    Spot on Manx, impossible ‘division’ to call...worrying that we still have to go to Carrow Road, Elland Road, Bramall Lane and Villa Park though...that’s four fixtures we’ll do well to get four points from...though you never know such is the unpredictability of this division and this team.

    Beginning to look like those who suggested resting Mount against Chelsea were right and that Bryson’s ‘not too serious’ calf pull is, as ever, going to keep him out for a while. Lawrence remains an enigma and I wonder how many of those who said last week - ‘no new January signings please’ - still feel the same. That midfield warrior leader is still the missing piece imo...for the fifth or sixth season running.

    MA have to agree about the ref he was shocking Afraid I can't change my mind about Bennett his decision making leaves a lot to be desired and his final ball is invariably poor Add to that he's scored two league goals in five years Lampard may be selecting him but thats because of injuries to other players Mind you at the moment I would prefer him to Lawrence

    RA yes I was one of the one's who said Mount shouldn't be playing at Chelsea Having been at Boro and seen the number of kicks he got of Clayton he was a wonder he could even walk Yes some tough away matches yet starting at Hillsborough They played well in their Derby on Friday Your spot on about the midfield leader we desperately need there are times when you have to stop the opposition playing it Can't always be free flowing attack Midfield is always crucial in the Championship we played WBA without Morrison and Livermore and we ran riot but theve for them back now and they are a different team
