Both sides were 'very unhappy' with the leak according to Simon Bird's article. The Mirror have been s**** for news on us lately but Simon Bird is credible enough. Isn't he the one referred to as a "c***" by JFK? Aye. "Which one of you is Simon Bird?" "Me." "You're a cunt. There I've said it to your face." "Thank you."

Is there a chance Lascelles is back for this?

"Enjoy the game!"

I'm not saying you're wrong, but I'm not sure how that shows the quality of the league is low. Everyone taking points off each other suggests a competitive league. Whether they're all s**** or all good is another matter, really. We can compete in that group of teams, last night showed that as did our run prior to the Bournemouth defeat. We need everyone fit though, a few injuries to key players like we've had in this winless run and we're screwed.

8 would be ideal. 4 from the Leicester/Everton double header (6 would be fantastic), a point at West Ham and 3 from Brighton.

It must be found

Carver will be assistant. :lol:

Official.

McClean looked as comfortable at LB as Aarons did away at Chelsea under McClaren.

Likewise.

Will take a spirited performance where we don't embarrass ourselves like we did last time we were at Stamford Bridge.

You what? Steve Wraith said he felt sick and nauseous, takeover's off.

Probably the best thing thinking long term, right? Psychologically we don't want to be going into our toughest month of the season just 3 points clear of the relegation zone. Being 5 points just gives us an extra bit of leeway. We don't need Everton finding form before our game with them, fat Sam usually takes a little time to work his "magic", his Palace side lost 5-1 to the Mackems in one of his first games, last season but they will get some new manager bounce. A draw would be the best result in that game I think. Lost 0-4 to the mackems at home.

This upcoming month, Leicester (h), Everton (h), West Ham (a) and Brighton (h) should be circled in red as fixtures we need to be taking points from. Anything from the other games is a very welcome bonus.

Yep, some lovely touches between them hell we were even good to watch for the last 15 mins or so Aye, that period was all us and we were unlucky not to win in the end. When everyone is back fit, particularly Lascelles, we have a canny bottom half PL side that can play decent stuff at times. Mainly down to Rafa's ability as a manager that though.

Love the bloke, but been awful past few games. Hopefully he can put it right soon.

Made a positive impact when he came on. Direct, quick.

We won't go down.

Him and Merino together are our best midfield 2.

On Saturday the subs were pointless. Today they made a massive difference. The team at the end there; Aarons, Mitrovic, Shelvey and Merino together in the midfield had lush flow and we were unlucky not to win it. Good point given the circumstances. Get Lascelles back asap and we'll be canny.
