I'm not a McCarthy fan at all, but he is capable of putting in match winning performances. Something we've never seen from Baz sadly

I want the old Le Tiss back 😞

Openers are key. I'm hopeful Orr will turn out to be an inspired signing and that Middleton continues to develop. Great to see Prest in the runs as well

We dropped him on 30?! That was costly.... Not a great start for our openers this season. We're going to need to bat until tea tomorrow to salvage the game it seems

I still think there's a good chance he ends up at 'pool tbh. When managers announce they are leaving before the season ends their teams tend to drop off in intensity and results suffer, and obvs they have the opportunity to achieve something incredible! It's unlikely he can better this season, so strong argument to get out whilst his stock is highest, unless he's waiting for Madrid. Massive congrats Tella! A player we can be genuinely delighted for

I would not have guessed that in a million years!! Although now I know it does sound like him. Sounds like he has had a 40 a day habit since retiring though...

Who's co commentating on iFollow today?

Doing ok against Lancs so far today. Durham are having a mare though, given Warks are 380-1!! Shows how unlucky we were to have our game with them rained off in it's entirety

Tbf earlier in the season his in game decisions were spot on, and we often went on to win games after his subs. It does seem to have gone off the boil though, or he's been found out.

Reminds me of this goal "scored" against us by Saha all those years back https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kckbm78qiKU

Thanks for clarifying. Table I looked at had saints on 18 games still... Ah well maybe next year.

That makes it 6 points from last 5 games... This was a game we really should've been winning. Still, 4 points off top with a game in hand shows we're not out of it, but got to put a great run together now (sounds remarkably similar to the men's team ATM!)

Only us and Munich are more than a couple of points off top of our respective leagues in that table. Shows the importance of possession, but as has been pointed out we've been lacking in execution sadly...

It'll mean they'll need to play him more in the games he's fit for though. It's also pretty likely that Juve won't have any money to buy him anyway, even if the fee was reduced. Unless there's a swap deal on I can't see it happening

Good luck Ralph! Guess that means he's off our payroll if he's found another role?

Beat Reading 5-0 today! It was live on FA Player. I only watched half of the first half but we looked great going forward, albeit Reading were equally inept defensively

Nice to see fans of other clubs like to write off players after 2-3 games as well!

Not to many on here sadly... But I agree with you. Hope we persevere with him

Cmon be fair... Lavia was a steal! It was only c£90m wasted

Not really surprising. We spend £100m on new players that year. Recouped most of that through sales this year so hopefully we're ok, but who knows with football finances

Look at their form before those 7 games and tell me it's not a big improvement, particularly given who they've played in that time as The Cat points out

Huge difference between managing at PL and managing L1. Look at Jones for another example, doing great at Charlton after being a catastrophe for us. And plenty who watched the Chelsea game at the time acknowledged that, whilst it was a great win, we rode our luck massively. I felt at the time it was nuts to give Selles the job full time after one game

Loving the positivity on here atm 😂 If we're in the playoffs, unless Leeds are also in there, we will be heavy favourites. We're on a blip ATM without a doubt, but come the end of the season I expect our class to shine through again. We didn't go 25 games undefeated for nothing!

People were saying the same about Edioze not so long ago and he's turned it around. Sulemana has loads of potential but hasn't had a solid run in the first team, mainly this season due to injury. However he was by far our most dangerous looking player at the start of the season before he got injured. People are far too quick to write players off. There's a potentially brilliant player in Sulemana

Even worse is how he is utterly incapable of counting to three at the correct speed...
