Bewildered

Decent half, United are there for the taking.

Tadic was out on the pitch having a fitness test, according to Adam Blackmore.

Aside from Bertrand, our crossing has been absolute rubbish so far.

Back four and Wanyama were immense, could have been out there until next Saturday and not let anything through. In the end some poor finishing from Mané and Pelle was all that prevented it from ending 3-0.

Poorest we've played all season in the second half, too busy arguing with the ref for the first and some poor set piece defending was punished for the second. After Begovic kept them in it with a couple of saves, we looked panicky and sat way too deep. Having said all that, the players showed the mental toughness that we lacked last season and were able to dig out a win at the death. No way that would have happened last season. Also, good to get the win over that bunch of dirty bastards. If they aren't making dangerous tackles, they are playacting or resorting to other forms of gamesmanship.

If Rodriguez is going to just run down his contract then let him go, but not until the summer. He will be needed while Mané is at AFCON. Also, tomorrow's Sun back page says we will offer Spurs 10m for Harry Kane.

Arsenal losing to Anderlecht now, not the best defending from Chambers.

Excellent result and performance. Mané looks to have the potential to be a real threat when he adjusts to the English game Gardos was outstanding, our options at CB are much better this season if we have a CB of that ability as 3rd choice. Targett was also outstanding. But for some better finishing we could have won that 3 or 4-1.

RK needs to give them a boot up the arse at HT. Started looking too complacent after 30mins, just lucky Newcastle have been so bad up to now.

Playing for Senegal in AFCON qualifier against Egypt, just scored to puit them 2-0 up on the stroke of half time.

OK Alderweireld done, saving the big money transfer for last?

Jos to Norwich now confirmed

Belgian journalist who has reported all the Alderweireld stuff saying TA deal is done

Simon Peach says Ramirez to Hull not done, but likely. Also says it is a loan with no buy option

"Please Boss, anywhere but Hull!"

Kristof Terreur ‏@HLNinEngeland 2m Official confirmation on its way for Toby Alderweireld and Southampton. #saintsfc

Mane supposedly done just as Ramirez appears to be off...

Gaston not gone yet according to simon peach

Good news, anything on Ramirez (if you have a post left)?

Graeme Bailey ‏@GraemeBailey 1m Norwich have agreed to sign Jos Hooiveld on loan from Southampton for the rest of the season. http://www.goal.com/en-gb/live-update/1054/breaking-football-transfer-news-live …

Who is Andy Mitten?

From, the OS statement on Taider

Simon Jones just rewrites other people's stuff so it's reliability is entirely dependent on which outlet he got the story from.

Daily Echo live transfer thing says Capel rumour is wide of the mark and Mane is still preferred choice with Redmond as a second choice should Mane deal stall.
