Classy.

What a day that was.

Are they? Never heard this like, window lickers if so. Was a random rumour from ages ago. My Sheffield United supporting mate, who mentioned it to me, thinks it would actually be a good appointment.

For me, the defence (including Krul); our team spirit (leading to our never-say-die attitude); adopting a new style of play (the passing it along the deck rather than playing long balls) have been the key factors to our brilliant start/run so far. And the lack of injuries/suspensions to our key players as pointed out above have been a plus too.

Indeed.

A doubt. He has tonsillitis but in an interview to Talksport, he says he's feeling better and feels he can play tomorrow.

Team spirit is shot

Our local press seem to be sure. Of course, nothing has been confirmed yet so things could still change.

As far as I'm aware, he's still doubtful. Tiote has said he can play but whether Pardew/physios think so is another matter.

Aye!

What a fucking cunt. Disgusting behaviour.

Ah well, appearance points then

Totally unrelated but loads of your mob were at the Estadio de la s**** y'day. Where is that? Sunderland http://c0014019.r32.cf1.rackcdn.com/x2_905a107 Surely those lads wearing the strips were forced to do so?

I've actually always liked him whenever I have seen him He gives you hope that fat people can become professional footballers too. Andy Reid.

Nice! Bothroyd finally scoring

Barton moved inside to CM

To some extent, aye. But on the other hand, he's made his bed so let him lie in it.

The commentator on Five Live has just said that he's surprised to see Barton on the right instead of CM.

Luiz is on the verge of being a great player. Still only 24, so I guess he still has plenty of time on his side to develop.

Took Bale out of my fantasy football team last week. Still stand by that change despite his goal today.
