Owen's away soon thankfully, dunno who's replacing him though.

So, is anywhere other than Paully mentioning an injury to Taylor? Not saying he's wrong but these things tend to spread all over the internet

seems a bit weird aye, Im watching it on sky one as not got sky sports. Was expecting it on ITV1- but are they the same ownership? Sky One will be showing it to try to get people to subscribe to Sky Sports. ITV only have the Tuesday match, which was Arsenal vs Dortmund.

Think Norwich will sack Hughton if Cardiff peddle Malky. MacKay is a bit of a hero at Norwich so easy swap for Delia.

If we win on Sunday: "Fergie was right, the mackems are shite"

Watched parts of the match back and fast forwarded to the explosion - Kolo Toure nearly shits himself too if it's any consolation.

You can't argue with how Tiote responded to getting the armband yesterday, unfortunately most people want him out of the team/will be suspended too often anyway.

You've got to bear in mind he only had about 2-3 days with most of the squad he inherited due to the international break. They'll be miles better after a week I'd expect.

The in form team usually wins so for that reason we shouldn't have anything to worry about. But Mick, form goes out of the window in a derby, so how can this be!?

One of the cliches that will no doubt be recycled for this is that form goes out of the window in a derby, which is a grave shame if true.

Thanks chaps.

The days of managers staying in a job for decades are long gone. Wenger will be the last in the Premiership, it'll be a long time before anybody is in a job as long as he and nobody will even get close to Ferguson. Not even Pardew.

Has any team ever stayed up with 1 point after 8 games? I know Harry likes to paint it that Spurs were on minus 6 after 15 games when he took over but they had more than one point I think?

He was quite poor today by all accounts, but in terms of where he is now, his age and what he could become it's frightening

Don't forget the clocks go back before this one, I want none of this BST shit in the title.

That 2nd tackle had been Tiote he would have been booked, fact it was Gerrard and he was already on a yellow was why he got away with it. Gerrard's second challenge was exactly the same as his first, which merited a booking. Consistency wouldn't go a miss. Gerrard was applauded when he went over to take a corner first half, don't know how I feel about that to be honest. I know he's England captain but for fuck sake..

Could be quite clever as they have 3 centre halves and nobody out and out to mark

It's like a team of Shola's

Remember when Hoddle played Le Tissier at home to Italy? That went well.

Nigeria kick off in half an hour, holding out a ridiculous amount of hope for Shola being at a World Cup.

Depends what group they get, could be an Ivory Coast in 2006 scenario

He's been dropped by Villa so I doubt that will happen

Don't forget that one hilarious night at WHL when he had a goal wrongly disallowed for offside and the Jenas scored in the last minute to steal it for us

It makes sense to get rid of RVP...but he's got to start scoring eventually. And he's got a decent 3 game spell coming up...
