They've taken 10 points from Villa, Brighton, Huddersfield, Norwich. Strong form. Think it will be a tough game. Interesting to see who comes in. So useful this season, our benches always seem pretty strong. Would take a narrow win all day long here. The quarters in sight

Very good start for the lad. I hope he can keep a consistent level. Looks like a defender who'll get 4-5 goals a season - always useful.

Hopefully if we go up, I expect Rafa to move Colback on. But people can be a bit harsh on him. He didn't have a good start to season, but been solid since then. Decent enough for this level. He doesn't start every game - him and Hayden will rotate. It's fine.

Whoa, didn't realise they were that bad The Hull and Swansea games are massive.

Agree with that. We'll lose some games, but does feel this season, we'll respond well to that, and go on a really good run.

My over 2.5 goals bet went terribly today

Said it here at the time, stunned they spent £13 million on Ndong. Needed attacking players and they did that. I just don't see who can score apart from Defoe or Van Aanholt, and they concede regularly too. Going to be really tough for them.

Professional job again. 7 clean sheets in league out of 14 games, scoring just over 2 goals a game on average, really clicking well at the moment. Keep it going. Some nice goals today, happy for Perez.

Since the horror start it's 10 wins out of 12 in league. Looking consistent, we have a strong squad for this league. Options all over. Very positive.

Rafa is classy guy, a complete professional - really feels as we have the opportunity to really build strongly with him. Loving the charity work he does, seems really accessible to all the bairns, proper family man.

Always liked Mick, he's alreet. Just let's keep going, keep it professional, get another 3 points.

I appreciate it's a lower division but it's so refreshing to have good away form. 5 wins in Mid October with 2 goals conceded. Class.

Could have spent that money elsewhere. £4m on a young player with his career ahead of him rather than this donkey. We paid less for Haydens didn't we? Would Anichebe or Bentenar on a free be a worse idea than dropping millions on Murphy? Donkey? FFS. We have proper back up in all positions, but people still moan. Weak.

Wow.

Bruce is a pretty decent manager for Championship team tbf. They've had such a bad start though. Tough job.

Swansea sacking is harsh. The Hull loss was poor but they've had a tough start to season (City, Liverpool, Chelsea, Southampton, Leicester).

I honestly thought they'd be doing a lot better. 1 win in 11 games in the Championship so far. Weak.

Last Saturday, you say 7 points from Villa, Norwich, Rotherham, I'd be happy with that.

We look decent wide, seem to create a lot of chances. 4-4-2 you would think would be perfect for us, we get loads of crosses in.

Don't like that team.

4-4-2 please. We are creating a decent amount of chances. Mitro and Gayle.

First name on the team sheet But seriously, really happy with his form. Much improved, and scored some important goals.

Holy shit, had an awful hangover this morning. Class game, one of the best game I've been to live for sheer entertainment. Thought we played fantastic first 35-40mins. Really should have been at least 3-0 up, created a lot of chances. Was stunned when they went 3-1 up - so undeserved Amazing comeback, atmosphere was class, a wonderful night.

So greedy from Fat Sam. So sneaky. I can take a little loose talk if he p*ssed, and doesn't go too far. But the chasing of £400,000 is such an error of judgement. Paid £3 Million a year FFS, so stupid from Fat Sam

The defending for that third goal was so bad like. So easy for Benteke.
