Bit left field I know, but I watched Lua Lua play for Turkish team Karabukspor recently and the guy was on fire. True, his finishing was profligate but his pace and movement were electrifying, as was his awareness of team mates. He is 32 and would be a stop gap but I reckon he would be worth a shot, offering an injection of pace that we so desperately need.

When they beat Chelsea at the start of December there was cautious talk of pushing for Europe but reality has bitten hard. The loss of Mohamed Diamé to a hamstring injury has contributed to a winless run of four matches …

I’d first like to say that Reading were poor and deserve to be where they are after an opening goal and then practically holding on for the whole game. But it was a great bit of tactics because they knew one goal would be enough. We officially now have an inability to score. We are mid season and three of our strikers have managed to score a grand…

When Allardyce eventually woke up to the possibility that we could actually attack the team that has already conceded 19 goals at home this season, we created three good chances from open play. But until then, the only game plan seemed to be…
