Atsu looks bright.

Rondon is in full flow.

Right lads. Enough fucking about.

In a good way Aye?

Super Ron.

Partly, mainly lascelles. Yedlin was marking him and then he dropped off him behind Lascelles back. Lacelles can't see what's going on behind him, as far as he was concerned Jota was marked. Yedlin told him.

Fuck sake. Centre backs giving the ball away.

Lascelles knew.

More so coming from Caulkins input. All Caulkins stuff has come from the club aye? Even so, he had an exclusive with Staveley last year, we saw how that went. Mike Ashley is involved = Bad News. Why is there never take over talk in February?

Not really checked in here yet but if you are all getting your hopes up, you want your heads checked. All of this stuff is coming from the club and all in the wake of Mike Ashley opening his gob. Huge red flag from me. The interest will be real, the rest will be bullshit.

Why take legal action? It would have been the best thing they had done. Take credit perhaps.

It can't be exploited by either team, only the officials on the pitch in conjunction with those in front of the screen can bring the use of VARS. Not sure what your point is really in regard to delaying the game, for the gain of whatever team that might be. Same reason players on the leading side will feign injury, to interrupt the flow and reduce the pressure. You've never seen a game where the losing side are hammering the oppositon, but then they have a long injury and the game just fizzles out? As for who can abuse it, I'm pretty sure those paying for the service will be able to do whatever they like. I’m pretty sure you don’t have a clue what VAR is

If anything, this will prevent big clubs getting decisions. The refs will have nowhere to hide when they are looking at a video of the incident.

I'm worried he's turning from captain fantastic into Stevie Fistpumps. There was a time we needed him to rally the troops but now it's becoming condescending and naive.

What annoyed me most about Given was that he was too quiet. He didn't have any sort of presence in goal. Incredible shot stopper at times though. Love Dubz.

I think he will sign a new contract. There seems to have been a tone change in recent weeks.

Shelvey dips in and out of form, which is fine because when on form he's virtually unplayable. When he comes back into the fold he will remind us what he can do.

Rondon must have won like 10 free kicks. He's going to be crucial for us.

I really shouldn't.

Them BT staff are going to need some help after today.

Honestly can't see anyway that they survived. Terrible stuff. I feel numb, despite knowing little about the owner.

A good point this. A good point.

From my viewing, that miss at the start could have been Muto or Perez but my brain did the calculation and worked out that it had to be Perez. It was sooooo Perez.

I'm glad I stopped feeling the pain along time ago.

I'm pleased the club's for sale but I'm disappointed that he won't be giving Rafa any money in January. At least that's what I'm assuming since everything he says is a lie.
