United's side won't be all that good,not with games this Tuesday and then against Villa the Tuesday after. Villa can play and now that they've a goalscorer they may well upset a few apple carts.

Pretty hard on Chaplow there, however if he was as bad as you seem to say then it's no wonder that we weren't all that good. No doubt he was supposed to be carrying the ball forward.He does seem to blow hot and cold from time to time. Must be some sort of reason why Preston's fans hated him so much,other than having played for Burnley that is.Maybe not fully fit,awful condamnation on Puncheon and Gobern (and everybody else really) if that is the case.

Can't see what all the fuss is about. This was bound to happen when his loan ended and we couldn't agree terms with Millwall. He wants to go there,he isn't good enough for our starting 11 apparently and yet we keep him here. The manager knew this situation would arise, so did we all, so we just need to sort out something with a club that wants him.Millwall have obviously cocked up by buying McQuoid who can't get a game and not offering enough for Puncheon.

Murphy at one end, Sharpe at the other=recipe for success in getting out of League 1

Mind you having to replace him with a left back really helps doesn't it. I just cannot believe that in all the "development squad" malarkey we haven't got something that resembles an attacking midfielder.One is led to believe that apart from the 15 or 16 players that appear regularly for us all the rest is just pure rubbish.Some of these lads are 19 going on 20 and they still haven't made a first team appearance in the last 2 years whereas the young lads in our side Ox,Morgan and Adam are in the first team all the time and 2 of them have a shedload of games behind them. It's all very well being development orientated but if there's no end product and you have to use one of your left backs as a winger then something isn't quite right.

But you have to face up to the facts,we gave away 2 free goals and we can't score. If Man U do that they'd lose as well. Our problem in the 2 matches that we've lost in the last couple of months is gift goals.Sure we want to win but above all for these games we don't need to lose. Take today, if Kelvin and José don't firk up we'd not have been down at half time. We wouldn't have to keep changing formation and maybe we don't concede the second goal either. Gift Goals= Major Problem.

It's obviously their system that scores the goals and not the individualities.

I think Mills is back with us now, seemed to be on the preview video the other day. Injured perhaps.

We sell him to Millwall, or one of those "other" clubs that are keen on signing him (if you believe agent talk in the papers).Jackett has said he wants him but our price is far too high.There is absolutely no point in retaining a player against his wishes if you have some sort of valid(and reasonable) offer for him.

they score goals consistently, that's their great strength.

But it's obvious that he no longer wants to be here. We have seemingly priced him out of a move that he wanted to happen,so Millwall have signed someone they could afford. That's the trouble with letting players go out on loan, if they like where they went and you put an enormous price tag on them they tend to get ****ed off.If we told him on Thursday he was on the bench today and yet he was a starter at Millwall, well then I can see him being hacked off.

I'm not sure that's exactly what he said, he seemed to be talking about getting the ball out wide and I heard it as "so we looked to Morgan,well i don't want to name players but we weren't quick enough to the second ball". Could be wrong though, I wasn't paying all that much attention.

Richardson does the job when neither Hammond or Kelvin are on the pitch.

A lot will depend on why Puncheon didn't figure, if he's sick or injured fair enough. If it's just that he's fallen out with the management again then that would seem unacceptable.Also the Ox situation needs clarification,as far as we know nothing has happened there but in that case we need to scotch the Daily Express crap once and for all.

we haven't got a reserve side, just a few extra players and a mish mash of kids who aren't stepping up to challenge for first team places. We're on TV so if we play the U21s + Pulis we'll be a national and international laughing stock.TV means we have to put our best side out I'm afraid.

game isn't on Tuesday, it's in April, but you knew that didn't you.

Being a plastic Manc is one of life's soft options, you'll always be on the winning side sooner or later.

Benjii, you obviously do not understand the importance of giving away soft goals early on.It changes the whole game. No Lallana??? you're still on even terms and get a point. You give a goal away needlessly early on,well then you have to chase the game and take more risks.This isn't about Lallana it's about a keeper f*cking up yet again .

Disappointed that we have again lost after giving away a stupid goal early on. Those things change everything because you're running after the score from 15 minutes in. We have to stop this. If we can't then we have to put the players concerned into the reserves until they learn that soft absurd goals could cost the club promotion. For me Davis has to be dropped until he can learn to command at least his 6 yard box.We must be able to afford a keeper who does not make those elementary mistakes every 5 or 6 games.

we can't possibly know, all deals are "undisclosed" nowadays. Dickson,Guly,Chaplow and Richardson anyway. Perhaps a bit less than a million in total.

Have they paid the bill??

Just no efficiency in front of goal again.Loads of chances, no end result. We really do need to address that.

can't be we don't have the depth our spending is all on first team players.

I hope we have a good reason for casting aside Puncheon for today.

Jennings seems to be the brighter of the wonder boys today.Why couldn't Arse sign him up last week.
