midds

Can't help feeling we're being used to smoke other clubs out. It's an easy link for the agent to put out there.

Key players out. Mentioned it at least 4 times in about 2 minutes.

This is what I'd like to happen, it won't though. Elliot Janmaat Mbemba Colo Mbabu Tiote Aarons Sissoko Gini Thauvin Mitro You want us to be relegated? Absolutely nothing wrong with that XI tbh. 2 players started less than 5 premier league games between them. Tiote picked behind a no defending midfield based on one half decent game, a striker who can't score, a winger who hasn't done anything since he signed, a defender that can just attack and a past it centre back. That's just the start. It's the best we could currently name imo. How would you set us up?

Colback's 2 match ban is imminent and Anita is out for another few weeks. He's got no option but to try Tiote, Wijnaldum and Sissoko as a central 3 and mix and match the other 3 places. http://i.imgur.com/rPJKZ7w.jpg Nah, he can't. Surely he won't? Surely?...

Llambias comes back. yikes. so, it wouldn't go to his wife or kid or some such? Kill them all.

Not yet. You've forced 3 corners in quick succession and the keeper is looking ropey though Are these Newcastle corners or normal team corners? Parky corners. They're a bit different.

2 x CM Manager would do me.

Generally around 4/7 ish to go down now with the bookies.

Big 8 now. Never expected anything from Arsenal (A) but other results have made it far more likely than not now. Looking decidedly fucked.

"Same again lads"

Villa are long overdue a win and they may not have a better chance for a while yet. Think they may get it today but I hope it's a draw tbh.

Suspended.

Exactly. We were fucking wretched between the group stage finishing and the knock-outs starting. Monumentally wank.

It's been binned but not by a mod...

ok Hard to believe he's having to remind folk that we actually managed to go 3 games without getting beat. 3.

A complete horsing. We're pathetic.

You're not modifying this btw.

As an aside Bamford wouldn't be the worst loan to pick up in January...

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/35191686 Patrick Bamford ends 'terrible' Crystal Palace loan "That was my last game for Palace," he said. "If I were being honest, it has been terrible. No one wants to sit on the bench and not play. "It was my decision. The gaffer hasn't actually spoken to me."

Just not getting results. Don't think he's lost the dressing room but we look toothless, disorganised and I don't think he's got enough about him to change it. We've played every team now and we're rooted in the relegation zone, it's a results business and his have been appalling.

I'll knock this up to a solid 6 now. Horrible set of results today and we're now adrift.
