Main problem is I don't trust Martin to replace him. Or build in positions where we need it.

Really hope Khan hurts Maliggnllaanniii.

Well done Spurs. Where they went and beat Arsenal and Chelsea at Home when it mattered, we played like a League 2 team against Sunderland and Wolves. It's our own fault.

Dida? Not playing for Milan atm, but a big name keeper playing in Italy, which is where I think Mancini is likely to go.

I despise the Everton team and manager. Always have decent games with 'em though, a win over them is massive.

Sorry, what's the difference between not voting and spoiling your paper?

I really hope Terry come out and says the same things again "Yes we rode our luck, but we knew if we could hang on we'd be able to beat the comfortably in the last 20 mins" because it'f bloody true! Petrov bypassed like he wasn't there led to their break then the corner where Dunney ballsed up his clearance. Milner knackered all game still played OK but couldn't run properly. Cuellar poor at RB again, doesn't know where his man is, today appeared to be good because he made a few tackles for a change but still poor in possession and negative. MON does not learn or change. Carew for **** Heskey, what a shock. I bet Chelsea were so relieved. --- Saying all that, ref robbed us of a blatant pen and the first half was good, but the damage has been done to our players. They are tired because they have been run into the ground by a manager who refuses to pick a team bearing any relevance to form.

Exact team I'd pick. It won't be. It will be Carew and Collins in for Delph and Luke Young. MON has a nasty habit of only making the easy subs like Delph off, even when he's our best player. Maybe it's to answer his critics who say he doesn't make enough subs.

In fact, can anyone locate that big long cartoon strip starring all the countries? It maps out 70% of history, I remember it being bloody impressive. Just been through this whole excellent thread after it but I have a feeling it is in the depths of phunnay pics.

Where's the one similar to that? Big long cartoon with all the country's as characters walking around chatting. Both very good.

Any idea if Arteta is fit this weekend?

It isn't games like this that will cost us come the end of the season. It's putting in similar performances at home v Sunderland and Wolves. Only thing that can save us is other teams failing and our players all dabbling in some speed up before every game.

We're **** if Spurs get it. Then them, City and Liverpool will all be well ahead of us. Though the effect it could have on Liverpool's team may see them drop below us.

I thought up until their 3rd our performance was miles better than Wolves and Sunderland games. Even then afterwards we still got forward a few times. It was the defence and the organisation of central midfield.

Delf done more in 15 mins that Heskey has in 4 games. How long has he been playing like this in training? Bollocks that it's taken injuries for him to get a go.

What could happen today for MON to bring on Beye or Salifou on? What is the point? Surely Weimann or Albrighton should be there.

About time Downing got dropped and we had a proper right back in. If we get a result will MON be hailed for his genius changes even though it's been painfully obvious for weeks he was picking the wrong team. I'd have gone with Albrighton over Sidders I think. Just to keep Milner in the middle really, not knocking Sidwell as he's looked better recently seems a bit more confident.

Makes me feel old that Hitz is 27

Outside of motivating a team playing poorly, what would people say O'Neill's strengths are?

What a joke. In what instance are Beye or Salifou ever going to make an appearance? Doesn't matter, subs are not really in our plans. Game rests on Young's shoulders if Milner isn't 100%

What game?

This could be the end of our challenge for 4th if we slip up.

Friedel Cuellar Dunne Collins Warnock Downing Milner Petrov Young Heskey Carew Friedel Young Dunne Cuellar Warnock Albrighton Petrov Milner Young Carew Agbonlahor

Wonder if Downing will get dropped for his 42nd bad game in a row?

Milner was never worth 10m when this was started to be fair. Last season he didn't look a 12m player tbh.
