    Some sort of alice band I think.

    Fonte was a bit lucky not to get booked for that tackle there. Not the most exciting second half but that's probably exactly what we needed.

    Superb away performance, stayed strong and clinical in attack.

    Brilliant 3 points, and with Lovren and Fonte both fit, we have a chance at Everton now.

    I don't know why Lovren didn't play today as i've not been on here for the past couple of days.. Any clue? Did he not pass his match day morning Fitness test?

    Yoshida had a great game. I'd play the same team again even if Lovren is available for Everton.

    Lukaku is a whole different kettle of fish though. If he's fit Lovren has to play for me.

    Nice. The 5 teams below us all lost. 9th position is ours. We can start looking up again. Good day. Well done Gazza and the back 4.

    Rodriguez, Lallana, and Lambert were unplayable in the first half, Rickie looked a different player from Sunday. Davis was fantastic too, and the defence was sound. Great to see Gazza playing with a bit of confidence. He just might become a good keeper in a couple of years.

    Clean sheet without Lovren. Get rid of him!



    Yoshida steped in and played superbly. Our midfield trio was fantastic, Lambert improved on last preformances and Lallana keeps getting better.

    Jay Rod one goal shy of being the most prolific English scorer in the EPL.

    Absolutely no chance! Not playing Lovren in this team when you have a chance is utter suicide. As has been said, Lukaku and Campbell are two very, very different kettles of fish. Yoshi did perfectly well, despite some questionable distribution at times, but if Lovren is available, of course he plays.

    That game just emphasised how far down the pecking order Jos should be.

    Well done boys, back aboard the win Express.

    I don't think we should get too ahead of ourselves here, it was a decent performance against a woeful Cardiff in the first half. Rodriguez was absolutely clinical and Lallana was fantastic once again, but we did look a little vulnerable and were lucky that Cardiff couldn't take advantage. They were swinging all of their set pieces right under our crossbar as they knew that Gazzaniga was not confident enough to come off his line and at the beginning of the first half it looked like it may have paid off for them.
    I'm not completely convinced by Yoshida, he had some very good last ditch tackles today, but doesn't fill me with the confidence that either Lovren or Fonte do.

    Does anyone know if Schneiderlin is banned against Everton? I remember hearing some whispers that he was one yellow away from a ban?
