When Saturday comes!!!

First time in years there is a buzz on the Red side of this city.

OGS and Mike Phelan have it all in front of them. Facing Utd now is quite a different proposion to a few days ago.

Come on you Reds!!!!!!!

Ozil was our captain yesterday, and really grew into the game (not that the blokes around me could perceive that). My favourite song at the moment is Alex Iwobi's, to the tune of 'I Like to Move it, Move it", from Madagascar movie.
"Alex Iwobi-wobi,
Alex Iwobi-wobi,
Alex Iwobi-wobi,
Alex I...WOBI!
Duh-duh-duh, duh-duh..........."etc

Good that Citeh lost, and I'm pleased for Yvaine that Man U won.

Spurs gave Everton a hard time today. I didn't expect so many goals, Everton have been tough to beat at home this season but Silva got it wrong today. Credit to Everton fans for cheering Son, what a year he has had.

DS is going to disown me but despite the score I quite enjoyed that match. I can see progress and like to think that next year Everton will be playing like Spurs, no fear and deadly on the attack.
Silva didn't get it right today but we were missing Gana in midfield and we do so need a proper striker.

The commentary (especially gary neville) did my head in today, regarding both teams which is quite unusual.

Anyway Up the Toffees!
Merry Christmas

Arsenal are currently drawing to Brighton on Boxing Day. We're the late game;

what did everyone else get for their Christmas matches?

I don't see anyone but Liverpool winning it now. Unless they have a breakdown and City or spurs keep going and going.

Phew got there in the end!

DS said he wasn't going to watch the match, he lasted less than 2 minutes 😃

Great response from the team, great goals, great result 5-1!

Yerry Mina's first goal was Everton's 7000th in top flight, first English team to do it.

Very happy Wolves fans here. I'm surprised not to see Spurs fans updating here today

Seriously, all my spurs fans friends have said they "looked tired" and on the highlights I've seen they did. How do the Spurs fans here feel about that?

The Christmas period is slightly crazy. From sounds there was chances just wolves took theirs.

Arsenal having a nightmare at the moment.

@BitOutOfPractice. Well done to Wolves, bossed the second half and deserved the win. Spurs seemed content at 1-0 and after a high tempo 45 minutes they stopped pressing and hardly touched the ball.

On to Cardiff Tuesday and then hopefully we can leave the Tranmere game in Llorentes capable hands

I think spurs aren’t the first team this season to be caught napping by a very good wolves side (yes I’m looking at you Man City, Arsenal, man United abd chelsea)

What I find a bit annoying is the idea that spurs could only get beaten by wolves because they’re “tired” and that they’ve been “stunned” by the loss. So patronising

Phew... 1-0 win and a 5 point gap over Arsenal.

Everton that, rolls eyes

Enough chances created but none converted, again.

4,500th Top-Flight Game

So this Liverpool Man Citeh game is going to be interesting.

Pundits saying Citeh HAVE to win, otherwise the Premiership is over??? I'm not sure that's how it works...

I've just bought in the game on NowTV. Hope it's worth the money.

Surprised at the result. Especially how City have been given their results. See what happens now. Still a while to go yet..

No FA cup shock tonight thankfully. Hoping for some suprises over the weekend, would love Gillingham to beat Cardiff.

You got your wish

I did. Was feeling hopeful when i saw how many changes Warnock had made. Overall the Gills deserved it.

Everton made it harder for themselves than was necessary but all credit to Lincoln who made a good game out of it and got a deserved round of applause from both home and away supporters.

I felt sorry for Grimsby but well done Gillingham

Didn’t realise there was a new thread🙈. An Old Firm victory and Jermain Defoe signing, its been a good few weeks for Rangers. The buzz among fans is unbelievable😁

Get in Newport!

Yay Wolves

Millwall away for the next round, the Tim Cahill derby

Disappointed with Gillingham's draw, Swansea away. Good draw for Spurs though.

Can't stand Millwall so hope Everton score lots!

Well done to Wolves another strong performance.

Happy Wolves fan just checking in. Nothing more than we deserved and WHAT a goal from Neves.

Happy with our draw too
