Not interested in today's game. We lost Okafor to injury in the last round, and, in my humble opinion, he may well have made the difference in the Sunderland loss. Don't care whether we win or lose, just hope we don't suffer a season-defining injury to the likes of DCL, Ethan, Joe, Pascal etc #lufc

This is now looking decidedly dodgy. If we can't re-discover our scoring boots, & if we go into games as negatively as we did last night, we're in big trouble #lufc

Awful game. Awful result. Suddenly look like we could play for days & not put the ball in the back of the net. If WHU get 3pts tmrw all the recent optimism disappears. Extremely worrying. #lufc

So...WHU have averaged 0.9 pts per game. Regardless of City result we're a min of 6pts ahead PLUS big goal diff going into last 10 games. If WHU continue their ave pts, with a tough run-in, they pick up 9pts & finish on 34. We're already on 31. One Leeds win from last 10 games keeps us up ๐Ÿ˜‰ #lufc

Erm...has anyone seen any minutes from the recent Board for Peace's highly publicized meeting? #iran

Matched WHU points today, on a day they should have gained on us. They're away to Liverpool next, we're home to City. Likely we finish those games with 6pt lead intact, going into last 10 games, where our fixtures much more favorable. Despite dropping 2pts today, we're in a superb position. #lufc

Tried to be as honest as possible. Shocked myself! #lufc

Gonna put it out there...thought Perri was bang on today...won it with his 1st half worldy save & pen save at the end...earned his spot back with Darlow a bit shaky last couple of games? #lufc

Bit disappointed. Don't think we should be risking injury-prone players in this game. Nmecha & Okafor should be wrapped in cotton wool for bigger challenges ahead. That said, in Farke we trust #lufc

My 11 for Sunday: Perri/Byram/Bornauw/Bijol/Justin/Tanaka/Longstaff/Buonanotte/James/Piroe/Gnonto. More than enough to see off Brum #lufc

Forest collectively making Cole Palmer look like a sharpshooter #lufc

Let's be honest, we didn't deserve that. Chelsea far, far better. Astonishing comeback, but Palmer's miss at the end was as ridiculous a gift to us, as Bijol's lunatic push was a gift to them. Crazy, crazy stuff. #lufc

Too quick & too good for us. Need scum to do us a favour. As long as we exit the Man City game ahead of WHU I'll be happy. If they lose to scum, that's a given #lufc

Difficult to pick out any one player tonight - all superb. Okafor finally looks capable of a full 90, Gruev exceptional, Gabby brilliant, Bogle magnificent. Got home games under the lights v Sunderland & Brentford PLUS home games v Burnley & Wolves...I'm predicting 12pts from those & home free #lufc

I'm relaxed about Larsen -ยฃ48m is silly money - but not so relaxed about leaving this window without bringing in backup for DCL & Nmecha. Leaves us vulnerable #lufc

Genuinely reckon by the end of Feb we'll be ahead of Spurs in the table. #lufc

Truth is, folks, our survival equation is startlingly simple: match West Ham's result each week & we stay up. By that measure, it's been a great weekend. Onward...#lufc

Feels like tonight's game is pivotal. Lose & the 5pt gap looks vulnerable. Win and we maintain the 8pt gap AND go level with rapidly dropping Palace & Spurs, dragging them into it. #lufc

I'm not gonna judge Buonanotte harshly for choosing Chelsea over us in the Summer. Remember, we were a pretty much nailed on relegation candidate as a newly promoted side then, & the kid didn't fancy feeding on scraps. It's a compliment to our progress that he now sees us as a viable option. #lufc

I just hope Farke isn't tempted to call on DCL to retrieve this. Get Bijol, Ethan, Ao & Okafor off the pitch and let it go. #lufc

I don't want DCL or Brendan anywhere near the team or bench for Derby. Wrap 'em up in cotton wool, Daniel. #lufc

I'm looking forward to the forthcoming, surely inevitable, press conference, where Gianni Infantino angrily demands the return of his FIFA "Peace" Prize.

Forest lose. West Ham 0-2 down. Burnley losing. Beat that lot tonorrow & it's a long, long way back to us #lufc

Last 2 games - West Ham at home vs Brighton (14th) & Fulham (11th) - 1 point. Leeds away vs Liverpool (4th) & Sunderland (7th) - 2 points. Bodes well. #lufc

It went unnoticed because of the offside, but take another look at DCL's finish - the lad's on fire ๐Ÿ’ฅ #lufc

Wasn't expecting DCL on the bench, tho. Or Justin. Or Gruev. Looks like we're saving ourselves for Sunday.

I'd like to see Borneauw introduced in a back 5 this afternoon. As good a time as any, in a game we're expected to lose, esp given Rodon's absence, & will have Bijol & Struijk alongside to help him. #lufc
