Slight concerned about his eye today, looks like a nasty infection or something.

Looked like a sty to me, my youngest daughter has just had one. Few drops of antibiotic cream and he'll be right as rain in a couple of days.

Didn't he have one earlier in the season, too?
Usually occurs because of low immunity, stress, tiredness.

I had loads when I was about 13/14.
I'd discovered wanking.

As late as that Frank?

I think the eye inflammation is because he keeps finding himself seeing us lift the title in May and then rubbing his eyes to make sure he's not dreaming.

It's all the time he's spent watching video playbacks of our defending against Man United. I nearly had the same watching MOTD afterwards.

This was a good one from the other week, after beating man city. It's stuff that we all know because we watch us every week, but probably not obvious to those that don't.

Excellent analysis that.

What a wonderful manager. No matter who, and I mean whoever,  is sold or bought, I trust Emery to keep on improving the side.

Or not vote for him as we all know he is manager of the month and it normally comes with baggage.

Did any team go unbeaten in December? Liverpool maybe? If so, Klippety will get it.

We might have beaten Citeh and Arsenal in the space of four days but the judging panel will point to the Boxing Day collapse. Unai will be gutted, no doubt.
