Say what you will about his performance but he understands the role infinitely more than Tioté, who is going to be little more than useless in this system. Hope he's ok.

Cech

Genuinely funny how anon Colback is.

Typical Cissé. Playing pure turboshite but still scores.

hoy Ayozé on for Obertan at HT pls.

Mbemba well dodge for the goal, like.

Yeah. Lets the full backs get super wide as well. Which is good as Sissoko's probably not going to provide natural width and Obertan is Obertan.

Reckon Anita's going to be good under McClaren. Actually playing in his proper position.

Ah, there's that player we should've signed so we don't have to play Gouffran/Obertan instead.

No relegation for us this year

Isn't Mexico the most obese country in the world?

This is the first game of football I've watched for 6 months. Cool story.

+1. It's just football at the end of the day. It's not worth potentially destroying something far more important.

5th!

Don't know whether to or

Can't believe people are suggesting he'll do well at Palace, man. He's fucking awful at pretty much everything to do with management.

I once hit a lass* with braces in at school. Worst thing I've ever done. The girls were pretty stupid standing behind the goals, like. But still; I felt awful. *With a football.

Abeid's fault.

Ah, cba. So boring and I just don't care .

Gonna score all the goals.

Definitely read that second half in Philomena Cunk's voice, like .

Yeah, but Marseille won't give him a new contract as they can't pay him what he wants. Sounds like he'll be asking for more than that. Especially from a club like ours who can offer just about nothing else.

£1.5m a year is £30k p/w. Doubt he'll join us for that, like. Especially when it's a free transfer and he can demand loads.

:lol:

Cabaye was good all round.
