From Sunderland in 7th on 28 points to Bournemouth in 15th on 23 points there's not a lot of difference. Should Spurs and Fulham both win then we'll drop to 13th. Now would be a good time to get going again. Palace win 1-0.

When we were doing ok I would have given some of them more than the cursory 5 minutes at the end of a game, how else are they to get experience? The irony is that now they are getting chucked in at the deep end. Also, if and when new signings come in, they'll go to the top of the pile so the...

Thus it has always been at the club. If we had two first teams we would be up there with Mancester City and the rest. The problem is competition for places - Eddie Nketiah, ex Arsenal, who cost north of £25m, spends most of his time sat on the bench. I wonder what he makes of it? I know he's not...

25 player squad, applies to all teams. Competition for places. Glasner doesn't use his squad, strange given the number of games. Correction: injuries have forced him to use players he hadn't hitherto.

Glasner is our best ever manager, simply because he got the team over the line and put a cup and a shield in the trophy cabinet. That said, I have been thinking how it was a close run thing for Pardew, and looking at his team that ran out for the cup final there are a few in there who I would...

Stop living in the past. Eze is an Arsenal player and Zaha is washed up, a divisive personality when we need unity.

More or less my take on it, although one is allowed to hope for a push onto 8th instead of 12th, I've always thought that this would be a mark of steady improvement. Realistically though, take away the few players of real quality (who likely will be on their way) and there isn't much difference...

Have you forgotten your many posts heavily recommending Nketiah prior to his signing? He's crap btw.

His movement is very laboured. Clearly not the player he was.

He's fishing for a Bentekesque pay rise as well ha ha. Absolutely no hope.

OG should try something different, as the current iteration isn't working for him. We need to see another side to his tactical nous. At the moment it's very one dimensional, right down to the substitutions.

I don't think Glasner has the answer, and some of these players aren't as good as those we've had in the past. I cited Mililojevic, McArthur, and Cabaye, for starters, all better than the current crop. The problem is Glasner's system, or rather his inflexibility in trying something else. We had...

We have some better, Henderson and Guehi spring immediately to mind, but in previous squads under different managers there were a good number of players who were better than we have at present. Roy had some very good players.

This is why Glasner needs to be more adaptable, but he's not. Keeps doing the same thing with the same end result.

It's the system as well as the players. When I think of some midfielders we've had previously who popped up with a goal compared to now I can conclude that Glasner's well has run dry and he should think about a tactical rejig. Jedi, Mili, Jimmy Mac, Puncheon, Cabaye, players who knew where the...

I was looking at Pardew's record, and it wasn't that bad, in fact if he'd avoided that wanky dad dance and instead concentrated on getting instructions out to his team and maybe some time wasting subs then history could gave been very different. However, Glasner took it all the way, everything...

1000 monkeys 1000 typewriters...

Cabaye, McArthur, prime time Milivojevic. This side could do with players of this calibre.

I have a theory, a passing thought, that Uche never starts because the club doesn't want to meet the terms of his loan, and he's just here to fill in the gap in the meantime. Kind of explains why OG picks Mateta (injured allegedly) over Uche but perhaps doesn't explain why Mateta always starts...

Big game for both managers, could be a swap at the end of the season... A draw, I 'm not sure where our goals are going to come from. A surprise maybe?
