I wonder if Sam is playing Jarvis to put him in the shop window.

Noble was giving him a lot of stick last night. Really laying into him.

The Noble Tomkins spat started after a long ball coming in near our box was allowed to bounce by Tomkins, letting Lukaku get on it, and produce a goal threat. Noble gave Tomkins verbals, Tomkins gave some back, Nolan got involved, and then Tomkins clearly said something that infuriated Noble, as it looked for a minute that he would chin Tomkins.
I'd love to have heard all that.  That sort of thing is a bit like a goalkeeping howler.  At the back of my mind when watching the football I'm always hoping that the oppo. keeper will make the biggest fuck up of the season, or that the opposition's two star players will get into a fist fight leaving us playing 9 men.  Sod's law says that its gonna be our lot who fight each other, and Adrian who kick will be 180 degrees from the correct direction off a backpass.
