Yeah, Rafa knows something

Calvert-Lewin & Coutinho for Vardy & Ramsey. But already know Morata isn't playing and I bet Sterling gets a rest :lol:

Won't celebrate until Fenham Mag confirms

West Ham and Palace both have fewer points than us. Point being, they can both raise their game and I'm not sure we can.

Even a good Championship squad would get more than 1pt from these last 7. And you see Huddersfield, West Ham, Palace etc claim some scalps this season, whereas when we take a lead we can't even park the bus and hold on for 20 minutes. We collapse against the big teams and lost 1-0 to the poor sides.

PSG v Real Madrid...... fuck.

Another loss, duh.

And then Southampton score. This guy is a curse. Otamendi finally delivers. Was basically just him, Foster and Morata © for me this weekend. 51pts. I benched him this time

Has to be 4-3-3 really. We have no decent #10 types, 3 decent mids and 2 pacy wingers. Shelvey takes the set pieces, bench Ritchie for a bit.

Merino and Atsu, then maybe Lascelles, who isn't amazing but we seem to fall apart without him.

The only encouraging thing from yesterday is that we scored twice from open play (corner had been cleared a bit for the 2nd). We suddenly know how to score goals again, whereas before we were a good defensive team. It's a complete change.

Top work, Rafa

Everything - absolutely everything - hinges on this.

Freefall. 9

Close to an impressive draw, unfortunately.

Oh boy, this is bad.

Alonso is genuinely a hideous man

Rafa seemed (saag) aloof in his press conference.

Never has a naan bread gave so much hope.

He already is. Wolfsburg. Whoops. Carry on....

Sturridge, Ings, Origi - I'm sure Liverpool will let one of them go out on loan. Probably Origi.

These armbar brothers sound mint.

Can't wait for the merged friendship badge and 50-50 scarves. 'El Friendly Cuppo'

If Ashley's willing to accept £300m, there's hope. Because that's a sensible offer. And as long as it's done by mid-January, there's time to get at least 2 good players in. I'm convincing myself that it'll fall apart though.

If £250m is the most they're willing to bid, they're stupid. Hopefully it's rubbish, although it's normally safe to assume the bad news are true at this club.
