Wonder if this place will ever get used to the pragmatic style of play Rafa employs.

Rumour is fanciful at best but given our current squad he'd be the best player we have.

This lad is a class act, hope he gets plenty of starts next season

He's a good player without question I think his lack of mobility could be his biggest hinderance particularly in Rafa's set up.

Dave just can't resist it

More likely to be some Far East gambling website than Huawei I think.

Chelsea are so well balanced.

I'm baffled by the use of this, they offer no protection to the defence, play one anchor man and have that be his sole job. Free up the other, drop the 10 back a bit and dominate the midfield with a proper two CM's. With your fullbacks pushing on. This for me would be better, not that real football is a computer game. http://i.imgur.com/CZBKUcQ.png Football manager

I would say after a win given the way we have played for 85% of the season is massively subjective and blinkered. After a loss reality and object opinion generally prevails. We could quite easily be sitting on 70 points this morning had we not rode our luck last week. You're a WUM welcome to the ignore list.

This place after a loss is such a cesspit man.

Neymar wanted to go full Robert and throw his shorts in the crowd

VI getting very drunk tonight me thinks.

Magnier, McManus and Joe Lewis all have a stake in the parent company and all 3 of these guys have invested in football previously.

Monaco 3-0 they are so lethal if given space.

Agreed. Lucas Leiva is out of contract this summer, wouldn't surprise me to see Rafa in for him. Premier league experience and depth in an area of a pitch we are lacking. This could be a good shout

Ashley Williams is fair enough but the other two are mid table to relegation cloggers. Will never understand the fascination for Shawcross on here, he's a bang average journeyman who has never left Stoke for a reason. We'll never progress beyond 10th ( that's if we get lucky) and more likely spend the entire time between 13th and 17th signing players like that. Luckily Rafa knows better. I'm not a huge fan but calling Shawcross a journey is just wrong. No nonsense centre half with a wealth of premier league experience is more fitting.

Team spirit is immense, well done to the boys for never giving up and running yourselves in to the ground.

Imagine our lot showing this amount of character and determination under the previous incumbent. We are so lucky to have a genuine world class manager.

Good defensively but he really needs to work on his distribution gives the ball away far too much.

for the first time in what feels like forever we have a manager we can get behind no matter.

Justice.

Maybe he doesn't think Mitro or Murphy will get much out of Dunk and Duffy?

Let's be honest you will complain no matter who he picks.

What are Shelvey and Colback doing? Show for the ball!
