They won't beat City.

They won't beat City.

Then too bad for us because we need them to.

Though I'd prefer a draw in their match.

[Special Juan 27,439]

Liverpool are great going forward, they are average in midfield and at the back, it's just teams are frightened of them for some reason.

Martinez and Rodgers are easily the managers of the season.

I remember early in the season people were trying to say Suarez was an overrated player because he only scored goals against small teams...

The funny thing is, if we had a striker to score 4 goals against teams like Crystal Palace, Aston Villa, West Bronwich or West Ham, at this point of the season there would be little doubt about who would win the trophy.

Pulis too.

Chris Hughton has been sacked by Norwich.

Can't say it hasn't been coming and their run-in is horrendous(!) - Fulham(A), Liverpool(H), Man Utd(A), Chelsea(A) and Arsenal(H).

[Henrique 9,133]

Pulis too.

I think Pochettino is doing better,

[kellzfresh 7,229]

I think Pochettino is doing better,

I don't think so. Pulis has turned the worst defence in the league into a top 5 defence. And is picking up points constantly

Too little too late.

Even with the new-manager syndrome, it's very difficult to even win 1 of those last 4 games.

Think they can avoid relegation if they beat Fulham next week because Fulham themselves also have tough games away at Spurs and Stoke. Lose that, however, then it could all go horribly wrong..

[didierforever 7,349]

pochettino is doing good, but he has the quality of players to play game which has made soton so successful. the fact that the top 6/7 want players like lallana and shaw is proof of the talents in the soton squad.

pulis on the other hand, got the weakest squad in PL by a mile. moreover pulis came in when palace had 7 points in the first 12 games. no one would have given palace any chance of survivaly, yet i feel pulis has truly pulled off a miracle here.

Hmmm wonder how many pens they'll.get.next week.a few against us no doubt to

No idea who it could be (or if indeed it is true) but the info originates from a website for radicalists in Syria. Probably someone who was in their youth ranks or something.

Reading through other forums and came across this:

Luis Boa Morte is a terrorist
