Ooo, I'd have it off with her.

I wouldn't drop him either, he was horrible today like but our problem was our inability to break Italy down. Lallana and Barkley were just as ineffective. Sterling had his moments as did Welbeck and Sturridge. I'd just stick him in AM, for the next match, with the remit of being more of a second striker rather than a creator. We've got good ability in midfield so will still create.

He is terrible at moment. we need Barkley, Sterling etc No, we need to empower one of the best goalscorers in the squad.

Really wouldn't drop Rooney, like. We need more goalscoring instinct through the middle and Sturridge & Rooney offer that better than anyone else in the squad, by a country mile. There's plenty of creativity, elsewhere, we just need to get the balance right.

Too soft in the middle, needed a more savvy defending midfielder there to cover space left open. Promising but we need some work. Let's just play people in their right positions and aim for balance.

Interesting performance. Good side but we need tweaking, like, we'll need to find a more solid central midfield pairing against stronger opposition as we really missed disciplined cover. Perhaps Jones could fill that role. Rooney out wide is pointless, it's middle or nothing. Roy's going to have to try and boost his confidence, he's too fragile.

We're scum. Sub-human scum.

West Ham did offer him 50k but he turned it down because his wife didn't want to move.

In fairness football should have never got itself to the state where it's purely a loss-making business = football out. However it is the reality. What I don't understand is that if Cabella is this talented, surely £12m is still a snip? - If he sells for £20m+ it's still all profit, why miss out on someone of his quality we can have today if we simply spend what is fair amount for a quality talent. Because the people in charge are fucking stupid. They care about potential when it can be bought for the cheapest of prices, they don't want the risk of a real investment. If Cabella flops then that's money gone, it's a pessimistic view but one naturally synonymous with penny-pinching dickheads.

Reus Had an absolutely storming second half of the season too, fancied him to really carry on that form into the tournament. Such a brilliant player.

Going back to France is probably the worst move he could make, IMO.

He's signed, don't know when it'll be announced.

Words can't describe how angry this makes me. It's not so much MYM, although I rate him very highly, it's just what such a decision would symbolise. Fucking Steven Taylor staying because he makes Pards 'larf', makes me sick to my stomach. How much longer do they think Colo's going to last, man? I wonder how many games MYM actually played at CB in 13/14, about 7?

Just pay some fucking money, you utter dicks.

This saga is the worst of them all The club is so short-sighted, they're a bunch of utter cretinous amateurs.

Pardew even said he 'couldn't look Mapou in the eye' because he'd played so well last time he had a run at centre half. Honestly, how fucking stupid can you be, man.

This situation angers me far, far more than the Ben Arfa one, for some reason. Absolutely staggering incompetence on show.

Nobody going to mention the horrific shirt? That shirt is horrific.

This ref's gone tonight. Costa and Simeone, take your pick.

Simeone, man. What a div.

Deserved for Marcelo, he's been absolutely immense since he came on.

Great header, that.

Bale's head's gone, like.

He's supposed to be relatively cheap wages too, 15,000 a week, I believe.

Would have him any day over Ba, like. Can fit into any team in the division, can play all across the frontline to good effect, can adapt himself to different team styles etc. Tremendous player who probably should have had a better career.
