Ho ho ho, nightmare start for Swansea. Chelsea owe us one really.

Wenger's last ever league game, no way are Arsenal going to lose that one. Chelsea are in good form, and Man City are, well, Man City. It's looking bleak for them, they had to win this one and they ****ed it up.

On a serious note, it is the one weakness he has, motivating his players to perform at the end of the season when they have nothing to play for. Happened with us too, although I'd argue the players should shoulder some of the blame too. Contrast to Allardyce has a point to prove at Everton as their fans have been criticising him, what does Puel have to prove? Another top half finish, job done for him, and their players are saving themselves for the World Cup.

Huddersfield are now in major trouble. They won't get any more points, one more win for us and we're safe.

Who cares, we won, that's all that matters. Some people on this forum are far more obsessed with how Leicester do than ourselves

I said Bournemouth were rubbish. Never got going in the second half, and they kept giving the ball away.

****ING GET IN THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well at least that rules out a 1-4 scoreline. That leaves 4-3 as a possibility

£40M worth of talent

They're on the beach, who cares, he kept them up, job done. Another success story confirmed.

Bring on Ward-Prowse for a defender, Hojbjerg on for Redmond, let's go 4-3-2-1.

A point isn't a disastrous result, it takes us to within three of Swansea. But we need to win this to go within three of Huddersfield. If they lose and we do get the win, another win for us will see them get relegated for sure, because they're not picking up any more points with their fixtures.

We were never going to keep a clean sheet, I'd rather they scored now. We can regroup and go again. It's quite concerning that this team can't even see out a half though ffs.

FFS dreadful defending again

This is what annoys me about our tactics. Under Koeman, we’d take the lead and then immediately push for a second, retaining possession and control the game. But we’re sitting so far deep and just inviting the opposition to have chances.

Austin's record against Bournemouth is pretty good, fancy him to bag a couple today. We won't keep a clean sheet, that's for certain. I fancy another 4-3 game.

Very interesting read. At least there aren't any release clauses and there are wage drops, so the club aren't as incompetent as we first thought. If we do go down, I don't think there will be the mass exodus everyone predicts.

Given how attacking Bournemouth's wing backs are, there could be a lot of space for Tadic and Redmond to get at them.

I don't agree with that team really. We don't need three centre backs and Hojbjerg should be starting ahead of Lemina

A point for Stoke won't be good enough, as long as they don't win.

Leicester sung it at St Mary's. Same tune as 'You're not fit to wear the ****' or 'you're not fit to referee' etc.

Puel, responsible for leading two teams to two top half finishes in successive seasons, is responsible for us being in the relegation zone. I'm sure even you don't really believe that
