We've barely created a chance in 2 months. This team is lucky to be only 2 points off fourth. What a shower last night was. Why do I keep getting up early for night games?

His panic reminds me of Andy Cole when he'd had 2 touches and not shot yet, the idea of actually thinking about what to do next killed him.
Exactly this. You'd think I wasn't used to Valencia being at his greatest when he doesn't care about keeping possession and embarrasses players by using a simple move and delivering quality into the box.

Fellaini obviously wanted christmas off

Massive win for Salop today, out of the relegation zone and just 1 point off 17th now. Bury away on Friday is huge.

Funniest comedy creation in years, is Rodgers. How the guy who plays him does it with a straight face is beyond me.

Have to say, its a perfect textbook header. The technique is impressive.

Of course we all feel sorry for Stoke defenders, just a shame it wasn't Huth.

It was good of the pundits on MOTD to gloss over the fact that in each of the 3 incidents Everton should have had a penalty.

Sheffield United are the most overrated team about. A point flattered them.

Still top, unbelievable really

Swindon, Sheffield United, MK Dons and Notts County all in a row, best run in years.
