Always liked Pav, he just needs games. Great on Saturday, but it doesn't seem to have changed his mind about leaving...

Pav should play from the start gainst Fulham, but 'arry has his favourites so no chance of that, Pavwas great on Saturday not only for his goal but his allround game if Bae (who I thought was our best player) had ben a it more professional in the last inute and passed it to Pav we would have got through as he would have played time out by the corner flag.

GIV PAV A CHANCE !!!!

We have to give pav good chance,I think hi is fantastic player
