I said after the Arsenal game that Weimann looked tired and 'leggy' throughout - and he hasn't improved since.

It really is down to the Fulham game for me - we need them to (ideally) lose but certainly drop points.

So just an average Saturday afternoon for Nathan 'I'm made of butter' Baker.

Problem is, even our own manager seems to have given up with us. He looked totally isolated and alone yesterday and that must transcend onto the pitch.

Although they've now lost Shawcross to suspension

Townsend is a bellend of the highest order and has literally zero insight. He is absolutely putrid when commentating on England games, he's a parrot and a cheerleader, it's amazing that he played for Ireland. He played for Ireland because of his footballing ability not his punditry skills, I'm guessing. (But he is utter turd as a pundit)

I was at Palace and there was no deliberate disrespecting the Hillsborough minutes silence. What happened was people were late getting into the away end at 3.07 when the silence was being held - so the sounds, shouting etc were of those who were unaware the silence had started. From what I saw around me, everyone who was in the seats was obeying the silence perfectly.

Yes

Cup Final. Last chance to gain any points for us this season. Hull will play with more freedom as our team and crowd will be nervous as hell. Jelavic and Long could stroll this - both are cup-tied so won't be worrying about getting injured fir the final.This is all set up for a loss. Hull have a much better shape to them than us. Our squad lacks the fight, spirit, determination, drive and quality to stand up to the rest of beating teams around us...especially without Benteke who, as we all know, we rely so heavily on. I'll approach this game the same way I have the past couple if months...expect a loss so will be keeping my eye on the other teams around us instead. Just horrible. Ps, pleeeeeeease no bullsh*t photos of the whole squad laughing their arses off in training this week.

It's funny how up until now Lambert has been looking up the table and stating how teams would love to be where we are...yet after today he says how "next week is a cup final". It's as if it has literally just dawned on him. He looks like he has given up, he's lost his main two assistants and his job is on the line - I now firmly believe he will be gone after Spurs.

Not sure if serious? They may as well have hired the cast of The Inbetweeners for the final 4games of the season - they're all gone afterwards. No they aren't. Nicky Butt was the U19 manager and reserve assistant for the second half of this season. There is no reason for him to lose his spot there. It is likely positions will be made available for Scholes, Giggs and Phil. Fergie and the board are reported to wanted Giggs as assistant and have him take over in a few years. I mean that all four will be relieved of their first team duties next season. The board will take more control over the hiring of the next manager I'm sure - and won't be relying on Fergie's recommendations after Moyes. A new manager would bring his own first team staff I'm certain. That said, I still acknowledge that Giggs will always be part of United in some capacity.

Seriously, I've said this before pretty much every game this season "I'd take a point" is how I've summarised our chances every time. Wouldn't mind reaching 38points if im honest...

Sounds like a pain in the arse

As long as we've got Premier League badges on the sleeves I couldn't give a toss what kit we have... ...although another white away kit would be nice

Score? He barely has a shot anymore let alone score.

Have firmly lost all belief that we can win another game in the Premier League this season so will be hoping and praying we don't lose.

Christ, imagine Quinny on TalkSport if they win it...

Watched American Hustle last night and despite hearing from lots of people how poor it was, I enjoyed it.

Didn't you know Carol Vorderman was a Villa fan? Makes sense....as we used to be one from the top an now we're as good as any other five (from the bottom half)

That what we said about Sunderland too, and they end up beating Chelsea. Football isn't allways as predictable as you may think. This.* *unless we're talking about AVFC

Says it all when our second highest scorer in the team was our RB.... Gabby and Weimann just arn't good enough to be our strikers.

Hard earned point - and can be considered lucky considering how inept we were throughout, plus the clear penalty from Bertrand and the two sitters saints missed. We had zero ability to retain possession or make chances. Albrighton did well today - especially considering he was up against an excellent left back. He didn't stop hustling and whipping decent balls into the box. KEA pressed them well too and Vlaar was solid at the back. Special mention for how awful Weimann was - completely out of the game and barely had a touch. He offered nothing today and I wouldn't start him again this season. We just need to stumble over the finish line and that draw gets us a little closer. It was far from pretty but at this stage I just want to see us safe. Great to see attacking substitutions from Lambert - and great to see Robinson thrown on. Makes you wonder who's making the decisions as he wasn't getting a sniff before the debacle last week. Thought our crowd were excellent in that they supported the team throughout - it was much needed and the players would have been lifted by that.

Well today's revelations will help our planning and prep for the Saints game... #Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat

Gabby is at his best when he gets behind defenders - his pace hurts teams. However this season he always seems to be in the middle of the park where he is ineffective. If he was played up top then at least we can play to that strength. That said, I think he'll start Holt.
