Be a perfect signing for Palace.

Need to bowl them out first for under 350 i think then the batsman can do their job.

He's 28 not 40

Its good to have options up front

I thought he was great under Oneill but he hasn't been the same since the euros. He's a player that could give us a lot but Lambert won't be interested in a loan signing. Its not like were desperate for points.

Actually decent first day for England. The dropped catch could be significant. Monty dropped one off his own bowling so could have ended up with 3

What formation do we go with this one? Benteke or Kozak? scrap the 3 at the back certainly if Vlaar is injured.

I'd tip Everton to nick that fourth spot tbh. They've been impressive - under Martinez they seem to have gained a lot of fluidity in attack, but at the same time they've retained the defensive strength they had under Moyes (which has surprised me, given how porous Wigan's defence was last season). Liverpool are great in attack but a little suspect defensively imo, Spurs look devoid of ideas going forward. United could very well edge ahead of them, but Everton look strong. There's 3 teams going for the title and 4 teams chasing 4th spot. Tottenham should get better as the season goes along. Liverpool were very poor at Hull but Suarez in my view is the best player in the league. He could easily end up with 35/40 goals this season.

Lucky?? How do you figure that out? Just my opinion but i think most of the half decent goalkeepers in the league save that, seemed to be straight at him more or less but as i said a goal is a goal. It was the power of the header from such close range so not so sure. He's proved a very useful signing and if you get crosses into the box he will score goals.

I thought Gabby took his goal brilliantly. He's come back really well from injury. Huge positive is Gabby playing well.

Yes its a much tougher game now since Jol has been sacked. They are going to be really up for this! Could go either way this one.

Was something wrong when they won the league with a 39½ year old starting in midfield six months ago, or when he was arguably the best player on the pitch in the 5-0 win away at the second best team in Germany a week ago? United have problems but your gross oversimplification is wide of the mark. I'm not doubting his ability but you have to admit that Giggs would not get in the Chelsea, Arsenal or Man City's mid fields. Midfeld is the weak area for United.

Something has to be wrong if you need to start with a 40 year old in midfield. People complain about our midfield but I'd take our over theres.

Yes he's a sensational player isn't he! Probably the best player in the Premier League.

Yes i think England will struggle to win this test.

Yep he's not a cb

He says that every week doesn't he

Yes Lowton looked really vunerable. I dont think we would have conceded those two goals with Vlaar on the pitch.

I thought Vlaar going off at half time would cost us. Its a great win but i'm worried aout our defence if Vlaar is missing for any period of time.

Great win! Great goals Kozak and Delph. i hope its the first of many for Delph.

Tactically good from Lambert but it would be nice if we could string two passes together. Please bring on Benteke for Kozak.

Guess lambert might call it rested rather than dropped as there's 6 games in December.

Yes although it hasn't protected other celebs. Was Townsend caught accessing a child porn site and got away with it because he claimed it was for research? Having looked into that it may be the case he wasn't accessing child porn at all, something to do with his credit card. Yes his story does seem a little far-fetched but they couldn't find any indecent images or that he had actually accessed the site he had paid for by credit card. Not too difficult for to remove all traces but he has to be given the benefit of the doubt. Unless you're an IT pro, it's pretty difficult to remove traces. I think he thought about it, and changed his mind. He's got issues, as anybody familiar with his life story will know, but on this one I believe him. Yes that's very likely.

No evidence that he could turn it round at any minute, ridiculous. You also predict a loss and moan about the team before every single game. No its so ridiculous he only scored 19 league goals last season.
