Some early shouts for player of the year here, at least among the Tottenham fans...

Ryan and Dylan, Watford: Player of season has to be Dele Alli, amazing skill and English, will bring home the Euros for us.

Adam, London: They'll never give it to a defender, but Alderweireld has been outstanding for Spurs this season.

Speaking of the Championship, there is a mouthwatering Lancashire derby that could have significance at both ends of the table as second bottom Bolton host second place Burnley.

Preston for the play-offs? You can't rule it out because they are on strong run of form in the Championship. Four successive wins have propelled the side, who were probably thinking only of Championship survival this season, to within six points of the top six. They are at Cardiff today.  

Other stand-out ties in the division sees third place Middlesbrough head to Fulham while struggling Rotherham entertain Brentford.

“I’m excited to see him play today (Dimitri Payet), he’s had so many accolades since he’s come here. Someone suggested he plays in the big games, well this is a big game.”

I never thought it could be topped but Samir Nasri's short reign as champion of the worst hairstyle on this page is over.

"Football and clubs have patterns of play. When West Ham play they give midfielder Dimitri Payet the ball. He can execute a pass and score goals.

"Sunderland have the right manager in place - Sam Allardyce has never taken a team down."

“It’s a tall order, Sunderland have been poor, there has been a run of games where they have seen a bit of light that they may be able to drag themselves out of that bottom three.

“Get the ball into areas you hope Jermain Defoe is going to be. He is their only chance of getting out of the bottom three. He’ll score goals if he gets the chance."

David, season ticket holder: I lost my taste for hot drinks at Southend Utd's Roots Hall when the boiler broke and they used lukewarm tap water instead! Welcome to League One football.

Slightly niche, but Peter Ndlovu was my second favourite player of the '90s, behind the great Marcus Stewart.

Huddersfield Town fans will understand.

“People playing against Dimitri Payet have had to change their game. I played with Peter Ndlovu, David Ginola, and players like that you just have to give them the ball and let them do their thing."

Dan from andover: I know it's not football related but at the British gp last year I 'lost' my wife's camera. And spent the build up to the race and several hours after dragging my father in law round silverstone trying to find it and getting a bit offish with the staff at the circuit, only to find it in my bag on the bus back to the car park!   

Strong look from Samir Nasri, who has opted to go for a blue rinse to celebrate his return to training.

Where does he go from that when he celebrates his return to the first team? This, maybe...

“It is a gamble and a very brave gamble to leave Joe Hart out of a final. You have to play your best keeper, and Joe Hart is your best.

“It’s an added strength to have him there for City.”

Chris Sutton
Former Chelsea & Norwich striker on Football Focus

"All season I've been thinking Man City will kick into gear but they've been inconsistent. But with captain Vincent Kompany back they are favourites. However, if you want to win the competition play your best team - they should play Joe Hart in goal.

"Liverpool, even under Jurgen Klopp, have been inconsistent. This isn't his team - there will be changes in the summer."

“Liverpool have got a great chance, when it comes to a final (Jurgen) Klopp will win it in regards of how to set up for a one-off game.

“City should win this game on paper, but on the day Klopp will get Liverpool so fired up they’ll come out flying.”

Football Focus is zipping time forward a little bit by taking a look at tomorrow's League Cup final between Liverpool and Manchester City.

You just can't take your dad anywhere...

Ruby: Lost my innocence at The Hawthorns hearing my dad swear for the first time.

Craig Murphy: My dad lost his dignity at a St Mirren match once. Away at Inverness, ball comes in from the left, and Stewart Kean spooned it over from around six yards out.
