Do you want West Ham to win to help with any relegation fears or Burnley to help us climb up table

When we get to 35 points, I might start thinking about results for position. Besides, be nice to see the Ginger Dalek taken down another peg or two.

Need to get 3 more wins before I take my eye off the relegation situation.

So a West Ham win, please.

Win for the Irons who then go in to the Wednesday fixture complacently and are subsequently turned over by us.

I dislike Burnley. Their playing style is all about aggression and not letting football happen. It comes from their manager, who has done well to keep them up for this long, but he does football no favours in doing so.

Tom Heaton recalled for Burnley, Joe Hart left on the bench. How the mighty has fallen. Maybe we could get him in for January?!

Much as I admire Sean Dyche, I dislike other aspects of Burnley FC far more. West Ham win please.

Last 2 seasons Pope and Heaton probably won Burnley about 20 points with brilliant saves. Perhaps that was part of their success last year. All those 1-0 wins have dried up

So what has happened to Pope?

Injured, shoulder problem. He'll be back in the new year, potentially a loan move out to the Championship depending on whether they will want to keep Hart. Personally, and I accept I'm in the minority now, I think Hart is a quality goalkeeper behind a good defence. He's made more saves this season than any other goalkeeper in the league, I don't know how much more he can do for them. I think if he was protected by Duffy, Dunk and friends, he'd be knocking on the door of the England squad again. But I wouldn't pick him over Maty Ryan.

The booing of Bong really pissed me off. It’s time for them to have some time in the Championship, they have made the mistake of not investing enough in their squad having massively over performed last season.

I’m confident their survival hopes will be killed off by Easter. And if they sack Dyche, they’ll not be bouncing back for some time either.
