Terrible changes from both coaches too. Lingard sub was hideous and similarly taking Sturridge on instead of much more in-form Shaqiri makes little sense

I hear the commentator said that shaqiri has just recovered from injury so he can't play for long periods. That Lingard sub was just crazy.

Good. Now we need to get back to winning.. Seeing as Arsenal are also above us.

Yep and even if we win that.. March should be straightforward maybe.. Then again we've dropped points against 2 of the teams coming up already this season.

We missed another one.  

[Special Juan 27,103]

Leicester have got real potential in that team and I think Rodgers can get a real tune out of them.

Vardy still got it, Maddison is getting better all the time, I really rate Demarai Gray and Ricardo and Chilwell are really top players.

Oh dear.

Man City paid £200 000 to Sanchos agent when he was 14 years old. FA investigating. 

The irony. All these investigations by FIFA and the FA, two of the dodgiest sporting organisations out there.

Atm Tielemans also look a good addition , only needs to build some power

Fuckin this totally cracks me up.

Just shows the difference in expectations of us and the likes of the 2 north London clubs.

Can you imagine the meltdown on here - and the media , if Sarri or any other of our managers had come out with the same shit Poch has about them not being able to be contenders to win the league for 5-10 years!!! Roman would be throwing fits! He would have the manager out by the next day!!

It shows our different attitudes.

We have a winning mentality. Even if the players forget it now and then. We have these hissy fits because we are not living up to the standards we have set ourselves.

Spuds and gooners dont have that problem. They don't put that pressure on themselves.

Joe Cole is dead right when he said this How would you want to play for a manager that says this?

Dirty Leeds 2-0 up.

We'll have some tasty fixtures with them again next season at this rate...

Won't have to worry about Bamford though he is out of his depth in the PL.
