I noticed Kevin Keegan on SSN earlier, said something along the lines of Liverpool should let Coutinho leave, and can't moan about Barcelona unsettling him because they've been doing the same thing to VVD. I always did like King Kev myself, even if he is before my time.

Huddersfield doing well is good for us. We won't underestimate them, and we'll be their toughest challenge by a country mile.

I know my predictions can be hit and miss, but I got Bournemouth spot on. They've overpaid for average players and signed Defoe for crazy money. No goals, two defeats, probably won't go down because there are more than three sides worse than them, but it'll be a long season for them.

Agreed. If it was only the one penalty he'd missed, then fair enough. But he's missed a couple and was lucky not to miss yesterday's too.

I hope we do take it seriously, but if I had a choice between either the league or FA Cup, it'd be the FA Cup for me Clive all day long.

Forster should have done better. There were other factors - letting Antonio get the shot away, and Bertrand ball watching and not tracking Hernandez - but that doesn't mean Forster is entirely blameless.

Bizarre, I very much doubt we will be looking to sell Gabbiadini at all.

I'll be honest, if we are going to have a go at the cups, I'd rather we went for the FA Cup

Of course he's playing well, it's summer. He'll drop off or get injured around October/November time.

:lol:

They're all so sh*t, hard to differentiate between them

When Lee Mason was the ref, you'd know there'd be controversy He gave a last minute penalty against Arsenal last season too, he loves the drama. Thankfully we benefited this time.

Forster pushed the shot straight in the path of the striker, so he does deserve a lot of the blame.

FFS Forster, we were looking comfortable and then you go and do that. We should still win, we're carving them up pretty easily, especially with Fonte having one of his usual defensive masterclasses, but ffs, talk about putting unneccessary pressure on yourselves.

Winston Reid injured in the warm up apparently

Hope we target their right hand side. Bertrand and Redmond up against Zabaleta could be carnage.

Glad to see Lemina playing Looking at that team, it's got a good balance to it. Fonte starting for West Ham, great news for us.

What the former (and failed) Kidderminster Harriers manager has to say is completely irrelevant

Hoot I think

You know all about making yourself look silly

Not Premier League, but José Fonte's brother has just signed for Fulham

They have no pace up front at all. That is going to be a big problem for them I feel. Add to the extra European games, and I can see them languishing in the 8th/9th/10th positions. Certainly nowhere near the top 4.

If he does comes back into the fray, he'll give his all, at least for his teammates' sake, and we'll probably move on and forget eventually. Until May comes around. The fans will boo him initially though. Of that there is no doubt.
