    I'd suggest moving negotiations from the office to a hotel...

    The effect of Ralph would be diluted if Koeman was allowed to sleep. We need to get Ron to the point that he'd sign his own death warrant to get Ralph to stop.

    He never actually tackles any of the customers, he just forces them to turn away and try another route in.

    Anyone know why Ward-Prowse didn't take it? He came on for Tadic 3 mins earlier, and I thought they were our #1 and #2 pen takers.

    He took the ball initially and then he was talked out of it or bullied....Not Captain yet James!

    We've not had loads of penalties this season, but all of them seemed to have involved an on-field debate about who is going to take it

    Ryan hadn't scored this season and they decided to be naughty, basically.

    And I bet none of them looked towards the bench where Koeman was going ballistic apparently. :)

    Koeman has told JWP to be more forceful before...he is the penalty taker.

    I reckon that Ryan was the designated penalty taker when JWP wasn't on the pitch. Him coming on confused things a bit but Pelle appeared to be the naughty one. I hate to see that.

    Anyway, Fonte stepped in and sorted it out.

    VVD seemed to give Pelle a telling off for not then joining in the celebrations.

    I sit just behind and I didn't notice him going ballistic.

    He did on one occasion when a simple pass wasn't played into space causing the recipient to stop his run. That sort of thing really frustrates him.

    Yes, sorry about that!

    What he really hates by the way is when a potentially speedy attack is halted with a back pass. I get the feeling that he'd rather see a speculative pass forwards than a simple, retain possession pass.

    I could be wrong though. I was once:emoticon-0128-hi:

    Everyone can be wrong once. I know my turn could just be round the corner. :p
