I just don’t see us winning 7 games in a row, it just never happens. Happily take a draw and then go on another 5 game winning run

I’m actually favouring a draw against Villa just to break the winning run. Sounds strange I know, but I’d rather reset the run so that Spurs at home starts a new winning run of games

I’m sure we’ll argue our case as much as we can. I think the ruling was really only been brought in to stop the type of thing that happened at Man City where Etihad game them hundreds of millions for naming rights to the shirt and stadium. This was at the time when they were just getting started and was clearly an insane sum.

Pretty sure it’s only related third party sponsorships that the rule applies. So I’d think the Noon sleeve sponsor would have been looked at and approved because PIF have some equity in the company

I think I said early on in his time here, that he’s the best player I’ve ever seen play for us. He’s so composed on the ball, calms everything down and just oozes class, it’s like he’s playing the game in slow motion. We’re so lucky to have him

We still have the harder games left to play so I’m not getting too carried away right now. The away games against Chelsea, Everton, Leeds and Villa are big match stadia and rivalries which we could easily struggle for win in any of them. I don’t think that will happen because we’re a top team now and will find a way to get something, but it’s going to be tight. Overall we deserve to finish in the top 4 and even top 3 because we have been the third best team in the league for sure

Brentford really are just a modern day Bolton Wanderers

I’m forever comparing about the Longstaff kick in the face and now the Schar one last weekend. We really need to revisit how VAR is used for situations like today’s penalty. Entirely subjective decisions cannot be overruled unless there’s a consensus. It’s farcical that one guy in a video booth can look at something 10 times and still can’t give a clear decision

I have a feeling he’s the one we want, a lot of rumours say so (I know!), but the buy out clause seems like the type of business we will look at

Both Man Utd and Everton aren’t great are they

I appreciate what Sean gives to the team, but I think he needs to be replaced with a similar type of player (high energy and box-to-box) that offers more technical ability. Maybe that’s the side Bruno moves to (on paper) and then we actually target a more defensively minded player (like an Urgarte)

I still think we are at least 5 - 9 points down on what our play has warranted this year. Some of those draws, especially a few of the 0-0s deserved a win

I really don’t think we will be after a traditional wide attacking player this summer unless a long term target becomes available (like a Diaby). We just spent a lot of money on Gordon and there will be other areas to strengthen that require more focus first. We also already have four players to fit in those positions. Obviously you want more quality there, but Murphy has actually played really well and follows the gameplay excellently and ASM has shown the quality he brings in recent weeks. I think we go after a central striker that can play out wide if need be (like an Joao Pedro) and then a Maddison type midfielder that can operate from the right or left.

Do they mention what is deemed as an acceptable transfer fee?

He wasn’t booked so no yellow card suspension

True, but I still think even with relegation that he commands a huge fee and one that we couldn’t ‘afford’ to pay right now. Well unless it’s around the £60m mark which I actually think is a fair price, but every top team would be in for him at that price

He’s my number one target for midfield, but there’s no way he is sold for less than £100m unless he asks to leave

Yeah, he plays for Bayern Munich

We really should have at least another two goals by now. I’m hoping these substitutions don’t swing the game around

Love it when players square the ball for an open goal

We’ve been around their box in dangerous areas so many times and just lacking the composure. They look really dangerous when they go direct with the power and pace in their side. The set pieces are also an issue because the goal they scored was so bad defensively

If we actually get the ball down and pass it, we look very dangerous

Wilson looks so much fitter than before the international break

If we can get a more attacking left back, we’d be such a force down both wings

Let’s get some more goals here
