Re: RIP Jack Markham - Walton High

Re: Jeff Hendrick

Hendrick played as well as he can, very committed and typified our hard work and effort. Even as a right midfielder he's limited and a little reluctant to get crosses in the box. With Chilwell out it was the left back area Leicester were most vulnerable but we didn't exploit it enough. Had Gudmundse...

Re: Venice

Barnes because he had 3 yards to make up had to adjust. Fletcher great goal too but was right underneath it and had more time. Though it was against Leeds so an extra bonus point for that too!

Re: Graham Poll on Joe Hart penalty ..

The fact that Hart repeatedly comes tearing off his line suggests he's out of position in the first place. And it's probably one of the reasons why Guardiola didn't want him at Man City because he sits too deep
