte's shot that hit the bar was damn unlucky. But we stuck in there, kept going, never gave up - and bam. We just had that little bit of extra quality in Mane and he made the difference all afternoon. Still incredibly tight, but we simply will not go away....

Can't believe that reasoning, what does he take the world for? He's made himself look even more foolish! He should have just been honest and said....''I don't want a relegation on my CV, I've bought a load of crap in the summer which I can't get performing, but it's not my fault. I wanted to add in the window so we had a chance, but I couldn't. None of this is my fault what so ever, but I'll leave now just so I can avoid blame, even though none of this is my fault.''

Not sure what this really means on Saturday. They've been good at home this year, and even though he's jumped because he's a wimp, It will have probably taken the players by surprise. Will be interesting to see the reaction. They'll have lost a bit of focus on specifics for Saturday, I'm sure.

That's quite funny to be honest. He's thrown his toys well and truly out of the pram there as he didn't get what he wanted yesterday. It makes you wonder though, is he even a manager, or just a player transfer person? He just seems to live off of ''wheeling and dealing'' and doesn't actually do a great deal of, you know, football coaching stuff, what's actually paid to do. Low and behold as soon as he found out he couldn't add more expensive aging players to his squad he's upped and left. The reality is that they should already have enough. Vargas, Isla, Caulker, Green, Barton, Austin - that's not a bad side really. A little bit of management and he wouldn't have needed to ''wheel or deal''. That's probably his career over and done with.

Well played. Got that done, dusted. Will have been in a lot of demand, so pleased we executed this. Top player.

Really happy we got that Betrand deal over the line. Top player. One down.....

This. x10000

He really hasn't.

Sorting out the Bertrand deal apparently.

Yeah they cancelled it, he didn't feature much for them. 3 apps I think. Reckon he'll be off to a lower league side soon.

What Pelle have you been watching?

If that's true, he sounds much more a number 10 type than a wide player, and it's EXACTLY what we need. Well played everyone involved.
