Sounds decent for them this, a close connection with Marseille is a potentially fruitful added bonus too. Sure they'll find some way to fuck it up mind

Merry Christmas all. Particularly appreciative of this place after a year spent mainly indoors alone looking at a screen, N-O tab has remained ever-open and been a big help at times.

Jesus. I was reading a blog post by Benitez this morning, a reflection on 2020 during which he discussed in length how he and his team are adapting to coaching in China and tackling the various new challenges presented to them. It was a really good read by a man who is as passionate as he is knowledgable about the game. We had that, now we have "let's roll wa sleeves up"...

The Leeds battering and the clueless dross against Fulham & these tonight is a spectacularly bad run of performances even by our standards.

Great goal that. Quality player.

Yeah, was just thinking he's the exact type of player we're missing.

Although he hasn't contributed too much so far this match, I feel like Pulisic doesn't get the plaudits he deserves. He's such a talent and still just 22; he has it in him to match or even surpass the levels Hazard achieved imo.

As much as the apathy has set in, I'd still quite like to win this one. Brentford yet to lose since October - we'll sit off and treat them like Chelsea no doubt.

Kimpembe has Paul Dummett posters on his wall.

But why should he have to do it for a solid 90 minutes I know I know, it was a failed mocking remark. For the record I can't imagine anything more soul destroying than working your whole life ambitiously learning, developing and honing a skill just to wind up working under someone like Bruce whose approach appears to be 'see what happens', 'all the best'.

Mine was 2 days ago and the answer is no. Although I've become quite the fan of such a low key birthday. Never really enjoyed the fuss. Happy birthday. Thank you

Surely just because he's not that cultured on the ball doesn't mean he can't have a say in the terrible football being played in front and alongside him? You're absolutely right, I just find the scenario funny. Imagining ASM complaining about not being able to play his game, get on the ball, take players on and Lascelles is standing in the background interjecting like "yeah same".

Why would Lascelles approach Bruce and say that our football doesn't suit his style of play? Dudes role is to be a human brick wall.

If my lip reading is accurate, I'm pretty sure Clemence when instructing Hayden pitch side just said "I haven't got a clue". Genuinely.

They are just as shit as what we have. They can all run so they're instantly better than any of our offerings.

Dummett? Has he even been training? Haven't heard his name mentioned in contention for ages.

Think Matty will be involved. Would like to see him start alongside Shelvey if Hayden's rested.

That Henderson goal was just like Shelvey's v City to make it 2-2.

Was going to say Berbatov but since it's been said, I'll go with Bergkamp or Arshavin.

Longstaff looks a wretched footballer these days. Such a shame.

Perhaps he has the virus and wants to keep it private hence no mention of him?

Murphy and Fraser linking up looks our best bet to create chances for Wilson here.

I'm guessing something like Krafth-----Fernandez---Clark-----Lewis Fraser---Hayden---Longstaff---Almiron -----------Wilson---Joelinton------------
