For a purely unbiased take on things, the Reds should definitely get Knoxy this time.

Gazzetta are 50 shades of wrong with that team. So wrong it hurts a little.

It comes from me playing Devil's Advocate. It'd certainly be interesting to see what happens if he were to get injured for a few games. His current form is phenomenal but you're a totally different side without him. i.e. he is without doubt the sole difference between you having a serious tilt at the title, and pushing for top 4. Basically he's a wanker who needs to stop scoring.

Flip it round - 2 points above 5th and are completely reliant on one man. 1-2 is fair. http://api.ning.com/files/sqEmYzaj13oLVs6lINmY52w1BSyrS8OUXioLrDTpQTHbbg81OElAgz2MD0vlmCtKtnT9xPGoHxX*-50qr8FECJnRTDSdSD2e/devils_advocate.jpg

Pretty sure cp would genuinely twat some of them if that ever happened.

Emo irony. Emony.

Cos we're fucking mint. Recent Man City hate is because we've beaten them countless times in recent years. They don't like that.

He's been LuCACKu recently. Fuck off, it's Christmas.

About £100 up last night from the b365 offer. No malo.

Thatll dee nicely.

Somewhat neglecting the safety net aspect of the bet365 offer by putting my pre-match bet on the draw.

much christ happy yes jingle mung/10mas

Agreed.

I've got plenty wrong on this game over the years, but I said numerous times back in August about how Coleman was an absolute snip. He still is. moar 25 yarders pls.

I want blood against this lot on Thursday. I want to see Poyet crying as Bobby M kicks him in the nads after our 5th. .....1-0 would do nicely, though.

Oh I know. I can see why people would be annoyed.

He's actually been pretty poor for 4 or 5 games now IMO.

66 + whatever bonus points Coleman and Barkley. Ramsey to play tomorrow.

Looking forward to our title decider, George. I'll be honest, I'm giddy. I don't expect us to finish top 4 but do I think currently we should be looking to keep pace? Absolutely.

This is a great season tbh. I can't remember there were so many teams who were so evenly balanced relatively. Usually you have 1 or 2 who are clearly way better than 2 or 3 others who are miles ahead of the rest, and so on. This year there are loads competing quite equally for a number of spaces. I think the only team who you'd fully expect not to slip outside the top 4 are Man City. The rest, to varying degrees, are not guaranteed top 4 at all IMO.

Shame their fans all hate us for no apparent reason. And plenty vice versa. Why can't we all love each other?

Just about deserved that. 1st half was terrible from all concerned, 2nd half I think we were better for longer periods than Swansea. Wins like that get you places. I thought after Barkley fell over when 1 on 1 and a series of wrong decisions by various players, it might be one of those days. Kept going and 2 pieces of quality from 2 quality young players got us the win. Terrible defending for their goal mind. 2 points off the top. Lerl.

Disappointing? It's been fucking abysmal.

Lukaku has had an absolute stinker.
