    Palfy got a reaction from MikeO in Manchester United (Home) January 1st   
    Surely if as Allardyce said tired legs couldn't he have made these changes against WBA and Bournemouth where we were so defensive against the lesser teams don't make sense to me

    I think when Lennon has played we have looked a lot more solid on the right and Kenny looks much better due to Lennon covering when he gets forward.
    On the left is a different matter and not just because Cuco isn'tt a left back, it's more that Cuco seems to get exposed when he tries to get forward mainly because Gylfi isn'tt covering or is slow to react to the danger, Allardyce should be encouraging Cuco to get forward because he can usually get a good cross in, but he needs to make sure that he is getting cover.

    Went with Martinez better than watching Brazil that season, but the season's and team that will always be the greatest for me was 83- 84, 84-85.

    I'm getting the feeling Sam would rather get a point from the United game than any form the Bournemouth game, he seems to want to get results from playing the big clubs for his own personal gains and can't be arsed with the  more mediocre games because they don't get him the headlines, I hope I'm wrong but we could have a manager who is working for himself and not the team, because some of his selections against the lower clubs have been a shambles, yet against United guaranteed we will see the team we should have seen against Bournemouth, and if we get something from it who will get all the plaudits Big Sam.

    Palfy got a reaction from StevO in At what point do we say we are contenders for a European spot?   
    Now that the supposed threat of relegation has disappeared could we do the same as last season and finish 7th and secure a European spot, imo I would say yes we need to rein Burnley in who are obviously batting a little above their station, in part to our start to the season but we are turning it round and I believe only one point behind where we were this time last season.

    Still struggling to digest it totally gobsmacked to be honest, we had a chance for 3 easy points and never tried to take them, WHY ?.

    For all the chances Chelsea had they had no more than 2 clear cut chances, our solid defending resulted in most of there attempts being half chances at best, yes they dominated possession but they were allowed to but what they weren't allowed to do was score at will, that's the first step in creating a winning team keep a clean sheet, I was more than happy with what I witnessed under the circumstances of what we have seen this season until Allardyce arrived, will he get us playing decent football who knows he may surprise a lot of people he's never managed anyone with money before we may see the manager he couldn't be at his other clubs.

    Strange that Keane was voted man of the match on Sky but has yet to register a vote on TT, is this official evidence that we are a bunch of wankers who haven't got a clue what there on about😂

    I suppose the criteria would be are we better at winning the ball in midfield, are we better at retaining it, are we better at moving it with purpose, are we better at passing it, are we better at helping defend, are we better at joining the front man or men, does our shape look better, does our time in possession improve and do we still get results, and important does the player who fills his position make it hard for him to regain his place, I hope so in a positive way😝

    Hope Gana's injury isn'tt to serious but should he be ruled out for the next 3-4 games, then we will see whether the team is worse for not having him or better without him, there has been a lot of debate on this subject we may get to see the answer, personally I think we will be alright and improve.

    We need European football to attract the striker we are looking for.

    We shouldn't be buying in January we should be selling the players surplus to requirements, if you buy in January you pay through the nose for average players, were not in danger of going down so no panic buys required let's take our time do the homework and get the right players for the right money.

    They weren't good times but for some reason I didn't feel the threat of relegation, I think I immunized my self from it last season when I was shouting sack Koeman he's going to take us down and we ended up finishing 7th.

    What do worker's rights matter to all the pensioners that pushed Brexit over the line, easy fuck all if wages fall in real terms then so should pensions they thought they had a free vote that financially if they voted out it wouldn't effect them, let's let them know that the state pension rules are going to change and take away any guaranteed income if that would have been said at the outset then we may have had a different result, that also goes for anyone claiming state benefit, if it goes badly wrong everyone should feel the pain not just the workers.

    10 points from a relegation spot and 9 from a champions league place and players starting to find some form, do me a favour and cut the relegation bull shit out.
