That's New Castle. The mere fact that Chelsea are interested in a player makes him worth at least £7m.....unfortunately.

Yeah read that once. I remember 'Arry mentioning him once too.

The more you watch it, the more amazing it gets.

I don't care who starts, this is a must win game. We can't let spuds gain any more ground on us.

That's a very good point. Him leaving Juve in Jan is a given, if we don't get him, I have a feeling he'll end up at Arsenal or Tottenham.

Ekotto couldn't have moved his hand either, the ball bounced right in front of him. That was never a pen. Not that I didn't think we deserved to win it.

I like to watch and follow the Italian Serie A and it is much more fun and interesting to support a team in the league. If they meet in the CL I wouldn't mind what the result is. I also support Bayern Munich for that matter.

Easy there, tiger . Let's not jinx it.

I'm not complaining, I'm learning new words I can show off to my English teacher!

I like this guy, but he NEEDS to work on his finishing FFS.

Not unless we get a striker. If we have to start Lukaku against Napoli I'll cry.

Actually I don't like Kroos ! But I agree, with a bit more pace, he'd be a much more effective player.

Then maybe the EUFA should enforce a salary cap for all the players in Europe. I do think this has reached a ridiculous stage.

Someone just learned a new vocab word.

A Rooney in shit form still offers a lot to his team like creating and assisting, using his pace on the wings, and helping the defense. Whilst playing an off-form Torres is like playing with 10 men.

I certainly hope not. Those three can hardly have any influence on our season.

That's a bit harsh. He is no slower than Lampard tbh. Besides, I don't know a single player with better shooting technique than Kroos, not that he'd ever leave Bayern.

The Ivanovic one is a real blow, especially now, I hope he is fit for monday. About Mikel, why was he even selected over Romeu?

I am content. Of course there are some "what if"s as there always is, but this is where I expected us to be by now. Can't hope for anything more with our current squad.

Off topic: Who got injured yesterday?

Thanks guys. A little surprised to hear that we defended resolutely throughout the game, we haven't been able to do that in most games this season.

I had to miss the game yesterday. I am satisfied by the result because it was very important not to lose. Can anyone please tell me who was the better team?

I'd still support him too even if he was dumb enough to say that.

I hope he takes this chance, he running out of straws.

He's had enough loan moves, he needs to have the chance he deserves with the first team.
