Hasn't it got to be mentioned in referee's report for it to be deemed dealt with?

Nothing wrong with Gayle's movement, comes short, runs the channels and spins behind, more Perez not linking up with Gayle effectively. Oh, and he's worried that his hamstrings might explode.

From hero to zero very quickly. Ruthless Rafa!

A totally unexpected stroll in the park. West Ham were woeful, but it was a great confidence booster for the lads. The only worry we had on Saturday was when the ref consulted with the 4th official, and the whole stadium held its breath expecting the usual outcome in those circumstances and one of ours to be sent off. The relief was palpable when he eventually booked one of their players.

Reasonable chance he'll sell us in the next 12 months.

What the fuck are you on?

Did not expect that. Joselu massive upgrade on Mitro but Ritchie was the man today, worked his socks off.

Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere. Pardew was forced out because of places like this, and it will give me great pleasure to keep making Ashley's life uncomfortable if he pushes another good manager out to bring in a yes man arse licker. Phew! That's a relief!

OK, I can see Merino's undoubted quality but, for me, he was caught out by how quickly he was closed down last week and, on several occassions, he put himself needlessly under pressure by not moving the ball quickly enough. No doubt he'll learn, but he's got to learn quickly. No easy task for the lad and that's why Bilic will have him targeted.

One out, one in. Wasn't that the deal fat boy?

Needs to pick up the pace of the game and not dwell on the ball this week. Bilic will have him targeted.

Defeatist! Big game so the crowd will be up for it. Get behind Rafa and the lads.

Shhhh!. Shop window man!

Your support is fucking shit!

If he stays fit, he could be a key player for us this season.

Actually pulled off a Bergkamp in midfield. Not sure how Colback got the nod over him based on tonight's performance.

Didn't happen! Made some decent runs but Aaron's looked better tonight.

On way to match and totally deflated by that lineup.

Hawksbee and Jacobs on Talksport . Radios version of Baddiel and Skinner Not nearly as funny.

He's got a £22 million release clause though..

Shop window?

What? You mean he actually moved?

Ooooh! He's got a box! Must be true! FFS.

If true, a good opportunity to get an upgrade in.

Bit in bold, utter rubbish! Lejeune is likely to be the best CB we have, Merino is much better than Colback and Joselu is an upgrade on Mitro.
