Sure he looks dangerous, if you have a seat in row z...

He is not total shite, but he hasn't done anything to justify playing on the weekend, and we will seriously regret not selling him on this past summer.

He's worth a lot more than Lennon for sure. We won't be able to give him away

I was actually a bit concerned with Fazio tonight, looked really unsure. A lot of people (myself included) were wondering why the hell he hasn't been playing in the league but I think tonight we've seen why. Kaboul or Dier with Verts for me at the weekend with Naughton in at RB.

I think Bentaleb was poor tonight but some of the comments I've seen on FB about him are hilarious. Just because a 21/22 year old kid has one bad game there's no need to get rid of him.

I posted this an hour ago and got 4 or 12 funny responses.
I fucking really really hope we never ever ever start a home game with 1 fucking striker ever ever again
What poch has to realise is he hasn't got the personnel to play his system, at saints they had a great focal point in lambert then pace guile and creativity around him who all pressed the ball so well. We don't have the above do he needs to be brave enough to change it. The price you pay for not investing in the players your manager wants

Amazing the impact of two academy products has on set of below par internationals talk about heart and soul found it within hope Poch takes note.

Certainly going to need it in a abundance on Saturday from 1 to 11 every player has to be on one hitting top level. A draw to me there would be a miracle don't know about a plan B for Poch needs more of a master plan not starting with that CB partnership against WBA would be a start I wonder...COYS!

Especially when he's 19.

I like Townsend. He's still very young and raw, but he keeps going without letting his head drop and gives a threat to our attack. He went close to scoring tonight with one of his shots and had a part in our second goal. I'm very optimistic he will end up being a success for us. Just needs to develop his game under Poch, improve his decision making, when to pass and when to take a shot.

What's our midfield 4 if we play 442?

Won't happen, but...

Loris
Naughton, Verts, Dier, Davies
Lamela/Lennon Stambouli, Mason, Townsend
Kane, Ade

... a positive side, attacking, skillful, energetic, big goal threat. I'm a big fan of wingers getting crosses in for two strikers, Man U of the nineties style. Makes the game more exciting too.

Not going to lie I missed the first 1 hour to watch Bake off. Great goal by Ryan Mason, and was really happy for Bobby. I just hope we pull our socks up for the game against those filthy gooners.

Liverpool need penalties against Middlesbrough
Chelsea scrape through 2-1 at home to Bolton who are joint 3rd bottom of the championship
We beat the Championship leaders 3-1

It's not so bad is it? BTW I heard that had Costa played they may have got 6 tonight. He gets injured and Chelsea might struggle for goals. Here's wishing...
