I imagine they will be in for Marco Silva

Underwhelming to say the least. Not sure i would call it underwhelming - both Gray and King have had their best seasons and are young enough to improve. They both also seem to have a lot of the attributes that Rafa requires from his forward players. I understand why it is more appealing to go for a potentially exciting player from another league, but i think in our position I would be looking to go for players who have experience of the league.

Sorry if Giggs but Man U have had a £72m bid for Mbappe rejected.

2-0 Swansea!

Haha, now Stoke miss a pen!

Like Colback? Why get behind s*** players? Cos they're the ones we've got and we want them to do as well as possible to get like promoted and that Plus he works hard, right? No - just the reasons i said. It's a matter of principle. You might disagree. Go on then, explain how criticising him on a message board is going to have any influence? Booing your players is one thing, but picking fault with them after a s*** season is another. It doesn't, but then again supporting him on a forum doesn't make a difference either. For what its worth i think he had a pretty good 1st half to the season, but i think the pressure has got to him and he has started to make a lot of mistakes. Some of the hyperbole on here about how bad he is is pretty riduclous.

Anyone can make a mistake, but the officials were talking amongst themselves for ages, surely they could have gone back and changed their minds?

So thick, man. I imagine some of the fee might have been based on appearances and achievements, but the idea that they can sell him at them end of the season and only give us £7m is laughable

Would you care to offer an explanation for our move to a more direct style?

I think in footballing terms at least both definitions are required - Steve Claridhe being the archetypal journeyman footballer who has played for loads of clubs at all levels and always been bang average.

Forest 3-0

Sunderland, Palace and Boro down with Bournemouth coming perilously close. With my predictions it only took 34 points to stay up.

What park? Not on here you didn't. There's only Ronaldo who rates the lad. Yeah, so much so I want him replaced in the summer. He's absolutely not as bad as folk make out, though. He's absolute dogshit man!

Dummett is shockingly bad like

I think his physical similarities to Carroll are part of the reason why people like him and want him to do well. With the exception of Ben Arfa, Carroll in his purple patch of form was the player of ours i have most enjoyed watching for years. It was my hope that Mitrovic could come in and do the same, but unfortunatley he cant finish and isn't even that dominant in the air.

You have to score from there like.

He's been ok, just looks a bit clumsy. Who to believe... who to believe. It's like civil war all over again.

Dummett had a good game midweek and there is no legitimate alternative, since Lazaar is an unknown quantity in defence. Gouffran doesnt offer enough going forward, admittedly. You can get away with one or the other in my opinion, but with both of them playing we Have zero threat on that side.

The left hand side lets the whole team down.

Crystal Palace are apparently in for M'Vila.

That's never a red.

Didn't we spend about the same as Aston Villa?

I agree. I'm delighted with the way the suqad is being managed at the moment, everyone who is playing is generally paying well, and those who aren't seem desperate to be included. I suppose it shouldn't be a surprise that a good manager knows how to manage his players in terms of keeping them happy and getting them to perform, but it does take some getting used to after Pardew and McClaren.
