he's looking to beat his marra fyp

Don't think this is a bad line-up, really. Nolan playing off Caroll, two wingers.

HTGOL

We've copyrighted Nicky Butt? Why, ffs?

Aye, but Simpson's been like that all season. I wonder if it's worth Jonas being on that side because he tends to track back better than Routledge...

Don't think it looks that bad, tbh.

They'd still need someone to talk. If nobody will there's little they can do. Let's face it, Taylor probably isn't talking right now. You can still talk, man. Have you never heard that Kanye West song?

Can't believe we're being extorted by Andy fucking Carroll. How did it come to this?

Looks like Frank Zappa trying to molest a be-wigged Susan Boyle.

He's as good as he is in this division, for sure. You mean can he step up to PL and perform? I'd think so, though it'd be a hell of a risk for us in comparison to, say, Citeh.

Didn't say "start". Said I hope he'll play which means I hope he'll be on the bench and might get 10 or 15 minutes. I think 'start' meant 'begin' in this context.

Rubbish, we'll come out fighting for this one We'll knock their block off, etc etc. Guarantee Mick Lowes'll come out with a few of these tonight. "It's seconds out..."

Christ, I agree with Phil K.

Hope we can get through this without further injuries. We'll have Nicky Butt at centre-half soon.

Finally, Taylor is starting to emulate his hero John Terry.

Course he is. The wife and kids is just a ruse.

And Mike Williamson has a broken hand, too? It's like Fight Club at the training ground!

Depends on the circumstances, obviously. Injuring fellow team-mates is hardly ideal behaviour, though. Could this count against him in terms of his other altercation?

This means he truly is the new Shearer, then?

Anelka has been no worse than Berbatov, tbh, and significantly better at times. I don't see how you can consider Man Utd's midfield to be on a par or better than Chelsea's, tbh. They might be under-performing, but as individuals they seem to be clearly better players to me.

Also, take into account that Drogba doesn't take penalties, those two do. Also take into account Drogba is surrounded by better players.

Simpson's a massive cause for concern, imo. Absolutely lost whenever someone runs at him.

Well he's only 12 years old himself.
