I got it wrong in my judgement of him. I always thought he rarely impressed when he came on as a sub and never looked like he was developing as a player. Hence that is why I will never be a manager. He has taken the opportunity at Chelsea that he would never have got with us and is nailed on for...

I agree he kept the ball well but disagree that he took the game to them. He had Carvajal on a yellow and after that never tried once to go past him. When Doku came on it showed Jack exactly what he should have been doing running at the players and dragging the defense wide. Yes he needs more...

Seems to be a lot saying he had a good performance last night. He should no way be the scape goat for last nights loss. But what if anything did he offer last night that warranted a "good" performance.

I agree. But when the danger was coming he should have concentrated on his positioning instead of still waving his arm in the air for an offside that he wasn't going to get. He ended up on his arse and who knows if he had kept his arms down he might not have lost balance. Or more importantly...

Always seems to struggle against teams that sit deep cutting off the space for him to run into. Though his touch has been woeful of late. Doesn't help when you have wide players intent on narrowing the pitch by passing sideways or back inside instead of stretching the defense and creating that...

Gets far too much praise for lackluster performances where he offers nothing. Which is always the case when we are playing against a team parking the bus. The defender is on a yellow at least try and go past him and not just stand there doing pointless step overs to then pass the ball back 10...

Only one group that can take the blame for this is those idiots that wanted points scrapping for away games. They actually thought that was going to help other people move quicker up the points lad. Thick as mince the lot of them. All it did was allow the club to slowly move the points bands higher.

Worrying that we had to play 6 defenders on the pitch 2 to fill midfield roles when we had 3 sat on the bench. If we add in Ake and Gomes and the 2 keepers on the bench as well we had 11 defensive players in our match day squad. For the first time in awhile I looked at the subs and thought no...

I think of a lot of the owners used it to protect themselves. By that I mean by using the guise of FFP it saved them spending their own money in investing in the club. When Fans are screaming for new players and ground development they can hide behind we can not spend it because of FFP. In a way...

You missed out there. The courts will be closed 25th, 26th and 27th which would have been your 2nd week. They would have also been reluctant to start any long trials the week before Christmas and in all likelihood you would have only had to go in the 18th and 19th and they would have been...

FairPlay to those with 31,000 that is commitment and has come at a substantial financial cost.

Cheap tickets which makes up for the cost of the flights. I still have concerns over best area to stay and how the hell we get to and from the stadium.

No difference than an 18-25 having the chance of getting a ticket ahead of someone else whose had a season ticket for years but no where near enough points. Never forget the removal of points for away games wasn't voted on by season ticket holders and made absolutely no difference to ticket...

Nothing wrong with the current model. Plenty of away games for people to go to if they are willing to sacrifice the same as those on 25k points have done. Always the same crying about loyalty points when the Sh it, Arsenal and Murdering Scum away games come around.

Never said I wanted the same as Doku. I want him to stop slowing down play and running down blind alleys but if that’s what gets you off. Each to their own.

Integral to our treble winning team so allowed a bad game every now and then. However he really needs to stop slowing the play down when he gets the ball. Every time a ball went out to him he allowed the Newcastle team to get back then thought he was prime Maradona and would dribble pass them...

Had to check this. It was 9 years ago when they were charging us away fans £64 for a ticket and the club ended up paying for half of it. Although (could be wrong) it was £62 season earlier and we got no discount. Though the knock on of this was that the cheap train tickets suddenly disappeared...

That is very cheap. Direct flights with Saudi are 3 times that.

My all time favourite was the lad who had lost his Mrs in Madrid (I think) only for her to turn up the morning after looking like she had been getting more hammer than a builders thumb.

Used Uber abroad often even as recently as in Athens. Not sure I would be to confident in them turning up at a stadium that is a 4 mile walk from my hotel. A metro/rail system would be better.
