    That's not a particularly good example though, considering the press are currently using pretty much every football article they can to have a pop at Mourinho, even ones not even about Man Utd.

    I can confirm this. Even though I don't speak a lick of Japanese, the pundits on tonight's Yokahama Marinos vs Shimizu S-Pulse match haven't mentioned a word about the teams or game...it's all been about Mourinho.

    Full name please. It is well known that Harry has the same middle name as Winnie Pooh, Zorba Greek and Ivan Terrible.

    Of course, Mr Fonz had it as his first name.

    West Ham's forum must be as tongue in cheek as ours...

    "No disrespect to Wolves, but this is one we really should be winning".

    An inevitable clanger from Allison today, trying to be too clever again and it’s only taken 4 games before it’s caught him out. An outfield player wouldn’t get awway with it every time so I don’t know why he thinks he will.

    Mind you, if anyone has seen ‘those videos’ of him he may have been distracted by the white lines the touchline is made out of.

    Looks like Capoue did more damage to Zaha than we realised. I can only imagine the strain put on his abductor muscles as he catapulted through the air having been felled by the beast known as Ettiene.

    Palarse fans are asking for the FA to hand out a firing squad.

    As others have said if we beat spurs, which we won’t, the media willl turn against us. They’ll need to think up some way we have cheated to beat one of their darlings. Probably go down the Capoue and the team are dirty route

    If we beat Utd, and that is more possible, I don’t think Mourinho will last much longer, their fans won’t stand for it

    Palace look terrible. Benteke trying to fulfill the Zaha role but his dives are too obvious.

    Sounds like he got injured in training.

    Will they blame the training pitch?

    Looking at their match day forum they were cackling themselves when it was confirmed Zaha was injured.

    It sounded as if Benturkey missed some great chances to score.
    When will owl Woy drop him?

    Bit crazy that if we win tomorrow we'd have won four on the trot at the start of a PL season yet almost certainly be 3rd.

    So Palace's appalling record of not having won a game for ages without Zaha continues (a 90th minute winner against a piss-poor Sunderland on September 24th, 2016).

    The very definition of a one man team:D

    Everton already reliant on Richarlison. Another goal conceded today from zonal marking at a corner. Also, just one shot on target for the toffees, compared to Huddersfield's six.

    I recall quite a few WHU fans saying they would be at least 7th this season.
    They may still be but it looks unlikely at present.
    How long before they go crawling back to BFS?

    A few of them saying the honeymoon is over for Sliva, they seem to think Richarlison is the answer to all their problems.

    What’s their problem?

    Everton are 7th which is clear over performance.

    As one said, 1 win and 3 draws against average teams. I think they were expecting to be 100%.

    This season, Everton are an average team so they are ‘trading in line with expectations’.

    One poster was hoping that Silva will be teaching them how to defend corners. Keep hoping, wack.

    (Do you still call each other wack, Toffee?)

    MOTD love Fulham. So desperate to commend Fulham’s ‘great’ 4 points in 4 matches and -2 goal difference, Shearer says ‘yeah, great start, they’ve got a win and a victory’........ no Alan that’ll be a win and a draw.

    Although Bournemouth have lost theirs and we might not keep ours today, let's not forget the other teams who have a 100% record this season - Liverpool, Chelsea and.... West Ham ! :D
