Martin Tyler needs counselling here

Martin Tyler - what an absolute tit. Went in kitchen and I didn't hear a peep, came back and 2-0, Tyler all quiet. Disgrace!

Really, that goal was incredible. Not spectacular but the way he worked it from being surrounded, and the finish? Just awesome.

Absolute class there ronaldo

Newz bar girls are very interesting. You could look like Brad Pitt but unless you have £3000 rolled up in your pocket and act that you are minted then they walk past as if their part time job in river island and maxed out credit cards deserves much better. Some in there are too quality and pretty decent to go with it, but unfortunately it's the pretenders who give them a bad name. Going back 10-12 years now but you get the picture.

Reading Duncan Fergusons book at the moment - he had regular falling outs with Moyes (some were documented). By all accounts he left Ruud Gullits door hanging of its hinges at Nerwcastle after the Sunderland game after Gullit stated that Newcastle were winning till Shearer and Dunc came on.

I split up with my first girlfriend at 21 (call it a break whilst she went to work on cruise ships) - I was back in the mix within one week and didn't look back. At 21 he is too young for emotional involvement like that - then again it is meant to be good grounding for players so who knows. If he stays out of the Newz bar etc then he has a good chance of not picking up the wrong type of girl ala Romeys post above.

I've heard enough Reds saying that they wouldn't mind him in their team. That is saying something. There are players out there that whilst not being the most spectacular do an amazing job for the team. Shane Long hasn't scored a goal for Southampton but he was outstanding for them against Sunderland. He has the same ethic as Naismith (both better in the air than they should be) - at £12m he is a little overpriced but gives an idea as to how much Naismith should be valued...

Poor Southampton will be getting another dose of this soon. The press have seen Lovren, Lallana, and Lambert go and do a distinctly average but expensive job at anfield - next up will be Pelle and Tadic. Not every good player is for every team.

I expect a 2 year deal to be offered in the summer. Well deserved if he carries on the way he is going. Typifies the professionalism and type of attitude we want from supposedly more lavishly gifted players.

Congrats Matt, welcome to fatherhood. Great feeling.

Exactly this. The U.S are far more pro active than we are in their diagnosis. I was told this by a surgeon. If approaching the age of 50, seriously look at the potential of having a check up. 1 in 4 people develop a colonic polyp around the age of 50, they "can" turn cancerous and are therefore removed pretty easily. Better to know the stats than to just hope it doesn't happen or just goes away. In short - see a G.P and ensure you get looked at properly.

Good to hear! Bowel cancer is a very treatable cancer "if" caught early. The "IF" usually boils down to the individual taking prompt action upon seeing any of the early signs - passing blood, any toilet irregularities etc, lumps, loss of weight etc. My family has a history and I have had a check up before now - the anticipation is far worse than the reality. Health care professionals treat you with the upmost respect and dignity, It really is worth going for peace of mind. If anyone ever has the slightest doubt go and get checked out. Do not accept irritable bowel as a "diagnosis" if you don't feel that is what it is - that cost Bobby Moore his life.

Berahino, what a finish that was 2-1 wba.

Honestly that thought escaped me...... For about 0.0234 seconds.

When he does stuff like that you think "that's ibrahimovic" still dontbthink he's a united type of player though.

Cracking goal by fellaini. Chest control was superb.

I'm in the process of trying to reverse the fat dad look. No beer through October up to now.

The only striker that wouldn't benefit from Barkley is Rooney. Based on the number of times he tried to tackle him in the world cup I think the botoxed one is a little bit jealous of him.

Don't sit on the fence

The way I see it now is keep playing him. Regardless of his erratic touch, he needs fitness, sharpness and confidence. It will be a good test of his character to overcome a crisis of confidence and get some real mental strength. Naismith is an example in this regard. "Professionally" - Naismith can be a tremendous mentor for Rom. Technically Eto can. The players do root for him, but he is not without his critics, namely Seamus, Coleman can be often seen berating him when he ain't putting it in.

I just think we have yet to show any type of consistency or pattern to our player. The main players need more game time together. At least a first half for Barkley and Coleman.

Don't think I've put anyone on ignore in what must be near 10 years. had loads of disputes but managed to not have to use it.

Probably not. Just rumours that come from forums ironically.

Story is ... Like Vellios, wilfried zaha, darron Gibson he's been seeing Moyes daughter... Well that's the usual reason players disappeared for no reason. The fact is no one knows. My guess is that a loss of form has led to a bit of a falling out, nothing major but he's possibly assessing his options. He's a top pro, it really isn't a major thing to get excited about.
