    Hopefully that's just precautionary and he has a couple of weeks to get rested. Please don't let it be a torn hamstring...

    Harper is a decent understudy.

    Hopefully it lasts awhile longer he's ****.

    He's cost us 3 goals already.

    Smacked Torres and saved a penalty in the process. He's forgiven.

    He's also saved more than enough. Aside from the Chelsea penalty, which other two were his fault?

    Negredo's yesterday was reminiscent of Kasper Schmiechal flapping his arms and trying to take off like a bird, in the process knocking them out of the playoff semi final.

    Toures free kick is a bit harsh to blame on him. He's at fault for half the goals.

    Well the ball came across him and he was wrong footed; it was bad defending more than anything and a good header.

    I'd attribute the penalty to him (which he then went on to do and not many '****' keepers save penalties from Lampard; he kept a clean sheet against Norwich and the Man City goals were down to Elmo not tracking back and an awesome free kick that Hart himself wouldn't have kept out.

    He also clipped Torres round the ear'ole. Nothing wrong with the lad.

    How was the keeper at fault for that goal?


    Look no further than Chester and Elmo.


    Shocking defending.

    Probably not at fault, but with a bit of calm serenity around him, he could have kept it out. Agree that Elmo was the perpetrator, it baffles me how professionals can just switch off and let people run free like that.

    The only goal Mcgregor should have saved was the Lamps free kick if you get a hand to it you should save it IMO, apart from giving the pen away which he redeemed himself for hes been outstanding. The Negrado goal was down to Elmo no tracking the run or calling to chester to let him know.

    Elmo watched Negredo run past him! Cracking winger but utter bollocks at defending.

    It has to be a very good save to keep a free header out from 10 yards.

    Something like this <ok>

    Keep note of Stringer's commentary <laugh> He scoops it over the crossbar apparently.

    Great save that, albeit straight at him, much like Negredos on Saturday. I just think McGregor left his line a bit too late, as if he went to punch it when he had no chance reaching it like Kasper did in the playoffs.

    But as said Elmo just left him and had he tracked, the filthy jock may not have had to run out to pressure him.

    How do you feel about Fryatt coming back and Nugent going to Forest? #deadlinedayrumour

    Well there has been plenty going about.


    Nugent to Forest for 2.5m, i'd rip their hands off.

    Depends on the fee for Fryatt. Anything over 500k and we're overpaying.

    We're also looking at Doyle but we won't pay his wages (40k per week <laugh>)

    Also slight rumours of a move for Nakhi Wells (yes please) and Billy Sharp (yes please)


    All in all, we're happy how we are, but if Forest come in with a bid like that for one of our highest earners then he'll go, no question.

    Just hope we can adequately replace him. The latter three would do that, but the former wouldn't and would probably be playing on the bench behind Vardy and Wood.

    I thought Sharp was on his way to Celtic, to replace Hooper?

    Fryatt is better than Vardy and Wood and worth 1 million of any clubs money.

    He's not. I've seen all of them play enough games to tell you that Fryatt isn't anything near to the strikers we've got now.
