[TheShanklyGates]

Come on Huddersfield, at least get a goal and help us in GD ffs

Your wish is their command

[elsewhere]

Only 3 teams in the league unbeaten in their last 5 games: Man City, Liverpool and Crystal Palace.

Roy Hodgson, football genius.

NOT BAD, NOT BAD AT ALL

[johnj147]

roys got them out bottom 3 

[Nick110581]

Puts WBA in bottom three.

[thelinnen]

Watford are the biggest bottlers going.

Can't see out matches.

[sinnermichael]

If Dyche makes wholesale changes in the FA Cup this season, it's taking the piss. There's absolutely no chance they're going down.

He will do - they aren't very ambitious.

[Bread]

Not the worst trade in the world...

[please, I have my reasons for it but...]

Surely Hughes is toast now.

[Nick110581]

Surely Hughes is toast now.

Who would replace him?

[Wabaloolah]

Maybe so, but it's very likely they'll be knocked out of the FA Cup in this round, so can focus entirely on the league. The schedule thins out towards the end of the season if they can survive this brutal period.

most of us thought Leicester would drop off after Christmas and look what happened. Whilst Burnley aren't going to win the league they could get top 4 with no Europe and no Cup run to distract them if they can stay mainly injury free.

They should be aiming for a minimum of 6th place though and qualifying for Europe which would be an incredible achievement

[Dim Glas]

where's the British managerial merry-go-round score cards, who's turn is it?

[Wabaloolah]

Who would replace him?

Pulis to return?

[RedSince86]

Pulis to Stoke.

Clement will be sacked by Swansea and replaced by Hughes.

[Butter Keks]

Jamie and Harry dream team. Just in time for the transfer window as well, how I've missed the car window interviews.

[please, I have my reasons for it but...]

I hope Stoke go for someone who won't let them play turgid, shit on a stick football again.

There are a bunch of foreign managers who are available (like Laurent Blanc) they have a good squad that should be pushing for 8th-10th yet they are near the relegation spots.

[Marcel]

I'm happy for Burnley, hope they continue this good form honestly. More of a threat to Spurs than us.

[CheshireDave]

Surely Hughes is toast now.

He's bought some absolute shite in the transfer windows. Chased Berahino for 6 or 7 transfer windows and doesn't play him. They just seem devoid of quality in all departments. Bar Butland perhaps.

Chairman is taking a big risk giving him another window.

[PhaseOfPlay]

Ray bloody Purchase!

Shaqiri, Ramadan, Jese, Choupo-Moting, plus they have the likes of Butland, Wimmer, Zouma, Allen & Fletcher on top of my head.

They should be doing way better than they are.

[Redsnappa]

Pulis to Stoke.

Clement will be sacked by Swansea and replaced by Hughes.

Stoke would never have Pulis back. They'd hang the Board first.

How about Red Ron?

[SamAteTheRedAcid]

I'm disappointed Tim Sherwood has been overlooked.

Anyone caught wearing a Gilet in Stoke gets burned as a witch and their head put on a spike outside Home Bargains as a warning to others.

[Robinred]

I was very impressed by Wagner’s interview post match.

He’s very honest, doesn’t resort to scapegoating nor throwing his players under the bus. His team were very ineffectual tonight, and lacked fight and heart. But he didn’t crucify them, and spoke about the season as a whole. Stevie was correct to highlight the lack of aggression, but there’s little to be gained by adding negativity to a demonstrable inferiority complex by Terriers’ players.

He will do well, in particular if he’s given something other than the impossible task he has at Huddersfield.

[deFacto please, you bastards]

Leicester scored goals, they had Vardy and Mahrez who were in great form. They had a midfielder who was dominating the midfield. Burnley have none of that. You can't finish in the top four, by scoring 17 in 17. They aren't getting top four.

Also Leicester kept grabbing points from being one or two goals down constantly at the start of the season, everyone was saying they couldn't sustain that and they didn't, they just stopped conceding

They kept scoring. Mahrez and Vardy.

Burnley have no one like that remotely.

[Thats So Dimitar]

Ya I agree, I just also meant that Vardy and Mahrez were scoring to have them win games 3-2 coming from 2-0 down and stuff at first, they were conceding 2 goals a game for a bit, everyone said their luck would run out and conceding would catch up with them. Then they started winning 1 and 2 nil all the time. Couldn't believe the amount of 1-0s they had in the second half of the season, seemed like every other game.

[Felch Aid]

Burnley will run out of ideas and steam like they did last season and the best way to play them is drop off and let them attack you.

There is no pace in the side and for all the good regimented way his side lack of goals will catch up with you.

They've done remakably well given the schedule but they will finish 8th or 9th.

Wednesday's football

West Ham v Arsenal (20:00 GMT)

West Ham's only win in the past 19 competitive meetings came at the Emirates Stadium in August 2015 (D3, L15).

This will be an unprecedented 42nd consecutive Premier League matchday in which a team led by David Moyes has started in the relegation zone.

Arsenal have won just two of their eight top-flight away matches this season.

[Pradan]

McTominay starting in place of Rashford for Man Utd? Who?

[Xxavi]

Hilarious defending for City's 1st goal

Fabianski

[elsewhere]

looks like every top team except City is struggling for goals tonight

[Xxavi]

ManU have scored one, but have again been saved by De Gea on several occasions.

[elsewhere]

What went wrong for Paul Clement? He did great last year and i certainly thought he'd make Swansea a comfortable mid table team.

[Clayton Bigsby]

wtf are newcastle doing losing to this shite
