    Completely outclassed Swansea today. Romeu and Davis were excellent and Tadic was unplayable for the last 10mins of the first half and the whole second half. Well done to Puel as well, made the subs at the correct time.

    See General Fooball thread. I named the team as breaking news... not606 exclusive.

    4-3-3 and even changed all the positions around as we were 7-1 up at half time :)

    Loved him screaming at Pierre as well when he didn't get the pass to him right <laugh>

    I think Cuco needs his own song.

    Good point re Puel and the subs. He's been criticised for waiting too long at times this season, thought he got both the timing and personnel spot on today.

    Austin's hold up play could be better than Pelle's I reckon. He's constantly aware of runners coming into him, played some really nice touches back to Davis.
    Hopefully he can stay fit, keep getting game time and really kick on. I can't help but love him!

    His full name is Rhu-endly Aurelio Jean-Carlo "Cuco" Martina. So erm, good luck with that!

    Said it before, if he can stay fit, I'd have him over Pelle all day Shane Long.

    Just looked back over the results so far and apart from the Manure game, the team seem to be pretty solid. We haven't been battered like Stoke and others.
    So results not great at first but we are slowly and steadily improving. Even Lester are only mid table. Positive, positive, positive.

    It's not just foreign players who hard to put to music. How about Danny Higginbotham and Adebeyo Akinfenwa.

    He could try not diving for a start. You could see the soles of both his boots before the opponent even reached him and then he trod on the opponent to get the contact.

    Well.... it is a football forum, so I don't mind the debate even if it can't be settled. But I get your point. Speculating is one thing, but there were people acting like they already knew Puel was a failure when they didn't (and still don't).

    It was a booking. He was diving before the player even reached him. HE was caught after he had already started simulating.

    He did step on him. Foul the other way if anything.
