Much as I can't stand Chelsea, my dislike of Manure runs a lot deeper and longer so it amuses me no end to see them plodding along as an also ran. Plus it's very very funny to see that twunt Mourinho look crap. I wonder who he will blame for this result?

[RichardBatchelor]

Poor Manure, what a shame. After all, they are a REAL big club and don't buy success like Chelski and Citeh, cough, ahem...

Do we fancy them FA Cup third round at home..? no, me neither on reflection.

[olaftab]

It's shame he wasn't able to play Ibrahimovic and Pogba for this match....

[olaftab]

or Pogba.

[mr underhill]

it couldn't happen to a nicer cnut

And Ricciardo shunts Rosberg into third place from the off.

Formula 1?!!!!?

We'll have no trouble here. This is a local thread for football people.

I never mention superbikes

Carles Gil has just come on as a sub for Deportivo. Perhaps another case of the right player at the wrong time. At least he's only on loan to them and I hope he comes good.

That goal against Bournemouth was class.

There's an agreed fee, so either he's rubbish and they don't sign him (which is bad) or he's great and they sign him (which would be a shame). So there isn't really an upside for us.

Or he's decent but they don't want to fork out for him and he comes back into a team full of confidence and kicks on from there.

they looked an absolute rabble yesterday

United look in a Liverpool esque decline really, keep spending loads of money on players and management but the team continues to get worse

[Chris Jameson]

Pogba looks a great buy and I still don't think I've seen Ibrahimovic have more than a handful of good games. I must be really unlucky when it comes to watching him.

You aren't the only one. The only time I have ever seen him "turn it on" against an English team was Sweden / England 4 years ago.

However I would quantify it with I don't watch much TV Euro footy apart from the odd matches on ITV.

Gil has done very little for Depor....started their first game but been a sub every since.

Veretout and Carlos Sanchez are doing o.k though....

I think that keeping 2 of those 3, or even 1 would have made sense. All would have done a job for us. Letting those 3 plus Gueye plus Traore wiped out our midfield and left us very few (decent) options.
Something I think Bruce will address in January.
