christ if you're looking to the FA for comfort then good luck to you

Frank Lampard's Chelsea not being televised first match? No chance.

Seems like it from what's been said above - if it happens, would imagine fee will end up closer to £15m, or a bit lower with a load of add-on's.

He'll feel right at home during training then.

The fact that using a mobile phone is deemed a 6 point offence (which I agree with totally), but it's not illegal to smoke whilst driving. Not sure how holding something that is essentially on fire whilst driving isn't deemed dangerous.

Would suggest that McCarthy is on his way

People who stop in the middle of the pavement for no reason. People who walk down the pavement looking at their phone and not paying attention to whats in front of them. People who leave their trolleys abandoned in the middle of the isle. Women who think pushing a pushchair gives them the right to take up the entire pavement. Old people who 'accidentally' push in queues. People who aren't ready to order when they're at the till. Attention seeking helmets. Coriander sprinkled on the top of everything. This thread is great

So was Dele Alli though... all comes down to opportunity, 1st team exposure and the quality of the coach. Must be worth a punt

Great move for the lad from a wage/prestige perspective, though hard to see him being a regular there. Will probably end up out on loan somewhere in the next 12 months.

"Marking"

This.

By beating Arsenal and Man City? Really?

Obviously if a big bid comes in for him, we won't turn it down. I'd be surprised however if any elite club wants him just yet - he's been great on the whole for us, but still makes too many rash decisions for me. If he has a consistent season next year, I think he'll go after then.

Personally thought he had a very good game yesterday. Still things he needs to learn, like getting tighter to his man and consistent delivery, but he covered so much ground. For a 19 year old, he’s quicker and stronger than pretty much the rest of our team. He seemed to be the only one who could outmuscle and keep up with King/Wilson - compare that to Stephens and Bednarek who looked like a couple of wet lettuces. Much more to come from him next year and if he carries on, he won’t be here much longer.

That would be relying on Bournemouth to get something at Brighton, which based on their currently mentality, has next to no chance of happening. No doubt they'll be putting everything into their biggest game of the season on 27th April

Also, where it says - "And, with new individual matchday pricing for 2019/20 – details of which will be confirmed soon – there will be even better value than in previous years for Season Ticket holders." - so are they essentially saying that individual match ticket prices are going up, which makes season tickets better value?!

The £399 season ticket looks to me like a concerted effort by the club to get themselves down the table of 'cheapest available season tickets' - where I'm sure it was Spurs, Arsenal, Chelsea & Liverpool that were the only clubs ahead of us. As for £22 discount... just over £1 a game... cheers for that.

Good luck to him, can't see him being a regular their - Richarlison, Walcott, Bernard, Lookman, Calvert Lewin, all vying for similar positions. Or we could just take Lookman off their hands instead..

Chelsea players going through the motions, playing like they want Sarri getting the sack. Bunch of weapons

Henderson off injured tonight, so you never know... though he might try and call up another full back instead as we look a bit light there.

Hopefully means we do have a get out in the deal, though don’t think we’ll be that lucky. Very reluctant to part with £20m on someone who doesn’t stay fit for more than a handful of games.

Brilliant save by Gunn at 0-1

Kane looked very offside at the time from where were sat (block 5), not that the linesman was up with play anyway

Jesus, give it a rest FFS.
