I've always felt he could do a job more centrally. Given a free role similar to Lallana last season.

A nice way trip down the M1 next season. Bournemouth beat Bolton Monday night and they'll be joining the Hornets.

Mane is potentially a £20m plus player. He and Pelle were brilliant. For once our attacking play was back and our defence disappointing. We were miles better than them today. Should have won.

Me and on my wrong foot would have hit the target on those last two. Davis is a great squad player but someone we can upgrade on in the window.

I'd expect £25m minimum and based on last summer I don't think the club will get mugged. Chambers went for £16m LOL

Does anyone know if Reed's red card would effect him playing Saturday?

What a huge game this is. Probably the team I want us to beat the most this season with Pochettino there and most Spurs fans generally being t*ssers (Le Tissier aside). Us fans have a huge part to play and possibly Pochettino will be a cataylst for a decent atmosphere. Would put Reed in ahead of Davis for this one and get him to try and nullify Eriksen. A draw wouldn't be too detrimental with them playing City the following game but really it's a must win. I don't see Spurs as being much different in ability to us other than them having Kane upfront. My have they been lucky that he has come out of nowhere to the level he is currently playing at. They'd be competing with Stoke without him.

Yeah that was horrible by the keeper.

1-1.

Agreed with the number 10 comments. Alongside the known replacements as well as a goalkeeper and a striker. If we can improve on what we have we'll be looking at another special season.

I think Yoshida has excelled under Koeman and was brilliant against Hull. I remember West Ham at home and he won virtually every header against Carroll. Think he is more physical than people give him credit for.

Hard to argue with this + GK. Would to see us assert our position as the best club outside of the traditional top 6 and sign some players from the PL teams below us. Certainly for a new forward. Austin and Ings or maybe both? Would love the club to put a bid in for Benteke but can't see that happening. Maybe a bid for Cisse or Mame Diouf. Certainly need a more mobile forward with the style we play under Koeman Personally think we need two new forwards unless Rodriguez stays.

This team please. Fancy a re-run of the Burnley game.

They would turn him into the next Shaun Wright-Phillips. Everything that is wrong with modern day PL football.

JWP is a very promising young player. Next season will be a big test for him to push on. Reckon when he gets his first goal he'll suddenly start scoring more. He was incredibly unlucky with that great save from Howard yesterday. He is only 20. In general the goal input from our midfield the second half of the season has been poor.

Is it too early to start the summer transfer thread?

Shame that Pelle is going to Barca this summer

Haha brilliant.

Awful news. Best wishes to Fraser in his recovery. Sounds like we'll be lucky to see him next season like JRod. New first choice keeper needed now in the Summer. No idea who the club may look at to bring in.

The tried that in the first half yesterday and it left us a bit exposed. Actually thought Pelle did everything but score yesterday.

Gaston has looked very good in the last 20 minutes I've seen.

Trippier had excellent delivery from his crosses in the first half.

Thought that too. His delivery was excellent in the first half.

His goal against Ipswich!

His role in the starting line up is a bit muddled. Does he play advanced or sit deep? When that role is clear he will blossom. Has all the right attributes to be a good player for us. Would love him to get a goal, would give him more confidence in his shooting. It was always going to be to impact a game where Chelsea were in our final third for the last 30 minutes. I do feel his set piece taking has been lacking of late.
