Assuming you mean Berge for one of the Cullens?

There could be an hour left. This is so predictable

Give it a rest - not so long back you were calling people out for their “negativity”, you can’t have it both ways.

I suspect that timeframes will be difficult to put on his return. Even if there are some targets in place, it’s unlikely that updates will be provided, and rightly so. Do we even know if he is ‘at work’ and therefore training? If not, it could further lengthen the time taken to get anywhere near to ...

I’ll be sorry to see Cork go, when the time comes.

He’s been fantastic for us over his three spells.

It looked like Kompany instructed JBL to tuck his shirt in, during the first half, presumably to make it more obvious when his shirt was being pulled, which it was on a number of occasions.

Either that or VK is a stickler for having a well presented team.

We played a poor side we will both be relegated

Bloody hell, you’d win the lottery and moan that it wasn’t a double roll over.

I called him out at the time, for some of his posts (don’t recall any racist ones). BUT, I think it’s right to say that he was a young lad at the time - he likely regrets some of his behaviour on here (back in the day) and now he’s far more balanced. He’s obviously grown up and if people stop dredgi...

Berge is not a dynamic player. You can see that in the games he’s played. Given time on the ball he can play in this ‘pivotal’ position as you call it. The reality is that in too many games he won’t be given this time and I’m sure VK knows this. You see him as a one dimensional player , I see him b...

DCWat

I’ve not seen replays but my view in the ground was that both were red cards. That he got sent of for two yellows is ridiculous.

I’ve given up trying to work out what VAR does and does not get involved with.

DCWat

If we can avoid being bullied, which won’t be easy, 2-1 to us.

Don’t do that and it could be a frustrating 8th defeat.

Looking forward to this one - hoping it’ll be like one of the many good games from last season in the championship.

It was more of a rarity last season, with our fantastic record. This season we seem to have been loosing to everyone!

DCWat

I’m sorry but that is the last thing we need. We need experienced, streetwise pros, fully grown with fully built bodies. I do agree that we lack some experience in key areas. However, our midfield and defence has looked so poor this season (at times) that I wouldn’t be averse to at least bedding Ma...

Sorry to hear this sad news.

Probably in part due to my age at the time, but Euro 96 remains my favourite tournament watching England.

DCWat

Even ignoring his ability as a player, we don’t half miss someone with his sort of leadership credentials. Perhaps more so because we have such a young squad.

DCWat

With all the warnings of what not to do or say, on the big screens, I was surprised to not see a “please don’t wave your flags” message.

DCWat

He needs better alongside him. We need better alongside him.

DCWat

Sacking Kompany would be an absolute ludicrous decision. The board and the fans bought into his way of playing and have had more good times than bad. This seasons recruitment has been a disaster at best but we probably still have a team of walking the championship. If we have to take another step b...

DCWat

It’s signings in the right positions that are desperately needed.

I was hoping that we might be within touching distance of safety, come January.

We won’t be and that will make January mightily difficult to attract the type of players that we need.

Its become a right old mess, unfortunately.

DCWat

Clearly he did though because half the main players who we had last season either left, injured for the majority or simply not good enough atm. Jay not good enough Taylor not good enough Cullen not good enough Roberts not good enough Brownhill barely good enough Al Dakhil not good enough yet Zarour...

Been saying it for weeks. We don't have the players because we have a manager who has spent the budget very badly. He needs to go. It's embarrassing. I wouldn’t go that far but I would love to understand his thinking in relation to the summer business. Shame we don’t have any journalists willing to...

DCWat

It’s telling that Luton, LUTON, are five points ahead of us and managing to pick wins up. This is a team that was light years behind us last season and has spent a fraction of what we spent in the summer. The performance today wasn’t bad but that defeat is on Kompany. Hindsight not needed as we were...

Of course he goes straight in. His absence has seen him become more like Beckenbauer than Beckenbeyer.

If we voted that way, for a rule in place for January, does this suggest we are near to some sort of deal, or more of a strategic vote, thinking longer term?

Can’t wait to get this lad back in the team alongside Beyer. If Vincent sorts out the goalkeeper problem also we may stand a chance of picking up points.

Is Ekdal really the answer to our defensive woes?

He’s as raw at this level as the others.

Wales equaliser with an OG from Roberts long throw

Which we have never utilised in all his time with us

Not correct - we utilised it under Dyche and have even done so a few times recently, under Kompany.

It’s up there with one of the most ineffective long throws that I’ve seen!

DCWat

We need a fillip or two - whether or not we finish above them, it drags them back into it. Let’s take that as a positive.

Whether Everton are a relegation rival or not (and judging by points per game so far they're on course to win 44 points which would see them finish with 34) this makes it much more likely we will finish ahead of them. Simple as.

Not if your using PPG it doesn’t.

Got to love a mitigating factor being a need to sort their “non existent midfield”.

I have to say I'd have preferred him to O'Shea, though we never know how prospective deals are worked out.

That looks a no brainer, at the moment.

DCWat

He does lack a bit of pace, but he has the talent to make that less of an issue. I’m still hopeful that he’ll do well at this level.

Benson is more of a concern - he has the skills, pace and ability. He just seems to either be made of glass or perhaps a bit to ready to succumb to minor niggles.

Definitely don’t try chocolate covered flapjack.

I took one to Sheffield Wednesday away 09/08/08. Not only were we walloped but said flapjack was confiscated on entry, in case I decided to throw it rather than eat it.

The confiscation annoys me more than the result, now!

I don’t think there’s a cat in hells chance with Dier because he’s very much part of Tottenham’s squad. Not offered a new deal, I don’t think. The only minutes he’s had this season have been in the last two games and because of injuries / suspensions. He will be off in the summer, on a freebie to w...

His absence leaves a massive hole in the squad and one that we will struggle to fill - his performances this season have been one of few real positives.
