If you want any back up to this just listen to the scouse love in on BBC1 and the wxxk over VVD. Gut wrenching.

Wenger just said 'persona;;y' I want him to stay, didn't look too confident; smiled when saints were mentioned. Hmmm...

We need a good win for the feel good factor; and games where the team can hopefully get sorted as there are three spare Saturdays otherwise and we have always been worse after an enforced lay off; no need to rotate now one game a week is ideal for everyone and I always like a good FA Cup run can't help it being the age I am… Come On You Reds!!

Jack missed that long ball because of the wind swirling to be fair. But the lack of belief at 1-1 is staggering and the lack of fight at 1-2 disgusting.

No dive; should have been red for JP we really must go for the jugular as they will be shattered in the second half

As I have said before we need another 19 points - 5 wins and 4 draws; and I had started with Huddersfield! Its going to be close…..

That was a real tough read; whatever are you going to write about today??!!

I thought he tried to lift his foot out of the way at the time, and still not sure seeing it back….hardly violent conduct though

TurnSky off after 20 minutes I reckon…..don't let it spoil Boxing Day but at least the alcohol will soften the blow

So wich 3 from many will he perm to play behind Charlie today?

WE have 20 games left, 9 H 11A; we need 38 points minimum, so another 20, which means 5 wins and 5 draws, 10 defeats. So we need to win 4/9 at home starting with the next two six pointers. And the sooner we get to 38 the better. Then Brighton Stoke and Bournemouth; Swansea A; Its going to be a tough run in.

Just listening to JT talking about a Chelsea team 04-06 to beat Man City today, and he extolls the virtue of Didier Drogba; just what we need now and to acquire next month, but who, from where??

ITK friend says he is happy to stay but now the Club (Chinese) want to cash in on him. Going in January

McQueen and Stephens have to play; we just have to score and win!

The only possible benefit would be if it were guaranteed we would stuff them. But if we were relegated, all the better players would be sold, and they would be on a high….

Team as portrayed above except Jack for Maya, give youth its chance please for all our sakes….

We had played better the previous games due to PEH winning the ball and going forward - build the team around him and Lemina now, with 352 Stephens back in as well. Not seen Davis play so bad for months, and Boufal ran into walls all night. That late JWP effort summed up the night for me. WE need a CENTRE FORWARD ASAP!!!!! Someone to hold the ball up and play either Gabbi or CA alongside him

Pour Moi, Thierry Henry, il est très bien

Can we just play our best team at home against the opposition we really need to beat, even if 1-0 in the 93rd

Who is our worst then, used to be Clattenburg?

Amazing goal from Rooney incredible vision and technique Arsenal 5 up now too

JWP injured?

Not just this game but 8 games from Nov 30th to Dec 30th, we will have to 'rotate' even just because of injuries. Cant wait to see Romeu and PEH holding and Davis and Lemina further forward, mouth watering...

So so SO much better all round by all 11 in the TEAM. TEAM I stress not 11 ego driven individuals, so bye bye Redmond, hope he learns from that. As with any win you need a bit of luck, like Dusans dodgy scuffed finish…and the build unto goal 3, but you earn that through hard work. Such a satisfying 24 hours now glowing in a haze of red wine

Clutching at straws comes to mind today….
