Not to worry lads, McLeish is switching Heskey on and off the wing in an attempt to confuse Braga

Trying to stay positive, but we really really really need to start purchasing some players, Downing will definitely be going now Arsenal are in for him too... Give us Nasri please Wenger thx

These are the times I wish I grew up as a glory hunting armchair fan

Frank Rijkaard would show we mean business, his name alone will attract players and lets be honest, nobody manages Barcelona for 5 years if they're pants!

If Ancelotti was still at Chelsea or at a club we would not been having this debate and I think Hughes would be 1st choice.

We finished 9th last season and you really thought we could get Ancelotti.

But Ancelotti isn't at a club, he's out of work and has clearly stated he wants to stay in England. He even went as far as saying the West Ham job would interest him to some degree if I remember correctly.. so.. we get Hughes, Fulham gets Carlo? Good stuff!

I'd like to think he's not on his way here yet.. It's only been a day or so since we knew for sure Gerard would be leaving, unless the board really really did want Hughes from the offset

One thing is for sure, we do need to appoint our new manager ASAP, deja vu of last season is not wanted

SSN are reporting Mark Hughes as favourite now

He's definitely gone back to Leicester - a friend's sister is engaged to his brother, and has confirmed also

Glad I didnt waste £25 to watch this sh*t.. They really can't be arsed can they

Using "they are a better team than us" as an excuse is a mockery of our team, it's a cup game - Do you think SHA went out the weekend thinking we'l give it half a shot they're a better team than us?

We're playing well right now, Man City aren't, so his exact comment of "they're a better team than us at the moment" isn't valid really is it?

"Man City are a better team than us"

Right, which is why we beat them not too long ago when we played a full strength squad.

He also looks quite upset, whether that is anger or worry of job loss i'm not sure.

£50 to go and throw a ball around in the away stands, quality

LETS WAIT TO GO 3-0 DOWN BEFORE WE PUT ON OUR BEST PLAYERS GOOD JOB U PRICK

Lescotts hairline is emotional

Micah Richards has decided to shift to Right wing, as he just realised he can easily run back to his position and still out-pace Heskey

Balotelli just smiled wtf

Houllier made a fantastic decision dropping Petrov and Gabby against Blackburn. They should have stayed dropped.

Agreed. Can somebody please explain the ideal of Emile as a lone striker though because i'm still baffled

Heskey up front on his own = Mockery

As much as they're good prospects, I think we're relying on these young guns a bit TOO much.. This is a very important game, and we can't leave room for unexperienced mistakes

wheyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Up to 12th just a meer 6 point off Liverpool if everything stays at it is

For anybody travelling via train - there is a deal on the London Midland website allowing you to use as many trains as you want for just £10 (half term special)

Might help some people!

I'm sick of shitty petrov

Makouns passing is Gerrardesque
