Has done great in CM as well. Like him alot.

I'd sell if we could get m'Vila but suspect it would be Mulumbu which wouldn't be the end of the world. If we had to sell one top player it would be Tiote for me as his passing isn't as good as it should be at this level. Still hope he stays mind.

Don't recall us getting the chance to defend our Inter Toto, Anglo Italian or Texaco cups. Smell a rat.

Doesn't get an excellent until we get silverware - but keep up the good work

Montpellier players may be more likely to leave if ........

Wonder which game Pards is at.

Why is Debuchy not playing for Lille?

The fair thing would be to have a play off between Spurs and Chelsea. Winners in the CL, losers in Europa. Each gets a chance.

Jonas v Wolves away has to be in Colo v Forest for the sheer timing Cabaye v Blackburn (LC)

If spurs don't make Champs League then things will be up in the air. They need a striker most of all.

What formation are we playing?

England team is around 10th May

It doesn't half help if you've got pace and a great first touch. Positioning can be learnt.

Like the idea of Martin too. Had a quiet year and so might fit into the bargain category.

Most important thing is to beat Wigan and put the pressure on Spurs playing the day after. The last three games are in the lap of the Gods and a true test.

Happy to have a lucky manager if thats how he stumbled on the present formation. Personally think he got here by design but think its fair to say we could have reached the present formation and players sooner. I think we had such a good start in terms of results that it was too easy to stick with the early season formula. We tried the 433 pre Xmas but the signing of Cisse, the realisation that HBA has to play and the move of Jonas to a central holding player has only really happened these last six games. Additionally Cabaye looks at home in a midfield three though I think he could player deeper or in the role he played against Stoke. Santon has also looked stronger recently.

I hope City win today and in the Manchester derby because that ŵould set up some game for us to watch early May.

To 'Drop your shoulder' is to feint to go one way , then go the other. It was sublime but unfortunately he is paired with simpson and it came to nothing. when we get Debuchy..........

Good but Cabaye was MotM

Credit to Tiote and Jonas as well as Cabaye for making it work in midfield today

I heard Shanks is back managing the stiffs.

Our final position is determined by winning games not goal difference. I think in the past four games we've gone 2-0 up and just shut up shop. If a third comes along, great, but we're set up not to concede. I think this is a winning mentality we need to adopt and in time the big wins will come. Glad he protected Cabaye and Cisse today. Not just for them but vecause it's the squad that's got us here and we should trust them to close out games. I still think we're a team just forming and today was 3-0 without ever really leaving third gear - just a few moments of class.

£25k is a fair offer for a squad player in a top six side. I think Danny sees himself as a first team regular for the next four years, I hope the club see it differently. Wish Danny well whatever happens and certainly think his recent games have been his best of the season.
