A few more of your views on Manchester City's signing of Wilfried Bony from Swansea:

Sam Robson: Individually Bony may well be better than Dzeko, but Dzeko and Aguero are a proven partnership, while Bony is a lone striker.

Liam Price: If Falcao is worth £43.5m then Bony surely is worth £30m in today's market?

Mehul Mandalia: Bony not worth £30m? Welbeck and Balotelli were both £16m. Both have barely had an impact while Bony was banging them in.

Striker Matt Harrold got his first-ever man-of-the-match award for Crawley as the League One side drew 2-2 with MK Dons on Saturday.

Nothing unusual about that, except Harrold played over 50 minutes in goal.

Harrold said: "I got pressured into it because everyone just looked at me and said 'you're big'."

Great reasoning.

Liverpool's challenge for a top-four spot continued to gather pace as they claimed a third win in four league games by beating 10-man Sunderland on Saturday, Lazar Markovic poking in a shot to put the visitors in front.

Brendan Rodgers was all smiles after the game but Gus Poyet was quite the opposite, with the Sunderland boss angry at referee Craig Pawson.

The Black Cats had midfielder Liam Bridcutt sent off for picking up two yellow cards and Poyet said in the Daily Mail:, external "The foul (by Bridcutt) stopped an attack and if I'm being honest it could have been a yellow card. But by the same rule Coutinho should also have had two yellow cards.

"You cannot pick and choose - you either referee by the rules or by common sense, and I think the referee picked when he was going to referee by the rules and when by common sense, and that is not acceptable."

A few of your reactions on Twitter to Manchester City agreeing a £30m fee for Swansea striker Wilfried Bony:

Joe Creaser: £30m for Bony is ridiculous, anyone getting flashbacks of Adebayor?

Andy Partington: Delighted with #MCFC signing Bony. Don't get people saying he'll be fourth choice. Think he'll make a great partner for Aguero.

Jack Sanders: Great for Swansea as Bony not worth £30m. It won't really affect Chelsea though as he won't start ahead of Edin Dzeko will he?

The big transfer news of the day so far is the confirmation that Swansea have agreed a fee of around £30m with Manchester City for Wilfried Bony.

The striker has nine Premier League goals this season - the same as West Brom's Saido Berahino and Newcastle's Papiss Cisse.

What do Premier League players do on the evening after a game, especially when they've scored? Go out for a meal with their partner, maybe? Or a night in watching themselves score on Match of the Day?

Stoke striker Peter Crouch celebrated his goal against today's opponents Arsenal earlier in the season by going to a Kasabian gig and crowd-surfing into the arms of a startled bouncer.

"I'd been watching from the side quite reserved, but I ended up getting a bit carried away," says Crouch. "A couple of fellas have lifted me up onto their shoulders, and then it's a case of enjoy it or try to get down. And I decided to enjoy it."

The most likeable man in the Premier League? Read more from Peter Crouch in his interview with chief sports writer Tom Fordyce, and listen to the full interview on BBC Radio 5 live from 12:00 GMT.

Peterborough chairman Darragh MacAnthony embarked on the rant to quite possibly top all rants on Twitter yesterday following the League One side's 2-0 defeat by Colchester.

The Irishman listed 11 reasons why his players had annoyed him during a loss which left Posh 11th.

"Like all fans and our manager, there are many things I have the hump with after today. Care to know them all?" he asked before listing his gripes.

"If Sean Dyche keeps Burnley in the Premier League then he deserves to win manager of the season. Even when they were not winning, there was no panic around the football club. It was good to see."

QPR's dismal away form continued as they lost 2-1 to relegation rivals Burnley, who made it 10 defeats in 10 away games this season for Harry Redknapp's side - a new Premier League record.

All three goals came before half-time, with Charlie Austin's penalty cancelling out Scott Arfield's fine solo goal for the hosts, before Danny Ings grabbed the winner with a neat finish.

Credit to QPR's away fans. How many defeats does it take before people decide their Saturday is better spent doing a spot of DIY or wandering round the shops?

"We have seen signs of Romelu Lukaku's recover in form in the FA Cup against West Ham and his confidence was better for the game against Manchester City. When someone is not scoring goals after someone has paid £28m for them then the spotlight is on them. But Everton have decided to get the balls into the box and into Lukaku more often.

Manchester City's exploits on and off the pitch dominate the back page of the Daily Star.

As they were held to a 1-1 draw at Everton, fellow title chasers Chelsea took full advantage and moved two points clear with a 2-0 home win against Newcastle.

Meanwhile, with transfer targets Wilfried Bony, 26, and Alexandre Lacazette, 23, set to join from Swansea and Lyon respectively,, external it looks like time is up for strikers Stevan Jovetic and Alvaro Negredo.

Manchester City lost ground to Chelsea in the Premier League title race on Saturday as Everton came from behind to earn a fully-deserved point against the champions at Goodison Park.

Fernandinho's scrambled goal with 16 minutes left looked to have condemned Roberto Martinez's side to their fifth successive league defeat. Everton, however, equalised when Steven Naismith's glancing header put them level within four minutes of City's opener.

So Christmas has been and gone. The decorations have been taken down, the tree has been packed away for another year (if they haven't yet, what are you playing at?) and the well intended, if ultimately futile, attempts for a healthy January are well under way.

But on the football pitches and in the stands at grounds up and down the country, evidence of the recent festivities should be clear to see - new football gear.

For Sunday League regulars and season ticket holders, surely a brand-spanking new kit, the latest boots or the humble football will have been high on Santa's list?

If so, we'd love to see the new football gear you got on Christmas Day. Was it what you were hoping for? If not, what did you want and what did you actually get? Were you one of the lucky recipients of a gift from Louis van Gaal in the picture above? Send your photos and tell us about it via #bbcfootball, external

Lloyd Hamilton:, external As a Chelsea fan, not too worried about Bony move. More annoyed that City always planned to keep Lamps all season!

Sam Robson:, external £30m is far too much for essentially a 3rd/4th choice striker. Surely when fit Aguero and Dzeko would start ahead of Bony?

Neil Boughton:, external Not a bad signing for City but I'm not worried. Looks a bit desperate if you ask me, is Bony really worth £30m?
