we all laugh about Luiz, but let's face it, his CB partner isn't any good either. Cahill is having yet another shocker today.

also, Chelsea Kante is half the player that Leicester Kante was last season.

A minor Earthquake or flood is also acceptable. Doesnt have to be anything Biblical but just enough to wipe both teams off the face of the Earth.

But again, this is no surprise. Cahill has never been good enough to hold a line on his own.

When you're looking at CB partnerships theres typically a few different aspects, but you've usually got one of them that really does most of the heavy lifting and the other who does a lot more of the distribution.

We all know David Luiz is not doing the heavy lifting and we more or less should know that Cahill cant.

Say what you will, but John Terry in his prime was always 'there' with that crucial tackle.

West Ham hammered again. That's what you get for acting like a big shot after a single decent season.

(Un)'Appy 'Ammers. They've managed just three touches in the Saints box since HT. West Ham 0-2 Southampton

Final ended up West Ham 0-3 Southampton

If you told me before the season that Milner will be taking Liverpools penalties, I'd have laughed.

De Bruyne out for a month with a torn hamstring. A real shame, not just that he plays for City, but he's been worth the price of admission all on his own this season.

Can they fill that cavern in the Championship? No way they keep Payet as it is (I can't believe they managed to keep him this summer regardless!)

Hey Locke!

How conflicted are you on this? Not very?

Well that's ok. Can't let Bayern turn that 1 team league, into 2.

Haha! That Bayern want to buy Klopp from Liverpool? I'm not too conflicted...yet.

The next "victim" of the Telegraphs sting operation is Harry Redknapp, to the shock of absolutely no one.

yeah those are the names making the rounds on Twitter. Honestly I wouldn't be too shocked if that list was correct. If it is, then there isn't a single foreign manager/assistant/whatever among them ... the FA should really let that sink in.

I'll forgive them if they all are pounding wine out of a pint like Sam.

I have little doubt that Moyes' dealings during his early Everton days were a bit shady, so I wouldn't be surprised. Giggs seems a little more out of left field for sure, but who knows. He wouldn't be the only assistant who was caught (Tommy Wright) or suspected (Eric Black) in all of this and we all know Giggs isn't exactly a quality human being, so who knows. Would be very disappointed to see a United link in all of this though.
