That tackle by Kane should have been red.

more likely in the middle.

Probably not. His best season in England came with us 4 years ago, he could have built on that but instead chose to be on the bench for Chelsea. Has lost some pace and been injured alot. Not keen on having him here now.

There was an article about this a few days ago. If I remember correctly we have tried to get him to stay but it isn't up to us even though he has a year left on his contract. He is free to leave and sign for Everton. 6m for a player that has never played a game for the senior team seems high to me. He must be a hell of a prospect! http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/lewis-gibson-newcastle-united-everton-13337473

RIP! My heart goes out to his family.

If they sell him now they don't have to pay us the rest of the payments #spurslogic

Sunderland are in for a though season. Many of their fans think they are going to walk it without sweating. There top arguments are: - They won the league after their 15 points relegation in 2006 - Championship is piss poor, their u23 team would do well there - Newcastle won it and they are shit IMO Sunderland are not totally doomed, but they need to get the shit together fast. They need to get rid of high earners, which will be difficult for them. They need someone to provide them with goals, Borini and Anichebe will not be enough. They haven't scored much this season (28 goals) and more than half (15) came from Defoe who is leaving. They will need 2 strikers which will cost them around 25m. They will not generate much through sales and wages will be high, so the owner needs to provide extra funds for squad investment. But all of this will be pointless if Moyes can't get the team harmony right. Sunderland will also have a lot of competition. Hull will finish above them in the Premier league and didn't invest heavily after being promoted last year so they should be lean financially and much better equipped to invest for promotion run. Hull also have less of a cleanup job to do. Middlesboro is almost the same as Hull and are good candidate for promotion push. I expect Villa also to be in playoffs/promotion contention. Leeds will get stronger if they keep Monk and invest a bit. Leeds have a strong income for a Championship club. Fulham, Reading and Sheffield Wednesday (one will be promoted) will be in top 6. But I'm not expecting Huddersfield to push so high again, seem to have lost their form in the end of this season. I have no faith in Derby, they have a strong squad but always managed to fuck it up. But they might make the playoffs. There is much work to do for Moyes. Get the team mentality right, get the owner to commit money. After that he still has 46 games to get through.

Last year Hull was promoted but still had the worst form over 10 games over the 4 playoff contenders. Granted the form was very similar for all teams and when looking at the last 6 games Hull was acctually the best. 2015 Norwich had the best form and was promoted through the playoffs. So recent league form seems to be a indicator of how teams will do in the playoffs and judging by the last 6 games Fulham are the strongest.

Half a point would be more accurate projection of GD-to-points (so we got 77.5 points now).

Ashley never fully trusted Pardew if judging by the power Rafa has. After his Palace "full control" adventure it seems he was right. You never know with Ashley though...

Over the bar from 12 yards

I hope not!

Pardew putting his emphasis on the stadium atmosphere

Sheff Wed won, they were good on the counter.

Clark!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I even started to when I was YT scouting Mbemba Dennis? Is that you???

The journo of the Evening standard article is asked to clarify what he meant with this his confusing sentence about the 5 installments: So Spurs can't sell him in January and get away with only paying the first installment, which would be stupid.

The wifi at the airport is down at the moment so he can't tweet....

They do have an app where you can listen. Just search on Google app store or iphone app..

Was going to make one change, but I guess not

Don't really understand why he is so hated on here.

Still proud of my countrymen!!!

They are not worried. The new owner is injecting immense optimism into the Villa fan base.
