      that joke about getting the ball impression off his face after the Roma game was really very dry just like him no nonsense.

      Those stats are what I expected to see from Keita. Fair play to Milner, he has been immense.

      Good thing for Milner is he will have a two week break while everyone is on international duty.

      Love James but F**k does he give away some unnecessary free kicks in dangerous positions.

      Funny mate but - as fit as he is - I think some of those are just down to age.

      If you watch him really closely there are times he gets himself slightly out of shape or when the oppo gets him turning and he just can’t recover quick enough. He can look really ungainly and ends up fouling.

      Not a criticism as such - just a part of ageing. No matter how fit you are some of the muscles can’t react as they did  previously.

      Reports saying he could be out for a month with a hamstring injury, hope for a speed recovery.

      Bad news for Milly but in a way might be good news for the team and make Jürgen have a rethink in midfield and have a combination that links better with the front three.

      100% - his graft and ground coverage have been incredible thus far but I think he’s been scrappy a lot of the time too.

      I think he has been over played but that may have been down to Jürgen just wanting to get this intense period of games out of the way with the tried and trusted.

      Of course now there will be enforced changes in midfield.

      Completely - said a couple games ago I thought he looked leggy. Not at top end effort but in recovery / transition.

      Unfortunately for Milly could even have been a factor in the injury.

      Indeed, a fantastic signing for us.

      You always need a James Milner in your squad.

      Congrats on reaching 500 games James. What a workhorse and as someone said before, we git a player that can play 5 positions and we didn't spend a cent to get him.

      Anyone else notice in our last 2 games, the weather was F***ing sh*te, every one of our lads wears the under garment underneath their top except James. He's no cold weather pussy.  ;D

      Yeah I noticed that. F***ing love it - he’s been brilliant for us ever since we signed him. I would genuinely give him another 2 years contract, he’s fit as a fiddle and I can imagine the example he sets to everyone else is on another level in terms of training.

      Spot on mate, am sure his legs would easily carry him another 2 years. Don't think Jürgen would let him go anywhere.
