    Hooper has scored a second tonight - what did we quote Sheff Weds, £5.5m or £6? <laugh>

    Wish we had a striker who could finish like Hooper.

    I'm not worried about Villa but still be nice seeing them lose.

    To add to the list I've not seen mentioned. Fer scored for QPR and Murphy scored again for Coventry.

    Yes, but PL defenders are generally better.

    Palace have had 1 shot on target all game?! Why can't they just dive for a penalty like they usually do?

    i did a table comparing the strikers last year and hooper was by far the best at taking his chances. Grabban on the other hand was bloody terrible at it. And yet Grabban will probably sell for more. Madness.

    Oh balls Newcastle equalize

    not the worst set of results. Happy that bournemouth lost, i think they seem a more likely relegation candidate than swansea and possibly Newcastle if they get their stuff together.

    Scheisse. Having conceded after 12 seconds, the Binners get a last minute winner <doh>

    Rather Villa won than any of the other 2, and at least Bournemouth will have come down off their high of spending big, with that defeat from 1-0 up. Little knock to them. Newcastle will take heart, but also, they needed to win that after teams like us beating them.

    Just heard the report on 5 Live and the commentator remarked on Afobe's misses.

    Hmmm, must have been bad to watch for those fans. Especially the step on the ball one when he was through on goal. I want to see that.

    with Afobe and Grabban up front seems like they'll need quite a few chances now.

    For the record, Grabban had a conversion rate of 16% last year. Sold for £8 MILLION.
