Colback's lazy sticking out his leg to try intercept the ball in the build up to their goal, rather than just running on to it, is funny.

Nah. As their measly 3 GD shows, they've got incredibly lucky to be where they are.

Preston and Norwich?

Honestly man, how can anyone be arsed to interview Jose. What a complete fucking arsehole

Defoe down in a heap for the mackems.

How many games in a row is that now? Absolutely nauseating. Even more so he's managed to not even fluke one good performance in that time.

He's much better than a few are trying to make out here like.

http://www.getreading.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/jaap-stam-issues-stark-message-12816205 He's likely still moaning about that 4-1 loss up here which they "Controlled"

On the way to league one then.

I see both sides of this argument, but do you really think the game nowadays is anywhere near "au naturale"? Something needs to be done to make the game more honest, perhaps this is the way... In terms of what happens on the pitch, bar goal-line technology & the odd use of extra officials, the game is still the same at every level. Re making the game more honest, I'm all for the retrospective execution of diving cheats etc Might be a little too far, that.

Likely to stay in europe for pre season. Good

Struggled for goals or even to look like scoring last 3.

Kirchoff is out of contract? That's hilarious considering how they were waxing lyrical about him at the start of the season

No way would I have taken Arca ahead of Bernard.

Dele Alli is latest one. Press rally to defend him when he really is that sort of player.

Always love that time Rooney kicked Coloccini in the leg and Ben Arfa sprinted 60 odd yards to tell him he's an idiot

He doesn't say anything that the conspiracy theorists will be able to twist.

Arca gets a lot of love for an average player that left them for the smoggies.

I think people vastly overestimate how likely they are to win games.

Even Waugh at the chronicle seems to think that they don't have to pay all of it if they sell him.

Should of just kept Guthrie. Or Abeid. Or any midfielder we've had in the last 10 years. Even Geremi could probably still play a better forward ball.

It's like Henri Saivet only has to not be physically inept to be better than Jack Colback.

No chance do they suddenly spike up to a 50% win ratio for the last 10.

He's so important for us. not just the fact that Colback is his replacement, he's a really good player.

Rafa's got it wrong plenty too.
