Don't look at me look at the table three bad results and we are right in the mix it's what happens when you only win three home games all season regardless of who they are against your always a bad spall away from trouble .
I've never changed my view I'd take 40 points. Now v any cup results as my view is this first 11 and squad might not be sure of getting 40 .

Huge blow as I said in August he is one of the first names on the sheet the very core of the team . We missed him badly on Saturday most notably physically when we looked so poor clearing and defending set pieces which ultimately cost us and got out legged on midfield so often . I'd now play diouf up top with bojan behind him or affelay to get some more strength and legs in the team . Ultimately one of the galaticos can't olay unless affelay can play as one of two central midfielders. Huge loss as it's a massive game for both teams as the bottom of the table closes up and. We have two tough away games to follow always tougher when the games are close together to play away lose Saturday and we could be in squeaky territory by the 3rd of. Jan . The Liverpool and doncaster games game would then be a unwelcome meaningless distractions compared to our main goal , with season defining home games to Norwich and arsenal week of the 11th Ok, I'll bite.... Really Norwich and Arsenal season defining games? Come on mate. We're playing for the league cup and I hope we are going for it. I don't actually disagree with your points about Geoff. We missed him on Saturday, especially with Whelan struggling. Why can't you just cut the shit out and talk sense all the time?

Biscuit sometimes makes valid points very badly and sometimes spells and sentence-constructs very badly but does just enough to get bites after a home defeat - in my heart of hearts I know benji will not have to post now until March!

Geoff had an excellent game today, but after a challenge on Fellaini around 65' looked to be limping a little. Glad he was taken off and hope he stays healthy for the next few matches!

Could have been in the three musketeers if he wasn't a footballer. It's one for all and all for one with him. A good team player who looks to bring the best out of those around him

First half he was sensational. Had Fellaini exactly where he wanted him and his passing was incredible. Did well in the second too and sounds like he should be ok fitness wise. Strong motm contender.

Cameron was superb. He makes tackling look an art form. He's improved on the ball as well. Looks like we've found his best position.
Had major doubts about him as a footballer but at the moment he's ramming criticism down peoples throat and long may it continue.

Such a crying shame our ex manager left him to rot at right back, a position he'd never played before coming here.

That's disrespectful and cheap imho Cameron and Affelay are looking good over the few games they have played at CM but why disrespect a player who played a major role in helping us to 2 consecutive highest places in the Prem and consistently performed well in that position over a 3 year period. Unnecessary!

Superb Geoff was again in midfield. He's actually better than Glenn in that role but him and Glenn work really well.

Some of the stuff posted on here about Cameron in the past was ridiculous.
He's a fine player with a massive fook off heart and no apparent ego....he deserves an extended stay in the team playing the way he is.

Unnecessary! No he was constantly agitating for a move, left as soon as he could and had acquired a God like status he never deserved as his stats show. He was overrated and we have replaced him with a player in Afellay who is on a different level. We have played football against the two Manchester teams that would not have been possible last season with N'Zonzi slowing the game down so regularly. N'Zonzi chose to leave and I am just presenting my view. No disrespect, the only disrespect was shown by N'Zonzi who couldn't wait to turn his back on Stoke

Geoff has been the silent rock in the games he's played of late although to be fair he was just silent today.
Charlie?
