I really don't care much about what happens Tuesday. Next weekend is where it's all at. We are at west Brom and the rags have the spuds. A game they could well loose. So I want wholesale changes on Tuesday and the first team well rested to give pulis a good spanking. And hopefully 8 clear of the rags.

Crystal balls my man


Really? I caught the last 20 minutes and Sanè was constantly giving the ball away. He took his goal well after a fantastic ball from Kev. But it worries me he's constantly giving the ball away and running in to two defenders losing the ball.


He got an assist and a goal. As for the running into 2 defenders that's cos he had 2 men on him all game. He's young, he's raw and I probably wouldn't have picked him today but the boy's got talent


To add to that he will have learnt from today and also the Napoli game

Exactly, next weekend is pivotal and having just watched brom against saints there is nothing to fear there.

Saints goal was sensational, def a goal of the season contender.

I don't want wholesale changes for midweek as this is a cup we can easily win, may 4 changes max with good use of the bench when needed

It will be a 3-5-2 with Zinchenko as left wingback.

Well I guess we just interpreted his comments very differently. I though he was quite gracious in defeat, saying how great a team we are, how the difference in money doesn't matter, and how everything had to go perfectly for them to get a result.

Got back to Somerset 30 minutes ago. Got soaked to the skin, almost dry now. Fantastic day.

Sat next to Shaun Ryder's twin brother. He kept hugging me when we scored. We sang lots.

He did say all that but it was a clear pen and he accused Silva of cheating. The rest is just froth for me.

When I saw the forecast I thought I'd better take an umbrella and a waterproof coat.

Then I realised that the only umbrella I had was red, and my only suitable coat was also red. Some things are worth getting wet for.

But you can't escape the fact that you own both a red umbrella and a red coat. Is your subconscious trying to tell you something? Is your washing machine made by AIG?

Well it was a free umbrella given to me by an estate agent but there are no excuses for having a red coat. I'll bin the thing.

Hate to bring it up but 5 mins to go winning three nil and playing the best footy ever and the stadium was emptying out like a fucking fire drill.

I'm not a ST holder so cant really preach, but I can't understand why so many wanna leave before the full time whistle when we are playing this well.

Noticed the same thing in the Spurs game yesterday.

It's a strange one, I rarely go nowadays so I'm not going to preach either but I always stay to the end to show my appreciation when I do go.
