    On todays performance im not saying im worried because key players were missing but some players who came in do worry me. Nile Ranger for example, he replaces Ameobi today because of Shola being injured and we say he is the only striker to trouble Man Utd's defence. Well on the performance today where are the goals coming from?

    We have 2 games coming up and im curious where the goals are going to come from. Nolan can get goals but he is a CM and I find it scary that he seems a better finisher than Lovenkrands and Ranger. The creative players are there and now all we need is a consistent goalscorer to guarentee us survival.

    Man Utd at home will be tough and I do not want Taylor or Ranger starting. Taylor was clumsy today and has been in most games he plays for us. He gives away silly fouls in crucial areas and against players like Hernandez and Rooney I will be terrified watching him. Ranger should be dropped and if Shola is not fit then play Ireland behind Lovenkrands because he is dangerous with his goalscoring and creative ability.

    Blackpool away we will have Nolan back and today shows how crucial a player he is, his leadership qualities andpresence in the penalty area and midfield is missed badly. If we lose these next two games and teams below us pick up points we are sucked back so it's crucial we get at least 4 points to ensure safety.

    I'm certainly not worried, because there are too many poor teams below us for us to be relegated.

    HOWEVER, I am worried for next season, if we don't buy a consistent goalscorer over the summer (Elmander/Gervinho etc)

    "If sunderland win" You're admiting that your team is not good enough for a win yet. Don't worry im sure they will get their next win next season when they have Bruce sacked and their best players gone. I'm sorry to say that your club is in a much worse posistion than ours.

    Confident about a result at Blackpool, they're home record is the worst in the league after all, not so confident of Man U but judging by our season so far guys... not a clue

    To be fair I did notice them over there yesterday, am sure Tash said on Friday he wanted u lot to win, as he didn't like West Brom and thought they were overrated.

    2-0 Man Utd, saw them against Chelsea and was very impressed with them, mind u we haven't failed to score at home since November. At least Tiote will be back.

    Talk about a dire example. One of the least consistent players in the league.

    United game could be a funny one, midweek under the lights... and Blackpool were dreadful today and have been for ages, we can get something there!

    Agree with that! Especially with Nolan and Tiote BOTH back for the Blackpool game.

    Didn't see all of it, but from what I heard and saw thought Blackpool were unlucky. Though they do have the worst home record in the league.

    I watched the game, and apart from 10-15 at the start of both halves Arsenal dominated them and could have had 5 or 6 easily.

    Blackpool aren't the team they were september/october time, I think we could get a result there if there aren't too many injuries/suspensions
