Watson has done OK for himself at Charlton Our very own favourite Aluko is well liked amongst the Ipswich staff and supporters (although more so in a coaching and mentoring capacity rather than on the pitch) Morrison has maintained a decent level for the stage of his career that he’s at Not sure how...

Can't see Jon Dahl Tomasson having much time left, Blackburn are on a run of 1 win in 11 league games and just 2 draws from the last 8. Strangely followed a very similar pattern under Paunovic here actually Situated in the playoffs for the majority of the first season until a collapse at the end sa...

Rino has joined Rotherham on loan (ooc at end of season I think). Did about as well as predicted at Cardiff Bit late to the party with this one but it’s really noticeable how many players have struggled since leaving us over the course of the past couple of seasons Talking about the likes of Lauren...

We should probably expect a bit of a regression to mean at some point. Just as we weren't as bad as 1 point in 8, we're not as good as 1 defeat in 10. We've seen endlessly under Dai, and before, that we are far more able to sustain poor form than good form over longer periods. Agreed but also in ou...

Always thought there was something there with Jahmari Clarke from the first time I saw him (cup appearance against Swansea IIRC). Followed that up with some decent looking cameos off the bench, most noticeably the brace against Birmingham (more goals in 45 minutes than our £7 million striker in half...

Don't know much about Stevenage, but a smaller club high in the table, managed by Steve Evans, I presume they're a physical side who will be trying to bully us and get lots of balls into the box, and who can create an intimidating atmosphere at their garden shed. So exactly the sort of game you exp...

From Despair To Where? And we all remember the highlight of his spell as Blackburn manager

Wish he used that piece of tactical genius in his last few months here!

Horror show for Liverpool today, never looked at it. That’s the thing really. Footballing wise, I haven’t been particularly impressed by Liverpool this season, certainly not relative to their league position anyway. But their mentality and their never die attitude has really shone this season Wasn’...

Arteta has really missed a trick this season by not using Jorginho enough. For all of the money and investment Liverpool spent in the summer, him, Rice and Odegaard were miles ahead of them this afternoon in every department Klopp made some strange calls. Gakpo has been there over a year now and has...

Unless you’re Liam Kelly that is

City host Burnley tonight. Burnley have scored one goal in their last 12 matches against City. City's last seven home games against Burnley, in reverse order - 6-0, 2-0, 5-0, 5-0, 5-0, 5-0, 4-1. I think I'll go home win. Test for Liverpool tonight - they should beat Chelsea, but the visitors have f...

Luton currently 4 up and pushing Everton into the bottom 3. What a weird result. If Luton stay up its arguably one of the greatest Premier League achievements ever. 3 wins in 16 for Brighton, injuries and Europe have taken a toll on their season Luton showing the merits of pragmatism and playing to...

Christ, Bournemouth really do stink the PL out don't they. Them, Palace and Forest are awful to watch. If Forest do go down, don't they have EFL charges to face re FFP also? Bournemouth one of the more watchable teams IMO On a very good run of form before today IIRC. After a slow start, Iraola is d...

Mental injury time at Brammal Lane 6 mins given on the board, currently in the 12 minute after 2 red cards and now the goalkeeper is being subbed off as a penalty is awarded Kudos to the referee and his team of officials for somehow managing to get all four big decisions in added time incorrect. Th...

One of the greatest managers of all time, but he's arguably done very little for five or six years now. Wonder if he might go to China/Saudi. I can't remember which thread it was in but I said yesterday that I think he is a shoo-in for the Newcastle job this summer. I can see Eddie Howe being let g...

Glad City won, anyone but LFC winning the league You can imagine with City's run in now that they're going to pick up momentum and that usually only means one thing. March will play a huge bearing on the title race, City have United, Anfield, Brighton, Arsenal and Villa in a row. Four tough ones an...

Thought the game was fairly entertaining. Exeter had some good ideas and played quite well first half but they made so many unforced errors it was unreal. One of those days when you really feel the difference in quality to the champ Thought their left hand side - Jules (goal aside) and the number 5...

Well, you can all enjoy me stuffing my face with pie if we still have a club and he does. I'm very burnt by coming round to Paunovic just in time for him to then become utter shite. He actually had a lot of bad luck at the end. We had the six point deduction and at Christmas lost ground as had to c...

What is your issue with anything that I've said? You think Jota's behaviour is acceptable? That is standard Liverpool. Didn't know you were a closet Liverpool supporter. Liverpool have certainly had the rub of the green with respect to refereeing decisions since the Spurs farce. Klopp, of course wo...
