Doucoure. Love the man.

Enjoyed that. Like all the ex-players on the pod, he seems like a genuinely nice bloke.

At this point my expectations are so low I'd even be happy if the club appointed Benitez at the end of the season.

Yep, clap him. He's a bit of a plonker but I'm grateful for both what he did while he was here and the massive, massive profit we've just made from him. Like Stones really.

Mad Mick Madar.

Like others here I'm relieved he's safe right now and gratified to read all the support he's getting on here. Sending the lad nothing but good wishes and hoping we'll be singing his name loudly on Saturday!

Great, great player, absolutely idolised him in a blue shirt. Don't like him much on the telly though.

Was quite happy until reading this. Fuming we can't take proper throw ins now.
