When Gabby left the pitch he gave a little smirk of 'You're taking me off' can anybody think of a single decent thing he did today because i'm struggling. The commentator also said he looks overweight.

Won the free-kick we scored from.

He went down like a sack of spuds i thought. I guess that counts though.

I think we will finish on 39 points. Safe for another season and not much else.

It was the one time he really cranked up the gears. I think as much as anything, Gabby just looks like he's running on empty. He's been overplayed, as has Weimann.

As much as many on here, myself included, don't rate Tonev too much, he was lively when he came on. Okay that didn't result in much, but he's got plenty of energy to burn and speed. I'd be playing Tonev and Albrighton for the next couple of games and take Gab and Andi out of it.

Gabby shouldn't be on empty though, he's only played 26 games this season. And at least one of those was as a sub. A max of 25 start as we get to April shouldn't have much of an affect.

What I will say is, we've lost 4-1 to the worst Manure side in a long long time. This probably was our best opportunity to win in some time and we've missed it.

How many has he played on the spin now though? I do think he's not the only one, a few more need a rest. Weimann has played a hell of a lot too. Maybe for some of these players and all the mindless running we do when we go into headless chicken mode, means 5-10 games on the spin takes its toll. Tonev, though he might not be very good, was a bit of breath of fresh air, largely because he was brimming with so much energy that Gabby (especially) and Andi seemed short of.

I will say, and it's been pointed out too, that Gabby looks heavy set. He's got a bit of Barry Arse going on too in all honesty. I don't know if he's been out at the pie shops with Holt, but he's looking like he needs to shed some timber, which could also be contributing to him looking decidedly lethargic lately.

Finishing with 2 points less than last season will see Lambert out the door and deservedly so. I reckon we'll get 44 points which might save him.

4 games in March, 3 in Feb, 3 in Jan. That is why I don't buy the overplayed thing. Weimann maybe because he has played most games when fit and could need a break because he's still young.

I cant see him being sacked. Why would they talk about a new contract? I'd say our peak this season was following a win vs Norwich with the home win vs Man City. We were very healthy in the table at that early stage, its been total crap ever since apart from 2-3 decent results scattered amongst the shit. Its been during this piddling run that the contract had been discussed showing just how content Lerner must be with this joker. I cant see him being sacked.

Gabbys played 10 league games in 2014. What's that? Less than 1 a week or something.
