From POL, on Harry Redknapp...

Utter utter rubbish, PSG signed Neymar because they are owned by Qatar. This is about Qatar flexing its financial muscle, and a middle finger to its rivals in the Middle East. They won't make back the £200M + they forked out, but it's loose change to the Qataris so why should they care? Man Utd sacked their managers because they under performed, and failed to qualify for the Champions League. Your post is long but full of waffle and it is mostly ********.

I admire your optimism. I'm not sure many of the forum members can 'play nice'.

And drop Lemina?

It's clear the current tactics aren't working at all. Yes we won, but we didn't really create that many clear cut chances. Pellegrino isn't a fool and knows something has to change. 3-5-2 could well be the tactic that achieves positive changes.

Not a chance of him coming back, ever.

I hope we put up a better fight than Everton did in the final 10 minutes

Probably a reflection on the performance of the other Everton players!

Out for 12 weeks, so he might not even make the return fixture at the end of December

Martina starting at Old Trafford. Should be interesting viewing.

I do wonder if he is suffering from a lack of confidence

Some were linked with him in the summer before we signed him anyway

Cheers. Didn't sound too loud on the TV, only a few murmurings. The reaction at home will be much more interesting.

Watching it on the TV, I thought it was the Palace fans booing Tadic as he was going off (they had been heckling him before that), can anyone at the game confirm it was our end booing VVD or not?

I'm off to this one. Last saw us play Man Utd in 2005, FA Cup game, and we got stuffed 4-0. I think we'll lose, but I'll judge things on whether or not there is an improvement in the performance compared to the last home match, which was unacceptable in every area.

Heisenberg should be along any minute now to tell us how we should be more like Everton

Quieter too because the WUMs can't wind up people as easily. And yes trousers, I know that there are no trolls on this forum ;)

We dominated and deserved the win, without playing that well. Big improvement needed for Saturday.

How long before someone claims we should bring him back?

Of course there are. We'll finish in the top half again, no problems. One defeat and suddenly the whole forum claims we're in a relegation battle

Don't say Palace aren't up to much before we've played them!

We're in the away kit.

Not sure who has performed worse, Everton or Heisenberg

Some bad news - Robert Madley is the referee

Great news - Lawrenson has predicted a Palace victory http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/41243874
