The Football.....

[AndyRM]

Seems a tad harsh. I watched the game yesterday they didn't play badly at all. Benteke is woeful though relying on him to bag 20+ goals a season is going to be tough.

It's a mad decision by whoever is in charge of a club that makes Newcastle look relatively level headed.

I rated Benteke when I first saw him, looked a proper footballer, but his career seems to be going badly wrong. Whether that's poor management or lack of application remains to be seen.

Appointing Roy Hodgson as a troubleshooter is about as desperate as it gets.

Indeed he did a proper old fashioned striker he seemed. Not sure what went wrong. After 10 mins of the West Ham game though they look a different team with Carroll up front. If him and chicharito click that could be interesting,

The Irons' title challenge is back on track.

The Irons' title challenge is back on track.

Still possible after only four games.


In theory, anyway.

Almost out of the relegation zone too!

Almost out of the relegation zone too!

We're lulling everyone into a false sense of security

Thought we struggled against a good huddersfield defence.Bit of luck with the first goal but a win is a win.

Still got lanzini and Arnautović to come back so hopefully things will start looking up.

They turned to him after failing to entice Allardyce back.

Champions League at Celtic Park, and I'm taking my bike.

Perfect.

Perfect.

Long night ahead methinks, and almost certainly the end of the unbeaten run.

Really enjoy these cartoons by Dave Squires, especially this one ripping the mickey out of Palace, and especially Klipperty Klopp.
