Manuel

Redmond is so one footed which doesn't help infront of goal.

Endless crosses that get cleared. If we're going to keep doing that we need to buy a tall physical striker to get on the end of them.

Sims. I would like to see him start more often.

We should all be allowed megaphones.

I wondered how The Sun would report it, given the terrible disrespect they gave him as England manager. They've quoted Ferguson saying some fairly nice things about him on their lurid website. It would probably be more dignified for them to say nothing at all.

Well you can't say much negative about Puel after that. By far the better team and would have been a whitewash if our players were any good at shooting.

Or maybe a central midfield role, can do some attacking and defending.

Our best chance for something special to happen this season. Full strength side please and the players had better be up for it. Hopefully Liverpool will rest a few and we can take advantage.

Need a team full of Virgils.

JWP needs to be subbed.

Put out all the sulky players today, see if they can manage a win against a Championship side. If not, they can get booed.

The place is falling apart. No player leaves until this mess is sorted out. We brought Puel in for stability, for the long term and it looks like he'll be out before the season's out. So unsettling for the players. I hate to say it but we need to focus on league position now.

We were competitive and at times the better team, but we don't put away what we create. Bad run of form now. I still think there's a hope we could come good with Puel if we invest in the window but we can't leave it like this.

Looked like a head wound.

Boufal for JWP now he's on a card?

Forster and Fonte very good halves.

Not bad, missing Austin.

Yes I wanted him at the time. I remeber there was some issue about him not showing too much interest in developing the kids, whether there's any truth to that. I'd still have him here in a second.

Yep, yellow every time. Totally crumbled under pressure.

Thanks for that, much needed. My sportsmania is pants today for some reason.

Vic looked fitter and more mobile yesterday, and more of a threat going forward.

If you want to decrease homelessness you should vote for a different government then increase or redistribute taxes. Sniping at the periphery of the problem won't help anyone.

In, but we need more strength and creativity from midfield and another striker. Puel's doing as well as he can with what we have.

Suspect Clasie would have been first choice over JWP if he was fit, otherwise good team.

If he wants to come back he can come back on the same wages when he left, increased for inflation only. His Manure move at those wages was an error, he'd do well to take a step back.
