I'd only be annoyed if we lost him due to the potential he has. He showed at the back end of last season how he can thrive with others around him who suit his play, but this season there's been too much pressure on him and he hasn't handled it well. He's been average for a long time and if we...

Penalty. surely a red card too....

He achknowledged it. Well, said it was about 2 seconds. He had a jibe at the fans which is something your own manager has had an issue with after the home game against QPR saying it was like playing in an empty stadium. It's no big deal, just a bit of banter back to your fans who can't seem to...

Chelsea fans have been taunting Gerrard for years now. Presumably because he didn't end up joining you. You make it sound like it was only a handful who were chanting at him at Stamford Bridge which we both know it incorrect. If you want, just look at it as banter from the fans, and then...

Agreed, Loftus-Cheek.

So much so that Coutinho got man of the match? Nice logic.

4th was always a long shot after the West Brom and Hull games. A draw away at Chelsea is a good result despite it being irrelevant now and I thought we were the better team, but it's clear to see that better attacking options need to be brought in next season and Sturridge's absence for the...

Because he's been injured. West Brom are so deep and we're not doing anything going forward. No creativity or spark from the team. I'm gonna stick £10 on this to end 0-0.

The thread opened with just signing. I thought I was being clever. Sanchez or Fabregas then. Not in terms of value for money, but they've been the best players new into the league.

Yeah maybe things would've been different and Given maybe would've made more of an effort. Gotta take as much for Balotelli though as he's rather shite.

Not sure if it counts, but Harry Kane signing a new contract. Scuffed rumours about him going to one of the giants, and now even if he does, they'll make tons of money out of him.

Agreed we were useless, but that was down to Villa's football being better than ours and pressurising us. Something should've changed though to counter against that as we've got the players to do so, but there was clearly no plan B. Wrong decision for the Balotelli goal, but no complaints about...

Koeman. As most have said, Southampton were tipped for relegation and even someone as money tight as me stuck £5 on them to get relegated just before Pochettino left and thought the odds were amazing at 25/1, a few weeks after just before the season began they were 7/1. Koeman didn't have time...

I think McClaren is building something at Derby. I'm not so sure he'd want to leave a team who've looked to get a solid foundation going forward, especially if they get promoted, to a sinking ship unless they offered him a lot more money... But lots of money and Mike Ashley don't go hand in hand.

Who would be a likely replacement? Are Newcastle still a club that can attract a big name? I think with the players they've got their league position is about right. Other than Sissoko, I can't think of anyone who is anything but average. They might get someone like Dyche if he doesn't stay at...

It's a total contrast to the beginning of the season when we were about as boring as waiting for traffic lights to green when stuck in a traffic jam. I'm just hoping that teams won't wise up to our new successful formation.

No. I was just stating an observation. Both are ones which if they don't go for you then you feel a bit annoyed but if they go against you then you feel hard done by. Cahill's was more of an obvious penalty claim then Kightly's though.

I've got no sympathy for Chelsea's claims. It was probably a red card for Barnes although I can see why retrospective action hasn't been taken as he took the ball, and I can why Matic got a red too, but I don't see how Maureen can moan about this in the way that he has when it does tend to even...

Yeah everyone's been there. Most players usually get a good reception when coming back to Anfield but Torres and Owen didn't. It's all circumstantial. Lallana and Lovren's got booed, but the Soton fans still hold Lambert in high regards.

Questionable line up from us going forward, it was always going to be hard/emotional for Lallana which maybe had an affect on his game. Sterling up through the middle with Sturridge and an in form Balotelli on the bench. We got extremely lucky with the Allen challenge. The other two it's harsh...
