Gillingham's Dan Phillips, on loan from Watford, has played in 18 matches for the Gills this season (12 starts), and has been sent off three times.

I've not seen the incidents, but he might have a temper problem. Each red has been for two yellows, and in each case both yellow cards were received within six minutes of each other.

Didnt realise Neil Harris is now manager of Gillingham!

Master stroke by Everton appointing Lamps as boss, I think I`m right in saying they along with Arsenal have never been relegated from the top flight, they are seriously in danger now.

After their next two home games, Everton's run-in is West Ham, Man Utd, Liverpool, Chelsea, Leicester, Brentford and Arsenal :shock:

They're in real trouble. No doubt about it.

Hope Lampard gets time at Everton, regardless what happens. They can't keep changing managers, they need to think long term. Let him build a team of young, hungry players and forget about short term success.

At least if Everton go down Lampard will be able to bring in a load of talented Chelsea youngsters on loan.

Having become the first team to clear 90 points and not win the league, in 2018/19, Liverpool could conceivably do it again this season.

Looks crap for Everton, but they've got Wolves and Newcastle at home next up, need a win from one of those. They still have to go to West Ham, Arsenal and Liverpool, and host Chelsea and United.

As funny as it would be I'd be surprised if he gets sent to prison for taking them down

Sure Gylfi will make him feel welcome if he does.

Are you suggesting Salomon Rondon isn’t a long term fix?

Was tempted to put on a Liverpool quadruple before the LC final a couple of weeks back, will be gutted if it comes in! What held them back before was a lack of depth in attacking areas, relying on the likes of Chamberlain but they’ve sorted out that problem with Diaz

Envisage Liverpool’s trip to the Etihad to be huge and if the gap stays the same points wise, even better as it’s a game Liverpool really will have to win

I know Wilder didn’t leave United on the best of terms and we obviously don’t know the details of what went on but found some of the reception towards him yesterday a bit crass, chants of “what’s the score” etc etc

He was the man that totally transformed Sheffield from a bog standard L1 club to a team fighting for Europe in the Prem just two seasons later. Would have thought a bit more respect should have been afforded there

Should that have been a red for ya man in goals for Brighton? If Diaz hadn't scored it would be a red and pen, but was still dangerous play so the goal shouldn't make a difference should it?

BHA on a 5 game League losing streak. Safe, unfortunately.

Clear red, terrible VAR work (no surprise really) by little Stewie Atwell, mind you Mike Dean didn't even think it was a booking :roll:

Not sure there was much difference in the two penalty appeals in the Utd v Spurs game
