Need more strikers IMO

Doesn't work hard enough

He is a headless chicken no doubt but it annoys me when I watch Boro and he's the only one doing anything going forward and he's then the one who gets the most criticism

Horrible behaviour is like Sissoko's antics. Townsend was nowt like that. I'd take him back if the price is right. Obviously he's nowhere near Sissoko levels of unadulterated evil but he did do a bit of a Delph in the summer, claiming he was stopping after the relegation. It's true that his commitment on the pitch could never be questioned. You'd have Moussa back at this point

Not really considering how shit he's been

Senegal look strong on paper

There's obviously other issues at play but Coventry have fallen from 8th to dead last without him

Players that try to create things always get treated more harshly than those who run around the place like a dog and haven't created a chance in 5 years, or even those that are just completely anonymous

I think Krul will be back in the summer. Not sure Rafa rates Darlow all that highly and I think Krul is clearly the better keeper of the two

Not sure he'd come at the moment but McCarthy would be a good foil for Shelvey if we get back into the PL IMO

Would be good for team morale and camaraderie you would think. Almost all players with the same language and culture. It obviously does greatly limit how good you can become though

Do Burnley have any non British or Irish players? Edit: Defour is actually but he's the only one I can think of

That passage of play in the Sunderland game might be the worst bit of professional football I've ever seen. About 10 mistakes a second culminating in a hilarious finish

"He doesn't speak the best English but whatever he said seems to have worked on the players" the commentator says about a minute before Silva does an interview in near perfect English

We also got relegated mate

That Carroll goal looks better every time you see it

England really need to be looking at playing that 3-4-3 as so many England players are playing in it and doing well. Rooney can play Erikkssen's position in it for England. So both he and Alli behind Kane. Although ideally it should be Lallana with Alli really. Lots of options though. Rose and Walker are absolutely brilliant in those wing back positions. Cahill and Dier are used to playing in a back three now. Central midfiled would be Henderson and another. Would work really well IMO. Would be slightly tempted to move Alli back into the centre and have Sterling and Lallana behind Kane thinking about it, albeit Sterling's form fluctuates wildly Think Alli needs to be as high up the pitch as possible

Why would the Chinese market be relevant to buying young players? The Chinese teams are all about buying 'names'. Can't see any connection at all. Aye its high profile players that they're going for. They can only have 4 non Asian players so they won't be stocking up on midtable Premier League players

Jonathan Pearce just asking Harry Kane "Who's the Daddy?" is the creepiest thing I've ever seen

Basically everyone is saying we're going to get promoted though?

Gone on loan to Heerenveen. Only just turned 18 like so still plenty of time for him although I agree that its a bad move for young players to go there

Darlow seems to make a few errors leading to goals but his shot stopping is fantastic

He was pretty good when he was here and getting games, Rafa clearly knew how to get the best out of him, Pardew on the other hand It almost isn't fair to judge a player who plays under him nowadays. Good players still generally play well under Pardew when given a chance. Zaha, Ba, HBA, Cabaye when with us, all performed well under him. Townsend was good for us but I think he also benefited from playing against a lot of teams that were already safe and not playing for anything

That was the last one wasn't it?
