Was at the game last night. A few observations rea
1. We would have won but for a slip from our 3rd choice goalkeeper.
2. Defence was pretty solid. Like the Dier/Sanchez combination.
3.Apart from Dele I thought the team worked hard. Mourinho is getting a high workrate from them.
4. In my...
We have a back 4 all of whom want to leave or Poch wants out. Needs to find a way to give game time to Sanchez, Foyth, KWP and Dier. I would give Poch few months to sort this out. If he can get some pace and motivation into the back 4, even if the results are not great, he can turn it around
Was at the game. Poor first half. Much better 2nd, with TOB pulling the strings and scoring a very good strike. Thorpe looked good when he came on. We were vulnerable to breakaways, and they missed a pen when Oluweyami brought down their striker, and should have been sent off. But we created...
I for one was proud of the team tonight. After the first 10 minutes I thought we might fold, but we ended up in touching distance of a draw and carried the right to them. Once Eriksen and Alli are fully fit, and with Winks looking very good, we can still have s great season. And Sissoko is...
Bring in Sanchez to a back 3. Drop Kane & Dier. Play front 3 of Moura, Lamela, Son. But as for midfield, we don't currently have a single player in good enough form for the CL (or the Prem). Poch needs to do some magic there.
Gave it to Son. He was involved in 3 of the 4 goals that came while he was on the pitch, and despite a few misses was a constant threat, and in my view the main player to put us into that commanding lead before he came off. Harry was great as well, and difficult to argue against someone who...
I thought we played well last night. Let's take the positives:
1. I've never seen a 10-man team so completely dominate an 11-man team. Great strength of character, bodes well for the future.
2. No more Thursday night football - will definitely improve our chances of a top 4 finish. We'll be...
Agree. It could still go badly wrong next season, but on the whole I'm mildly optimistic that we have someone who can build the club so that we can punch above our current weight. 6th place is about where we should be, in relation to our financial position, but with so many young players -...
You say 'Davies and Dier are incapable of producing in an attacking sense',
but didn't Dier supply the cross for the first goal and the through ball for Chadli's goal?
