    I don't like seeing Palace getting spanked, but good win for Spurs.

    Much needed. Just hope it doesn’t mean Levy thinks the squad doesn’t need strengthening though

    Disagree with this. He knows which legendary manager's reputation to kill. I'm gonna go for Simeone next for Spurs.

    Continue this boring, ****, defensive football.

    Aren't you a Newcastle supporter? I've seen your last two games... turn up for a 0-0, boot the opposition into next week, go down injured for 5 minutes at every opportunity.

    Actually witnessed this live at Old Trafford, this is exactly how they play.

    Spent half the game pretending to be hurt.

    Yeah it's a proper tactic for them. It's working, look at all the draws they're sneaking. It would do my head in watching that ****e, week in and week out.

    What are your thoughts on Amad? He's getting a few headlines at Sunderland and fans seem to like him there.

    Great player. I was unsure at first but hes one of the first names on the teamsheet, now.

    His ability to create space with his first touch is eye catching. A proper touch of class. He's still raw and has games where he's trying too hard and that can send him to **** but he's still young and consistency comes with age. Next season should be a loan to a premier league team and then I think he'll be ready for you.

    In all honesty, our squad is jam packed with young stars. We've turned out the youngest team this season out of all 4 leagues and trounced the opposition 4-1. He's at the perfect club for his development. I hope we go up and he stays another year <ok>

    Get on this horrible cow because the manager didn't pick her son. She's ruined a blokes career.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The mother of United States midfielder Giovanni Reyna says she reported head coach Gregg Berhalter for kicking his wife when they were teenagers.

    Berhalter is under investigation by US Soccer after admitting the allegation.

    Danielle Reyna, wife of former US captain Claudio, says she reported the incident to US Soccer on 11 December.

    She said it was "unfair" that "people were trashing" her son, 20, when Berhalter had done something "much worse" at a similar age.

    Borussia Dortmund player Reyna did not start a match for the US during the World Cup in Qatar.

    During a speech at a leadership summit in early December, Berhalter said an unnamed player was nearly sent home from Qatar for "not meeting expectations on and off the field".

    Berhalter believed his comments would remain private but after they were erroneously permitted to be published, Reyna posted on Instagram that he was told by the coach that his role at the tournament would be "very limited" and that he let it affect his "training and behaviour".

    He added that he had apologised to his team-mates and Berhalter.

    Berhalter said he had been contacted during the World Cup by someone saying they were going to "take him down".

    Nice one mate. I haven't seen him playing for you, only the highlights of one game last week where I think he scored the 3rd iirc, a screamer. I wasn't sure where he was playing, looked to be a number 10?

    Is he a CF? He came to us as a wing forward, Ole was looking to play him centrally as CF then he was sent out on loan by Rangnick so got no idea.

    It sounds good he's doing well. He got nowhere at Rangers on loan so if he's developing at Sunderland then it's all good. Just don't be tryna sign him!

    24 shots but turned up for 0-0's in both games <doh>

    That's ****ing ultra Gung ho in compared with Rafa and Bruce. Under them that would have been half a season's worth of shots

    Fabianski made a great save at the end. Could've lost the game there.
