I did same earlier! Gotta fancy his chances

We've stopped pressing them again!!

Spurs aren't letting us pass out from the back and we have no plan B. It just ends up with Funes Mori who doesn't have the distribution. Need a new plan as we are being bossed.

Beautiful!!!

They are taking a few pot shots at Howard, must have heard the rumours....Ha

Stones had a shocker, Coleman looked ok going forward but he is lacking the defensive consistency he had a few years ago. I think Galloway is left exposed when he has Geri in front of him and Shaqiri had a field day. Barry was exceptional first half but he can't rescue us everytime the defence fail to clear it.

Considering Arnoutovic should have had two yellows earlier in the game and didn't get one it's fucking gutting.

How many wake up calls has he had this season though? Martinez needs a slap. It's a disgrace.

It's embarassing, so embarassing

Arghhjjjj

We are looking better this half but we are throwing a lot of men forward

Couldn't happen soon enough. Galloway is being torn a new arsehole by Shaqiri

The only teams to concede more than us this year are in the bottom 6. We are trying to climb up a ladder with lead boots on. It needs sorting.

I'm fucking sick of how shit we are at the back. It's embarassing.

Great play from Lukaku again there

We are so vulnerable at the back its a miracle we ever win

Stoke are looking threatening on the break

I think we'll take this game but I wouldn't be surprised to see Palace peppering our box with crosses like Bournemouth did. It's our Achilles heal and I dare say Palace have more quality than Bournemouth so we need to be careful. If Howard has a good game I think we'll be fine.....ah shit! Must stay positive. 3-2 win.

He had one job. Cruise the fan sites and copy and paste some comments. Haha. Knob.

Yep. I don't know what James McArthurs form has got to do with us!

Just spotted this is today's i Paper... http://www.toffeetalk.com/index.php?/gallery/image/83-inewspaper-sat-14th-nov/

I mean that I'd rather play a (very) slightly weakened side against Bournemouth, than against Middlesborough, which should be our priority that week.

But as someone quite rightly pointed out earlier, when you are banking 80-100 million per season in TV money, 2-3 million doesn't make much difference. If you'd rather our incompetent financial department havr some extra money, than us win a trophy for the first time in 20 years then frankly you are crackers!!!! In response to your second comment... How about "come join our club, we are incapable of winning anything, ever!!" I know which I'd prefer.

I don't see any reason why we shouldn't go all out to win this cup, once upon a time the common belief was that a good cup run could lead to good results in the league. Nowadays everyone seems to think it's exhausting for clubs. Nonsense, we aren't playing European football so we are playing 10-15 games less than last year. I think the whole squad rotation system for cups was brought about by teams like Arsenal and United back in the day who had a lot of fixtures and were competing on multiple fronts. For us this simply isn't the case at the moment so there is absolutely no reason why we should be resting players with Bournemouth in mind. What's the point in finishing one place higher, which I'm our case might just sneak us into Europe, when we could win a trophy and get into Europe at the same time? No brainer for me. On a non-footballing note, I think winning a trophy might also make us more appealing to potential investors and players.
