    I would predict a thrilling 0-0 draw

    I can just imagine it. 0-0 with 10 minutes left. Stoke bring on their secrert weapon, Berahino the Super Striker, and it ends 0-0 :D

    You nearly cocked it up again! ( Seville, Arsenal.....) Still no defence or keeper ( 75m on an injury prone centre back!). Easy win for United tonight, so still 3Rd! ( Sorry Bongorob!)
    'Fab Four ' won't win you anything on their own!

    I just hope Hughes gets a new job before the end of the transfer window. He can then buy Berahino. He must surely go down as one of the worst strikers we have ever had, and he has some stiff opposition - Keith Scott, Dave Kitson, Kyle Lightbourne, Wilfred bony :eek:

    But we didn't ;) Sound very jealous pipaluk! :rolleyes:

    If you cannot celebrate a good win then whats the point. Yeah probably wont win anything this year but could be worse I could support Everton where the manager wants them to be more boring.....:D

    Why would I be jealous of a club that having made the 80s a misery for me haven’t managed to win the league in 28 years? They've only come close once in that time too haha!

    I'm well aware of the facts! Don't understand why you ' get a laugh out of ' your club not having won the league for 28 years?! Strange!

    Everyone at the bottom is winning apart from Stoke. They are doomed. 5 points out of the last 12, can't see them staying up.

    I thought you were going to complain about the ref (again;)). Charlie Adam was clearly fouled near the goal line after his penalty was saved - so that should have been a red card for the defender and another penalty for Stoke. Commiserations.

    Mr Madley is a decent and fair ref. As for the other penalty appeal I think he got it right, the Stoke forward fell.

    @gentle lemur, what do you mean, complain about the ref :p

    So Paul Lambert's record, one win in 5 games, not really good enough.

    Not good, only Pardew's record is worse! You've got Berahino, 2 years today without a goal, they've got Sturridge who is equally useless! Think you're both going down I'm afraid along with one from Swansea /Palace / Huddersfield

    I agree, Stoke left it too late for change. Hughes ought to have gone after the Man City game, conceded 7 and all he could say was that Stoke were the first away team to score more than once at the Ethiad. He has left a lasting legacy of injury prone players for Mr Lambert to sort out. Stoke has improved but with 3 points for a win, draws are not much use when all your rivals are winning.

    Berahino has been a complete waste of money. Some fans say he needs a chance, he has had many chances, and don't forget this "striker" could not even score from the penalty spot.

    Mark hughes is the favourite for the manager's job at Southampton. I thought Southampton FC wanted to avoid relegation. :D

    If he gets it I hope he buys Berahino in the summer, he seems to
    be the only person on hte planet who thinks he is any good.

    @ pipaluk:

    You wrote "Klopp´s last chance of a trophy gone"...

    What about winning the Champions League? I think, they will have a Chance this year, they are always good against the big Teams (like Dortmund was in ancient Klopp times)
