How nice it is to see our injured players back and playing this will help in the run in as we look so much stronger.

Sissoko really is the most unnatural footballer.

He's how I'd imagine Usain Bolt to play for Utd.

Again the commentator referring to the performance as embarrassing before the goal. I'm sorry but most of these players are getting back to fitness, the performance was stodgy but that's about it.

Fucking amount of times we get to the edge of the box and the player on the ball can't see or make the simple pass to someone in a good position around him.
That's why we need more players like Sissoko who take responsibility and just go for goal right? Or am I misreading your point. :D

Pretty comfortable after the 1st goal.

Disappointed with llorente. Been bullied by league 2 defenderz on occasion. Would love to see sterling given a run out

Perhaps harsh on Dele who hasn't really done much wrong but i'd consider starting Eriksen, Lamela and Son against bus parkers in the league.

shame we don't have any kids on bench as be nice to see them given a chance 2nd hlf, but I suppose if this was going the other way I would be moaning for not having back up on bench :)
This is why Poch job is so hard, just get job done and leave Harry, Alli, Eriksen on that bench Poch.

First 20 mins were crap, the goal came at the right time for us just as we started to get the ball down for a few mins and that knocked the early bravado out of them. Since then basically one way traffic.

Depends how much we want to go for it really. Currently we're playing it easy, so some good mixed with a lot of lazy at times, go through the gears and who knows the score.

Lamela and Sissoko both have me asking the same question. What is he going to do next? And yet for completely opposite reasons. Looking forward to seeing Erik challenging for a first team start again. We’ve got some attacking options to be keeping him out.

Lamela best player in first half, Llorente playing just like Jansen with good passing but I just can't see him scoring even against Newport.
