Huge win for Yanited that, fair play to them, dug in very deep. Beautiful goals from Martial and Lindgarrd too. Yanited need to keep those two in the team for sure at all costs.

Palace beat Southampton. A result significant for the direction both those teams are heading in. Both in a relegation fight now.

KDB is back. Palace apparently risks losing two key players until the end of the season (due to injury - how ironic) in their previous attempts to butcher down KDB.

Still just 2 points clear from relegation though. Hodgson better stay godly for a bit longer.

Yeah even the guilable Guillem is saying that Barca about to offer £97million cash and £35.5million in addons as well! So it seems Barca will get him this window with Scousers no way able to keep him now i don't think. He has played 6 months and proved his worth for Brazil national team.

What do you think about the Alexis Sanchez to Manchester City deal. In Spain they are saying it is almost done (but Spanish newspapers are shit).

I dont see the sense in Coutinho moving now. He will help in La Liga .. sure but thats kinda tied up to a large degree. He has no other real value otherwise.

What are they worried about? That someone else might swoop in if they wait.

Why not just agree terms let him play out the season for Liverpool let him benefit them in the CL and secure a top 4. Thats what I would tell him if I was Liverpool, and I am sure they are. Then he gets his promised move in the summer. I really hope all this news is just leverage to negotiate a cheaper move for later. It doesnt make sense at all.

It's so tight almost everyone is still in it. But that was kind of the point I was making. Southampton have really slipped into the relegation fight and Palace at the moment have the momentum behind them to potentially get out of it.

I'm sure West Brom fans are happy with the progress their club has made under Pardew. Getting rid of Pullis was a great idea. Seriously Pardew has them playing the most defensive football I have ever seen. They will never win a game like that even if they concede less. Moronic decision.

The goober that is Ballague says "Barca president feels he owes it to Coutinho to get him in the winter because of what he has done to try force the move, plus the top senior players also want him now"
But like you say Liverpool lose out majorly as they are down a big player for Champions league / top 4 race.

However on the flipside Coutinho played 0 times during the last saga, scouse might have him go on "strike" again in the winter forcing a move which is just disruptive, he has also proven his worth to the Brazil national side and having a few months off before the world cup might be ok for them? xD

Not been said in the English media, but no idea, i don't think Sanchez is going to be allowed to leave Arsenal this window, i think Wenger will keep him there thinking in his deluded mind he will sign a deal with Ozil very soon xD

I also find it unlikely that a team coached by Pardew, no matter how defensive it plays, will let in less goals than a team coached by Pullis.

The reason he was fired was becasue of style of play. It's unbeliable to employ Pardew instead. There a lot of stupid fans out there and saying whatever manager out has just become popular for some reason. Southampton, Stoke, West Brom are all teams I have heard fans complaining about lack of ambition or boring styles of play and are all now ironically involved in the relegation fight. Dreary mid table sounds a lot better now.

Of course Stoke haven't actually changed manager yet. So maybe they are a bit different. Taking some thumpings recently.

It was great....love when players score who should be sent off..but referee is just to much of a joke to realize, then said player scores a goal.

Dunno about ref, but Morata played far from his average level
It's like Benzema took his skin or something

Yeah that is true, Morata should have had 4 goals, he missed 3 1on1s and should have got his foot the cross from Moses. Awful from him but what can u do!
