Rodders

He's an insecure word removed isn't he? YOU'RE NOT ENTITLED TO START YOU MOANING PISSANT. Carry on like that and he can **** off in January.

Guzan: 8 Holman: 7 Lowton: 6.5 Ireland: 6.5 Vlaar: 7.5 Clark: 6.5 Delph: 6 Bennett: 5.5 Bannan: 5.5 Agbonlahor: 5.5 Bent: 6 KEA: 6 Westwood: 5 Albrighton: 6 Benteke: 5 N'Zogbia: 5 Given: 5 Lichaj: 4

playing better as they grow. We've got tougher sides but also we'll be better too. I'm not worried about relegation, just got to remember it's going to be frustratingly inconsistent for another couple of months.

What. A. Come back. Amazing.

Think I might have said this before, but Three Colours White (the 'comedy' one of the three) is probably up there in my top ten films. That one came through the door yesterday, will be watching it soon enough, and then presumably the red one!

great putt westwood! I think US will still nick it, but fantastic effort today all the same. Woods to be the winner. It's heading that way anyway!

When was this ? just going off the first page comments tbh

If Bent was whiney he shouls shut the **** up. He has been average so far this year, and is not in posession of a divine right to start. However his football today is what mattered and he got us a point. He will start next match and he needs to be a team player. First half: very promising, plenty of good marks Second half - first half hour, dribbling gobshite. Paniced, and the defence were ropey and we lost composure, I didn't see us getting anything at that point. Mercifully we woke up and once we scored we were back to the first half standard and we could have won it. Overall, though have to be content with a point. 4 defeats from 6 would have been very poor. Work to do, in defence and being more clinical up front. Benteke should have some more sub roles before he starts tbh. His profligacy cost us, by not capitalising when we were doing well in the first half. Guzan 7 - fine, don't think he could have done much about the goal Lowton 5 Vlaar 5 Clark 6 Bennett 5 Defence in general, always seems like there are holes around. And the goal was poor from Lowton and Vlaar. Clark was good, but Bennet was ok, work to do, unlucky with the free kick. holman 7.5 good running and good strikes, better passing mom kea 6 - fairly anonymous I thought didn't see much of him. delph 7-seemed pretty good, unlucky with the yellow card, glad to see him improving. Albrighton - 6 started well enough, but faded in the second half. maybe its fitness still needs to return but appears to be more confident, again glad he's back in around the side. gabby 5- where were you gabby? disappeared most of the match. benteke 4- woeful. Held the ball up ok, but **** me it's a young heskey with finishing like that :s get onto the bench with him for a while subs nzogbia 6 - did ok I think coming on bent 7 - does what he does, got the point. bannan 6.5 peah was fine in his spell lambert 6.5 brave call, but whatever happened at half time buggered us up.

not going to blame lambert for the call, benteke and bent hadn't played well together, but benteke had done more previously to this match. However he was well off the standard required. Bent will start again and maybe it's a kick up the arse for bent to not take his place for granted.

did ok, but can definitely improve.

This second hslf has been **** despicable. **** useless spackers have turned into jelly . you wouldnt realise we were losing. Truly **** disgusting. The defence are a shambles and how the **** is benteke still on the pitch? So angry. And theres another **** shit effort.

Generally good. a stalemat against a solid wba side. benteke the major dissapointment. Delphs card was harsh.Can still go either way this but a decent half so far!

Bentekes been awful this half. bent on at h/t

Albrighton has been injured since the summer and only played one summer. I think, especially given new manager and new style to say he has been quite poor is pretty harsh. I know he may not have been great last year, but that was ages ago. Fresh start, personally I can't wait to see how he does.

Albrighton starts, interesting. Glad he's not gone with Bent and Benteke actually.

the fans forced it by staying away. We'd havbe done the same if mcleish had stayed, but all the same the abuse was pretty sad. His family got grief and abuse, including his 13 year old kid at school

yeah this year mclaren have blown 100 plus points for both him and button through mechanical **** ups. However, mercedes have hardly been much better.

will be odd, lewis has more points, but jb is there next season, team orders works how now?

now maclaren is a team I can fully get behind. Button and Perez 8)

ashley cole testified in his defence so at least one will.

chance for Herd?

its actually a really good draw all round. I don't thin any side except maybe wigan can be said to have a freebie. reading have a chance at home to a youthful arsenal side. liverpool swansea will be close, sunderland is probably an easy tie but its a north east derby. It's not a round I'd fancy betting on any of the ties!

swindon away. urgh. potential banana skin against di canios lot, but we should still win.

away - will tak anyone but prem sides and I think swindon would be a bugger of a tie. home - anyone.

Joking aside I reckon he'll do well there. I think he'd have survived another year in the Prem ( not with us! ) so the Aussie league should be easy enough for him to thrive in.
