We still had to pay all or some of his wages Doesn’t bother me in the slightest. I’ve had to watch Joe Allen about 125-150 times and it’s been absolutely fucking terrible. x 1000 is how many posts the rest of us have had to endure from you.How do you think we feel?

It's a shame the know it alls on here only watch half the games. That’s nonsense too. The only two league games I’ve not watched are Sheffield United and this one 🤦♂️ Edit - Sorry, Derby too but saw half an hour of it. Wasn't talking about you mate,I said know it alls.

It's a gamble playing all of Vrancic,Sawyers and Powell,but I for one am enjoying it.Thought we bossed the 2nd half today and just as we were looking at our most comfortable,they equalized.I hope we continue in the same vein. It’s stupid. And I’m all for good football and attacking but we need to be more balanced. Balance the midfield out and this side once Campbell is back is pretty perfect. I enjoyed Sawyers' rabona pass. I loved Powell's shot from outside the area where he feigned to pass. I celebrated the move for our excellent goal. We may or may not have had any/all of these things happen with your team.

So there it is, straight from the mouth of th'hoss. It's by design. Wow. You thought O'Neill wanted to play with a defensive midfielder but didn't bother signing one. Wow!

Despite the consensus seemingly being that we we need a DM or don't have a DM, I'm not even sure everyone's on the same page as to what a defensive midfielder should be. I thought that Fulham midfield today shared the burden of defensive and attacking duties really well, and illustrate the point that a single player sitting deeper is negated by coming up against a quality midfield where 3 or 4 players are an effective unit. If you'd dropped a Cousins-type (as an example) into our midfield today I think they would have played round him, no matter how disciplined he was positionally. Cousins imo stops the second goal and maybe the first. You are an absolute pisser my friend,enjoy your night.

Great credit to O'Neill for this one for his perserverance,Tymon definitely wanted to leave last season but the manager told him he had faith in him,and he's certainly repaying it.

Purely from the outside looking in seemed a bit of a bizarre press conference saying TAA was always going when he'd already dropped him before. If he's bottled cutting him at the expense of Ward-Prowse it could really bite him in the @rse because you seem pretty light in that position for a 5-2-3 that he looks to be going with especially with Henderson's injury. I reckon it's which team manages injuries and Covid possibly more than the football that'll win this and could already hear on Talk Sport last night that 4 right backs will be used to crucify him if you have a poor tournament. With Hazard and De Bryne struggling can't see Belgium being up to much and France including Benzema on paper looks good but could be an absolute recipe for disaster. England have as good a chance as any of the big guns I reckon but wouldn't be surprised if a dark horse ended up winning it out of no place like a pragmatic Sweden or Denmark. Think JMM's shout of Italy at 9-1 is a good one. Long unbeaten run and seems to be a bit of feelgood factor about them. Italy are 11/1 in most places

Yep shafting Shawcross's International future wasn't Woys finest moment.. (From a Stokie perspective anyway!) & the way England set up & surrendered in tournaments under him was always very disappointing. Never been a fan of his but there's no faulting his career path in football & the high regard he's held in from within the game Harry Kane taking corners. Need I say more. You can thank Gary Neville for that.

impressed today and had a decent runout. For all his faults Brown is the least of our problems and has improved lately. Our biggest issues are the players with reputations and bought for big fees who just frankly aren’t worth it. Unfortunately no clubs stupid enough to offer them anything like what they’re on now so we’re stuck with them. Those still at the club who I’d release at the drop of the hat and start again Batth Chester Mikel Clucas Allen Mclean Vokes How many of them are worth the wage investment Brown was garbage today. Does garbage equal ok in your ridiculous language. He was way better than Fletcher.

Let's face it, tactical guru Rowett just stuck an extra body in midfield to try and get them a foothold in a game they were fortunate to be level in. It worked. But I'm not sure there's always another a chess move that MON could've countered with to try and regain the upper hand. We're down to the bare bones and if the move was bringing Clucas on, who's not match-fit and has largely stunk the place out this season, it was probably never going to be a killer. It was a tight game between two poor teams. We lost due to a Danny Batth special. I think that just about sums it up.Would have liked to have seen more of Norton though.

It's not going to work if we're both sarcastic. I assumed you were going to put forth some kind of half-cogent argument as to why you don’t agree... Was just checking you weren't on the wind up.For me Powell is integral to our plan and he had his worst game in a Stoke shirt today.O'Neill's subs made no impact (don't want to see Matondo again). Their winning goal came from a regular brain fade from Batth,can't remember Davies having a save to make.Thought we were were the better team even after their change in the second half.Struggling to see where Rowett got one up on him.
