Lallana's against Hull for me, amazing effort. His one against Newcastle wasn't bad either!

I'm not saying he's not superb, but he's played sub-20 games this year and has only just come back into the side. He will not go to the WC based on that. It's up to him to start making the England staff's heads turn for the Euro's now.

He won't go to the world cup. It would be almost as ridiculous as Connor Wickham going, if we're honest.

That Ronaldo chap looks quite handy.

They are all but gone.

Weren't they asking for something like 15-20m? Which is quite ridiculous, really.

Need to hope our scouts can unearth a Bony or a Michu in the summer.

In his head, I imagine. He's still trying to justify his constant ''bigging'' up of their transfer policy in the summer, when the reality is that their transfer policy has lead to them being relegated. The vast majority of Norwich fans I know (Ok, only 3...) have said that he's the worst ever striker they'd seen play for them, and that's quite some statement!

Sorry, meant in league standing!

It's Sunday - 3pm. Would be good to end with a big win over a so called big club, just to round this truly remarkable season off in style. Enjoy it whilst we have it, that's what I say.

He's still got 1 year left though, whatever happens. May well be that he bides his time and gets a feel for the direction the club is going in before he commits. I think he wants to stay and isn't looking for a move, but probably nervous to commit long-term until the future goals are clear.

Surprised Juve don't want him, he's had an amazing impact there and has proven what an unbelievable player he is. Oh.

I just have a feeling he'll still be here next year. I don't think he'll sign a new contract though. Make of that what you will.

Not ready, his touch and movement are too static and he's not dynamic enough to play in our system as yet. He needs to go out to the NPC and have a hard season against big man mountains - that'll strengthen him up. Still believe he's playing as a consequence of our lack of depth, as opposed to the club truly believing he was ready to take the PL by storm just yet.

The noises are that At.Madrid want to move Villa on in the summer anyway, so you can imagine his agent has probably been touting him around. Reality is that he's no where near the player he was 2 years ago, no where near. But he's still a very handy striker who would certainly add to our team. It would be totally unrealistic if he was at the level he was 2 years ago, but he's not, so it's a possibility.

And that's why you're not a manager.

Sill not quite understanding why people are championing us spending so much money on someone who will be nothing but a squad player. We will sign someone better than what we have, then the current players become the squad players.

Good thread.

1 relegation place confirmed for next year then.

2-3..... interesting last 30 or so. I'd love Lukaku in our side so much...

Great record, not just down to Artur though - a real team effort.

His goal ratio is excellent, one of the best strikers in world football on that basis.

Isn't he only 21, or something silly like that? Will be frightening in a few years.

Big, big goal that. Will be interesting to see how Everton come out in the 2nd half, but you'd have to say that this is set-up perfectly for City now. Win this...and they're done bar the shouting.

Class player. Reason why we started the season with so many clean sheets, it was plainly obvious that we'd struggle once he had his injury lay off. Last year, although Cork and Morgan are so good on the ball, they're easy to play through and the opposition do end up getting more time on the ball. But with Wanyama in the side, whether it's his head, foot, toe, chest...he will block it, break it up and halt the proceedings. He's never going to be what I'd call a pretty player, but he's bloody damn effective at what he does. It must give Lovren and Fonte so much confidence that they have such protection in front of them - and he does literately sit there all game.
