We are looking good, if we took our chances the game could be dead and buried. I think Poch has got the selection right at the moment. I know Eriksen cops some stick on here, but so often he gets involved in a play that creates a chance or scores a goal. It also enables us to keep Chadli firing from the bench/part of an attacking rotation with Lamela who has rightly been replaced with Son despite his enormous improvement.

Poch needs to hammer home the professional mentality at half time. Towards the end of the half there were signs that it was all too easy for us and we got sloppy. Need to come out all guns blazing in the second half and kill the game dead.

Yep.

Just send them out totally focused and hungry to get the third. That happens and Norwich heads will be on the floor and its game over.

So crucial they didn't sneak one before HT.

Minds wandered towards the dressing room 5-10 mins early, but job done so far. Norwich have been poor defensively and allowed us far too much room literally straight from the kick off, we have taken full advantage.

Good first half. Attacking well, and norwich are really shit.
Nice if we can get the third to kill the game off.

Wimmer looks ok. Not been tested much. Gives away alot of freekicks and could have handled the naismith situation better. I was shure the ref would give the a penalty after giving us somewhat questionalble one.

God, we look so good it's just ridiculous. The control, the cohesion, the passing, the individual technique, the physicality. And we're not even in 3rd gear.

It really is. All we here every week as why he upsets the balance of the team so much - yet he has a real influence, in some sort of capacity at least, practically every week.

One of the first names on the team sheet for me.

Here you are sir, I brought you an apple and did my homework and next weeks homework too.

Teachers fucking pet.

I really hope the force continues to stay with us this season. Any other year and those mistakes would have been reversed. We'd have given away the penalty and had ours ignored.

dele alli is the new frank lampard

He has the potential to be a much better player than Lampard imo - he has Lampards ability to get goals from midfield but he is more creative than Lampard ever was. Also was Lampard this good at 19? Nope.

An early goal and im sure the floodgates will open. As it stands 2-0 they still have a chance, next goal is crucial. While 3 points is all we really need the more goals the better, we're level pegging with City but have a better goal difference than the rest and come the end of the season it could come down to goal difference, and its games like this when we should take advantage of.

Clean sheet please

Arse and Leicester drawing at HT, you've got to think one of them will drop points come the 90, good chance for us here.

He's better skill wise and faster but Lamps shoot better and had a knack of showing up at the right spot at the right time. Few players in the EPL have "used" their skills to the extend he did.
PS! I hope you did not mean attitude wise ;)

Well it shouldn't...but I would of preferred Stoke to take points off them tonight, would you not?
Both inconsistent sides, both will be battling with West ham and LOLerpool for 5th to 8th I reckon. I hope we're too consistent and organised to get involved in that this season
