Tough on Bilic but they probably have a better chance of staying up now, no better man for this type of job.

The sum total of WBA's ambitions is to stay in the premier league. That's Sam's bread and butter.

Good set of games on Amazon Prime Video just now.

Leeds and Newcastle are drawing 2-2, Everton are beating Leicester 1-0 and Southampton and Arsenal is level at 1-1 but Arsenal have been reduced to 10 men fr the second match running. Those Arsenal players are doing a good job of getting their manager sacked

Steve Bruce gonna be under pressure after Newcastle lost 5-2 against Leeds.

Brilliant header from Firmino gives Liverpool the three points against Spurs and takes them to the top of the league.

Mourinho's anti football in the 1st half got exactly what it deserved. Great performance by Liverpool.

Mourinho's anti football in the 1st half got exactly what it deserved. Great performance by Liverpool.

Perfect illustration of how much the game has passed Mourinho by. Liverpool are there to be got at at the moment and he sat back despite having the two most on form attackers in the league. Pathetic stuff to be honest.

Also a perfect illustration of why Spurs will realistically be nowhere near the title race.

First bit of daylight at the top all season.

 

[Geezer]

Liverpool are a miles better team than Spurs but because of lack of fit defenders and Spurs having Son and Kane they were always in it

 

[Bandit]

The better team on the night won it. Fully worth the victory.

24% possession and 2 shots on target for Spurs. Only managed a pass every 40 seconds or so and even with the that they only found their man three out of five attempts.

Premier League clubs have voted against allowing teams to make five substitutions per match for a third time at a shareholders' meeting on Thursday

Some managers must be worried about their jobs as we enter the busy festive period - Arteta, Wilder, Bruce and possibly Hodgson after today's drubbing?
