Well we know Kane will score whatever. Entertaining 2-2 draw

Sorry but I really don’t see anything in him whatsoever. Someone said he’s a battering ram....yeah Ok maybe. Play him against Huddersfield, let’s hope he can grab a goal there and then hopefully it sets him on his way

Absolutely wonderful news and well deserved Franny

A Bournemouth supporting friend of mine didn’t take too kindly to being sent a copy of the league table from last night. Came back with Cherries finishing above us two seasons running. I went back with the only time(s) in the clubs entire history.......haven’t heard from him since !!

Watched that on Prime and I didn’t get nervous once. They were superb today, every single one of them (bar Adams) - best I have seen for months. Very pleased for Obafemi, I still think he’s got something about him if he stays fit.

Would have thought so. If Hoj gets booked today isn’t he out for the Palace game though?

Yeah I agree but leaving out your only goal scorer does come across as a bit defeatist. ‘Didn’t he do similar against Chelsea last year ?

Youve downloaded the Prime Video app and logged in then? Just checked mine and on the Home screen I’ve got the games listed/shown at the top of the screen. If you haven’t got that log out and go back in again, might take a while to register perhaps?

Pearson will get Watford out of this, he’s done it before and although Man United blow hot and very cold they looked decent in beating them. Norwich and Villa have to carry on as they are then if we are to get out of it Bournemouth, Brighton and possibly Palace cos they don’t score many. Everton will be ok and if people seriously think Sheffield United will go all to hell that much then, well you can dream I suppose. I would love it to be Bournemouth and even though it appears that the Eddie Howe love in has hit a bump or two I expect they’ll get a surprise couple of results to edge them clear.

One swallow doesn’t make a summer. It would take a major injury crisis of almost plague like proportions for him to ever get within site of the England first eleven.

Thats the funniest thing I’ve read in ages. Didn’t she think about what she was gonna say before opening her mouth ?

no he got Stephens and Bednerek to go to the bar but after half an hour gave up as they’d spent the whole time going one step sideways, one step back and had vanished out into the cold night air....

What to visit West Quay for his Christmas shopping?

This is the fourth manager in a row where the default setting has been this slow, turgid side pass, back pass weird triangle thing the team performs. As already stated these stats are crap, 57% possession and I bet at least 70% of that was the side/back pass shuffle in the defensive third of the pitch. Two quotes from Ralph were particularly worrying, the one about being taken by surprise by the West Ham long ball.....actually that’s more inept than just worrying. How can you not know what the opposition do? Hey Ralph, watch Neville and Carragher on Sky’s MNF, they give you pretty big bloody clues !! The other quote was about “this isn’t a step backwards”.........oh really? What is it then? I hope Redmond getting the hook at half time acts as a kick up his ass. Next step bring back Romeu for Captain Fantastic. If PEH was being looked at by big European teams as was suggested 9 months ago I bet their scouts have saved a bloody fortune on air fares this season. No doubt January’s transfer window will bring the usual sound bites about strengthening and we end up maybe bringing in someone we haven’t heard of on the 31 January, if at all. We won’t bring in two competent central defenders or a right back or a holding midfielder or anyone who will radically improve the team. It will be nothing or more of the same. The team selection against Villa will probably be the same starting eleven as of late, Villa will rub their hands with glee at the chance to pull themselves away from immediate danger, we will perform better cos we do that away, as we slip to an unlucky but all too predictable 2-1 defeat, or 2-0 depending on Ings getting a decent chance. Ralph will bemoan our luck, a player, probably PEH or JWP will sound bite the fkin obvious abd we just stumble on to the next game doing exactly the same things with exactly the same end results etc etc etc....

Well Romeu should be picked ahead of PEH every bloody week

With the exception of Danny Ings and possibly Djenepo the rest of them can just **** off. If Ralph seriously believes this “settled team” is good enough he’s got a screw loose.

not at all, the alternative is to slash your wrists in desperation

No.

West Ham collapsed worse than we normally do tonight.

Apparently we cant criticise him now cos he tries and he cares The fact hes still absolute **** doesnt seem to matter !

He looked quite busy when he came on against Norwich but apart from that I’ve seen very little to impress. I am only going by home matches however where the whole team has been pretty woeful so it’s not fair to judge on that. Hopefully he just needs that first goal to take off confidence wise at least.

Highbury 1984 - 35 bloody years and it still kills me ! The Bent equaliser for Everton in 05 comes close. If I could make an honourable mention for Oldham in the League Cup in about 86 or 87.....it wasn’t so much the goal as referee Roger fkin Milford and his broken watch allowing a ridiculous amount of injury time. The bastard.

That was my feeling too. The defensive substitutions invited pressure that we just aren’t any good at defending. Has the manager not noticed that yet ? They had two great chances to get a point at the end. Had they done so Ralph would have been crucified on here.

Exactly, says it all if you have to go back two and a half years to remember a game where he played well

Is that so? Wow, and Eddie’s changed the style so they don’t even score many now !
