Is the one most likely to score, the right answer? Or the one most likely to work hardest? Or, to most precisely comply with his tactical brief?

No. 13, I think the news first leaked out with 13hours to deadline.... it’s a sign, it’s a sign!!!

3-0 and 3-2 vs West Ham; 1-0 and 2-1 vs Palace, second London double coming-up.

I suspect the point AlexJack is making is that however much you monitor particular training stats, the ability to influence a match is more than the sum of any data you can measure. Obviously, a player needs to be fit enough to contribute but beyond that it is easy to drift into scientism/believing the numbers tell you something they really don’t.

This will be perfect to have on for my 230 mile drive this evening. Enjoy it’s a good listen.

Really does seem miraculous. Fair play to Mo! Must have taken a lot of hard work.

I can see how it could be tough to take. Second time he has basically begged to go. Yet he isn’t free to move. There are times, it seems, when contracts are worth the paper they are written on.

He’s a wrong ‘un, I can feel it in my water. Conte managed to get Costa (another wrong ‘un) out, but the less obvious, snidier, more deadly evil twin is still there! Spot the difference Belgian and Brazilian Psychos; a couple of whom who are good at football.

The Premier League Fantasy League game rates the difficulty of forthcoming fixtures (1-5 easiest to hardest). Just adding up the total for the remaining games gives a rough way of gauging who has the hardest final 13 games. Of the teams who could get relegated here are the easiest to hardest run-ins: Swansea & Bournemouth (35); Palace (36); Stoke, Huddersfield, West Brom (37); Southampton, West Ham, Watford (38); Newcastle (39); Brighton (41).

Same. I also don’t trust some of the players, Hazard in particular as in he seems a psychopathic self-centred little scroat. His form picked-up in good time for the transfer window, but suspect he is undermining of the manager as I suspect he has been in the past with Mourinho. It was very very odd to see a team of their quality finish 10th. I would go as far as to say they would have to be trying hard to fail in order to do that. And feels a little bit like here we go again. A Chelsea work to rule, to shift the manager or because they just fancy it.

Yep. Some scraps coming your way Ayoze! For a change. I wonder how many of his goals he has had to make himself? Versus many were knockdowns or laid back to him? If he is a second striker (odd that I still feel the need to use an ‘if’) surely a fair proportion of his goals should be from balls which just fall to him to hit.

“Bat ee’s A big norverner mate. Like Andy Carroll, yeah? They’re all the same, yeah? £20m profit, right there bish-bosh. An’ he ain’t African, sweeeeet!” Tom Downie (West Ham, aficionado)

Unbelievable Jeff! That should have ended his refereeing career. Self-centred, argumentative, spoiling for a fight, he should switch careers into French politics.

No news is probably bad news in this scenario. Let’s hope the potential bad press and fan discontent is seen as important enough to prevent your friend and mine chucking the dummy. Cf. “You guys don't understand how f****** horrible we can be.”

Shameless. Like Adam Johnson goal celebration on a larger, and equally psychopathic, scale.

I said the same, well actually I said “ here we go!” But I meant the same. .co.uk have a replay of the ‘corner’ in the match highlights.

Just watched the extended highlights. Shit ball by Murphy but Joselu really just needed to put his foot through it. All this tippy-tappy placement stuff is too difficult when your confidence is low: don’t think, just wellie! Oh, and the corner they scored from, definitely should have been a goal kick.

Just watched his interview on .cock. I like him. There’s a quiet self-assurance about him. He’s going to take his chances.

I’m getting my next season’s order in now: Marcos Llorente with Merino in the middle (M&M, nice). Hayden as cover/tactical option. Luan in front of them, joined on the left by Kenedy and Murphy on the right. We’ll keep Slim shady, if he looks canny, if not then Bas Dost will be worth a punt. Suddenly realised I can’t be arsed to imagine a defence. Anyway, young high energy attacking midfield. It’s the future!

The story whiffs a bit (BS alert) but how good might that have been! Kenedy and Luan linking up for us. Maybe one day.

He just needs to do his thing. Really wish they’d introduced him to the crowd. The adoration/welcome he would have got may have been addictive/set him on the right track.

Love that song. Love KK too. I hope, in the occasional quiet moment, he is fully aware of what he gave us.

Mitro looks knackered! Full on day of flying around and uncertainty followed by a training session has done the lad in.
