Couldn’t agree more. Not only that two other things need to happen. Firstly Gomes needs to be relieved of corner duties (don’t think I’ve ever seen such poor corners as what I witnessed on Sunday) and secondly the corners need to avoid VVD as they’ll be rendered useless anyway.

Even in our heyday of the mid 80s, I feared no team bar Liverpool. Think they’ve always had a psychological edge over us in my lifetime. Can’t see it ending anytime soon.

As long as he’s not on corners.

Whilst he was here he had an excellent track record with buying players for relatively low money who went on to be great players for us. Arteta, Piennar, Coleman, Jags, Lescott, Baines etc. Maybe the football landscape has changed since then, but there is no doubt there are still bargains to be...

Would love to have adidas, if not for any reason we’ve had all the other kit makers Le coq, Umbro, puma, Nike, Hummel. Very unlikely as Newcastle and Villa are going to adidas next season.

FSG struck lucky with Klopp and the purchase price of buying the club. Their main focus has been the expansion of the stadium and training ground. Many Liverpool fans for years were complaining of low investment in the playing squad. They bought their future stars cheap and sold for huge profits...

Jota is the player that worries me most. In a team of overrated players, he is one of the underrated ones that barely gets a mention.

As long as Luton don’t beat us I think we’ll be safe.

Congratulations fella. A great day all round.

Slightly off topic, but Forest should be thanking their lucky stars they only got a 4 point deduction for a 35m overspend compared to our 6 point deduction for a 19m overspend. If we’d got a 4 point deduction and they a 6 point deduction, todays decisions wouldn’t have mattered so much.

If only we had him on corners now.

Said this to a mate. We got a slice of luck today, which is just as well as we’ll get non against the RS. Genuinely struggling to think of a major decision that has gone for us in one.

Truthfully what was the point in them appointing Clattenburg? If it was to put pressure on the PGMOL because some decisions have gone against them, then it has backfired massively. Its ironic if Clattenburg was involved in that statement and he gave arguably the worst referring performance ever...

Result was more important than the performance. We showed more attacking intent, then of late in the first half. But the second half was a familiar tale. But a massive 3 points for us, but we HAVE to be much better against the RS.

Young and Harrison should have been the first hooked.
