Lovren doesn't have a twitter account. He deleted it.

Rooney did it with Man Utd Arsenal struggling to hold on to Sanchez and Ozil I predict Leicester in the summer will have a mass exodus on their hands.

The club will do well to get £13M but the Chinese will definitely be willing to pay that amount. If we do get that amount then fair play to Les Reed.

We have a lot of games in January. The rotation will continue for a little while yet. Once we're back to playing once a week, we can play the same XI.

Who says he will go in January? The news has only come out because Les wants to drum up some interest. Hardly surprising considering he hasn't exactly set the world on fire this season...

No different to the cup games against Sunderland or Palace. The current first team isn't exactly doing well...

Alderweireld? He was replaced pretty well... Top quality CBs are difficult to find and it will be tough, but we've done it before and we'll do it again I'm sure.

I'm seeing some morons on Twitter trying to blame Puel for this. They obviously haven't listened to the whole interview, where it's clearly stated that this was going on before Puel even arrived. If there have been things going on behind the scenes, then perhaps it's a miracle that we're as high in the table as 10th.

It's interesting that the club has released this themselves. He probably won't leave in January. Les Reed has made it perfectly clear that we won't let him go without us signing an adequate replacement.

I have never said that Puel is not replaceable. But sack him just because we've lost three games and a few of the players think they know better? Of course not.

Let's hope they don't show themselves up in front of the entire nation live on Sky tomorrow night.

Liverpool were in the Europa League last season, didn't rotate and finished rather low down in the table.

Monday morning

Eric Black perhaps is the major issue here. Also, we don't really here much from Pascal Plancque, the other coach.

Calling Guan or K.Billy to confirm or refute the rumours please...

No, what I am saying is that the bad form isn't just down to the manager. The players need to up their game. After the first goal against Everton, the players capitulated. Why? Of course, the manager should take some responsibility but it's not all his fault.

Always easy for the manager to get the blame. The players should look at themselves. 1 goal all season for Long is pathetic from him. Say what you want about the manager's tactics, formation etc. but the players have to take responsibility too for the bad form. I'm wondering, therefore, if Nigel Adkins's presence in the stands on Saturday was not a coincidence. Perhaps he's being lined up to take charge for the rest of the seasn, like Hiddink did for Chelsea last season. There would be a better calibre of managers available in the summer, if we do indeed to part company with Puel, rather than hire someone straight away.

No way we should sign Defoe. He has one, maybe two decent seasons left in him. He would be a waste of money.

I will hold my hands up as being someone this time last year who wouldn't have been sad to see Koeman go. I was wrong then and I'm confident that things will turn around in the next few league games. Even under Pochettino we had our dodgy moments. QPR at home, Cardiff at home, West Brom at home

So why was Austin scoring for fun until he got injured? If he was playing and still fit, I have no doubt we'd have won or drawn some of the games in which we dropped points. That's why I blame the board for not signing another striker in the summer, and why we should be pushing urgently to bring one in.

Or this temporary bad form is deceiving the deluded pessimists who want us to sack our manager every other 10 games like Hull or Swansea

The links to Aston Villa are beyond stupid. They were in a relegation battle. We are not

I'd rather have Adkins back than Eddie Howe
