Change is coming. Huge overhaul I expect. Although I believe Puel will stay. Hopefully we get this takeover (whomever that may be) done soon because the last thing we need is an owner reluctant to put any more money in and possibly more likely to sell our assets.

I can't say I know much about his role at the club. Did he do a good job? Was he just dealing with admin or did he have any influence on our fire sales?

Something to do with a takeover bid perhaps?

Tadic's conversion rate is far too poor to be our regular taker. He doesn't have the bottle.

No. Jay Rodriguez has never been near the standard Caceres can be. That doesn't negate my point about Stephens learning from him at all.

Injured. He hasn't lost his ability. There's no doubt in my mind that he's better than Yoshida and Stephens. I believe we should always play our best players. Stephens would probably learn a thing or two from Caceres.

It's not wild at all. He's proven at Champions league level. Even without much game time this past season, he clearly hasn't lost the ability. I saw him first hand as he completely dominted the U23's game vs Chelsea.

Yes but he's better than what we have. He should be playing!

I'm baffled as to why this guy continues to remain on our bench when our current pairing have let 18 goals in over their last 10 premier league games. Supposedly, we had one of the best defenders over the last 5 years of serie a sitting on our bench today. What exactly was he brought in for if not to play? Also, if these rumours about an extortionate appearance fee are true then that's a very poor piece of business indeed.

Personally I think we should be employing 'Craig David - 7 Days' as we walk onto the pitch...

Chelsea have comfortably been the best team at St. Mary's this season. They deserve to win the league for sure. Having said that, all the pressure is on them so who knows what performance we'll see. Will it be the crap we saw against City or our superb display at the Hawthorns? I'm glad we have Romeu back which should make a big difference in the middle. He protects our weakened back four which is going to be vital against the players Chelsea have.

It's not completely crazy to say we could catch Everton if our form continues but 8th is where we'll likely finish at this point.

Did Pulis snub Puel at the end there?

Perhaps Mourinho is giving Shaw an ultimatum to snap him out of his mental block? "Stop being so tentative or play somewhere else". Either that or he's a c***

No. Price may go down though

All he had to do was retire here and he would have gone down as one of the club greats

So Austin still not back? I wonder what Puel will decide to do up front...

Makes me nervous. I'm pretty content how things are regarding ownership and investment.

My preference is Tom Heaton. I believe he's the best English goalkeeper at the moment.

He was better than Yoshida today.

Very disappointed.

He must play tomorrow!

Caceres taking the mick.

Boufal is trying a trick at every opportunity. Perhaps some complacency creeping in?

Caceres looking solid.
