Yeah, let's hope someone who has been a mainstay in out winning run will be out for a long time... It´s more despite being in the team than because. He does nothing and would look as shit as he does now at any level where daily training is part of the regimen. Hope the injury is nothing serious, but the team will undeniably be better off with him unavailable.

Mackems for me. It's a low risk, high reward game for us. High risk, low reward for them.

Terrible thing to say. The lad's in hospital for fucks sake Would it be better if I added "Feel bad for the guy but....."? Obviously I don´t want him to be badly injured I do feel glad for the fact the we will not see him playing the next few games as he probably got a decent concussion out of that crash. Knowing my luck, he's probably ready to go when I am over to watch us play Cardiff. Fuck

The most important thing for me which shows he is a great character to have in the team.

At least something good came out of it.

Would like to see him rotated alongside Shelvey instead of Colback, with Perez playing off Gayle.

As long as we get to see Lazaar and Mitrovic I'm good.

I don´t think we should spend anything until the summer unless it´s for a player who can perform at a good level in the PL. No more Daryl Murphys or Grant Hanleys. Alan Judge is a 27 year old winger who has spent his entire career in the Championship.

Granted I only ready the first 3 pages, but most of them aren´t wrong. We have spent more money than anyone else in the league no matter how the balance sheet looked in the end. We also need to remember that nearly every relegated team makes profit on the transfer market due to selling the biggest stars who won´t stay on. The loss of TV money, ticket fees etc will not make us £30m in the black. I also agree that Rafas true test will come next season, as any average manager would be expected to reach promotion with our squad. I admire the way we have gotten to the top, but we are were we should be in the table, no matter who the manager is.

Poor mans Darren Bent

3 goals scored in the championship so far today

We´ll finish 1st regardless, but it would be nice if Benitez bought another central midfielder in January so we don´t have to watch Colback anymore.

Really?! Took us 10mins straight after the game FTR Diame was poor but unfairly criticised as I feel is too often the case these days. Namely down to the fact we have a retarded element of our fan base. The kid needs confidence, he doesn't hide and his overall game play is average at present. He is older than you, child.

He had best goals per minute at Palace the last two seasons, didn´t he?

long time ago Mitrovic started his career in Partizan FC,fans beleived he will become a legend,but early sign for Anderleht made him just marvelous youngster Very off topic, but got some mates going over to Belgrade this weekend. Think they're watching Red Star over the weekend, but not sure. Belgrade is horrible if you're not Serbian tbh. Got refused service so many times because I was Norwegian, heard the waiters walk away mumbling stuff about "Jens Stoltenberg" Surreal stay that was. Really!?

Why odd? They were brilliant that season.

I thought it was the other way around, that your body recovers faster at a young age and takes longer the older you get?

A phrase British pudits use all the time to describe someone like Pardew, Bruce, McLaren, Allardyce or Pulis. They may have an appalling win ratio or not actually achieved anything of note but they are PROPER FOOTBALL MEN. So ignore the terrible relegation form their teams are in or give them the England job. Based purely on PFM. Always thought it was Proper Football Manager. Proper Football Men is even funnier Cheers.

God bless

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck me. Colback in again. Waddafak Rafa, sort yourself out!
