  To be fair, i wasn't disappointed with the Cleverley loan initially, but have to say it hasn't worked.
  

  
  More a case of he hasn't worked.  He started brightly enough but has got progressively less effective with each game.  His stand out contribution is that he slows the game down. We don't need that.

• Well based on the first half I'd much rather watch Bristol City play than the Villa.
  
  Why oh why won't Randy sack Lambert! When I'm envious of Bristol City fans it's got bad.

  Gabby is definitely better than Gary as MOTD host.
  

  
  Yeah I'm so in love with Gabby... Oh you meant as a presenter, yeah that too lol..
  
  I think she has that causal sense of humor, and engaging interview tecnique which Lineker had at his best.  Time for a change.

• Looks like it will be an easy win for Arsenal. 2-0 to them 2-0 to us.  Might we have a chance next week?

  Oh no, go for the win but I'll leave happily with a 0-0 in the back pocket.

  If there are three statistics to sum up a weekend of shocks, it is these:
  
  - Less than 24 hours after drawing to League Two Cambridge, Manchester United were the favourites for the FA Cup.
  
  - A double on Bradford and Middlesbrough alone would have won you £2850 from a £10 bet.
  
  - After 14 of the 16 matches, West Ham were the highest-ranked team confirmed in the fifth round, and also the most recent previous winners. They last won it in 1980.

  I think it is the last one that strikes me. They are right up there amongst the favourites to win it too.

  Must say , Patrick Bamford carries himself very well.Well done young man.
  

  
  I heard on the radio that he turned down a place at Harvard to pursue football.
  

  
  Wouldn't have thought he needed to do either.  Bamford is the 'B' in JCB and Patrick is the grandson.
