Gérard to Villa a done deal I'm hearing. 

Houllier?

Houllier what?  Confused!

I doubt Gerrard is just following around an ex manager's clubs, no matter how much he liked him.

Good for him.

Burnley, the coldest, grimmest place in Britain, have their game called off against Spurs because of snow.

Thought all the Premier League had undersoil heating?

Doesn’t stop snow sitting in a blizzard 

When are we connecting our underground heating?

Shocked it took so long to decide on the Brentford penalty. 

Its no different to the one Hungary got against us

Seems that Toney has been watching Lyle Taylor when it comes to run ups

Proper game in the snow @ Leicester, Lookman has just made it 4-2

Can't remember the last time I've watched a game with this much snow. Looking out for the "Back in my day, we played with 2ft of snow on the pitch!" comments

Have to say i completely agree with Potter here, absolutely ridiculous that Brighton fans booed, wtf are they expecting? 8th in the table, sitting above Man Utd, Villa, Everton, Leicester. 

Brighton boss Graham Potter said he "disagreed completely" with fans who booed the team in their goalless Premier League draw with Leeds.

The Seagulls hit the woodwork three times as their winless run stretched to nine games. Albion - who have never finished in the top half of the top flight - are eighth in the Premier League table.

"I am a little bit perplexed to the reaction in the crowd at the end because the performance was fantastic against a team that like to dominate possession, like to out-run you - they didn't do that today," Potter said.

"They are entitled to their opinions but I disagree with them completely. We are sitting eighth in the Premier League but maybe I need a history lesson on this football club."

These will be the same fans who will have a massive hissy fit when he moves on to a “better team” the sense of entitlement by football fans is an absolute joke.

Brighton are 8th in the premier league ffs.

Leicester fans booed their team after the arsenal game the other week - they won the FA Cup last year and are in the champions league. 

Reminds me of us and people wanting Curbishley sacked because we finished mid table in the premier league.

 It’s absolutely pathetic.

Imagine its once again the fans who dont really have any long term affiliation with either Brighton or Leicester etc.

Instead its those who show up because they firstly want to see Premier League football, and then suddenly want see European Football on a regular basis after a brief piece of success - You can always tell them apart from the rest, as the moment the club in question returns to the Championship, those fans seem to stop attending.

Phil Jones on the United bench 671 days after he last played a competitive game!

In that time he's earned nearly 10m in wages!!

If that is correct re wages then another bit of proof that football is a fuc#ed up world

Has he actually played since he signed his new 5 year deal?

Good player Phil Jones, another victim of Phil Neville syndrome. 

United look like a different team.... 

Well that was frankly ridiculous. Ronaldo was three yards offside but the linesman doesn't flag because of the implications of a goal being scored and him not being offside in the first place. But when the ball goes out of play for a corner to United the flag doesn't go up!

paid for a NOW TV day pass on Sunday, first time in quite a while .. two very ordinary games .. Everton are sliding down the slippery slope and if Tuchel  ever decides to stop showing off by playing his reserves, Chelsea might well win the title 

He did win 2 La Liga's with Valencia which is a pretty good achievement. Also you say it was a fluke CL win, but he did also get an extremely average Liverpool side back to the final again a couple of years later.

Agree that Everton are poor right now though, but they are missing quite a few first team regulars. At the start of the season when they were fit, Everton were doing well.

Oh wow... Norwich just missed an awesome chance to win it in the 92nd minute
