Manuel

Stood in Currys, I wondered what on earth this was...

Throwing his arms around Jesus in the box is a risky game to play. Got away with it this time but we can't have that every time the striker gets the wrong side. Obviously decent and with poltential though.

Ha, she mouthed "Play up Pompey" at 16:10. [edit: As someone previously mentioned on the other thread]

Yep, the only thing that let him down, the completely unnecessary yellow. His passion is part of his game but he needs to stay on the pitch.

Beeb reckon £5.2m Villarreal compo. Shouldn't be too difficult to be an improvement on Gerrard, you'd think. Wonder how much Arsenal will look forward to Villa away.

Said another way, "Leggy Arsenal succumbed to the superior fitness of a well drilled Southampton".

It'll be Caleta-Car wrestling with Jesus and Saka penalised for collapsing when he feels a hand on him.

Even Arteta celebrated it.

Whatever Ralph did/said at half time made a difference to the team. Proves that the players are still playing for him and he hasn't lost the dressing room. Don't think I want to see Theo on the pitch again though.

Feels like a win

Lyanco, over commits, the odd lunge but so entertaining to watch and has a bit of determination about him. Can only get better.

Maitland Niles looking decent going forward

Right, everyone behind the ball now for the next 80 minutes

Just when we were looking terrible, that happens

Like Van Gogh is the enemy, or art itself. Idiots. Waste of soup too.

Wrong thread for it but I have recently finished enjoying reruns of all the Cracker episodes and wondered whether Robbie Coltrane was still alive and if he was doing anything. Googled it just a couple of days ago and it seems he'd turned into a bit of a recluse, lives alone and recent pictures of him showed him as appearing quite frail. Not very sympathetically I remembered those New Years "Who's going to die this year" threads that we used to post on and I thought he'd be a good candidate. He died today. Sad news. I liked him on the telly.

Thought Rashford's goal yesterday was rightly disallowed after seeing the replays, harsh as it seemed.

Random strangers who appear from nowhere to help when your car needs a push.

I've given up on it. No enjoyment whatsoever.

Not surprised Bertrand's form slipped away but, unpopular view though it might be, I thought Vestergaard was improving and was still pretty decent when he left us and I think we miss some of his long ball distribution.

5 subs, get the new lot on.

If Ely stays on the floor there, ref shows a yellow

Jim Royle will be happy with the scouser in charge.

Ralph: “He is a very good player on the ball, but he has to learn that our game starts when the ball is not with us." Needs to work harder I presume.
