All I'm seeing every week is a player not cut out in the slightest for the Premier league. Needs to leave whilst he's still young and can forge a decent career in a league more suited to him.

Not today mate.

I agree with you previously but today he was a real outlet down the right, and helped us wrestle some control and pressure in their half.

Griity little peformance which we badly needed.

Liked what I saw.

Alex Scott didn't seem to celebrate his first Prem goal too much. It seems like he's a proper hard core fan, which could bode well for us in a year or two.
We should have bought him this year. In a year or two Levy won’t pay the price Bournemouth would want for him. Like Eze and Olise before him another missed opportunity I feel.

Sarr & Veliz hammies to add to the list now, either this style of play and training is too demanding and/or our medical team need binning off!
Veliz was an impact. He went for the ball and kicked a Bournemouth player. Dunno what happened to sarr as they never showed it. Too busy showing random shots of crowd etc but he walked off fine just upset he may withdraw from afcon

Ah fair, from my seat I couldn’t see what happened to Veliz I thought both he and Sarr did their hammies.

Commentator reckons it was a knee injury to veliz. But it was efan okoku so who knows. They showed a replay of the impact though. Dan KP says he was seen leaving stadium on crutches with a leg brace

Went to game and in the south stand which had a bit of atmosphere but overall was fairly quiet I thought. Not much singing, chanting etc
Stayed on ground floor for a pint after it as was hoping there would be a bit of a celebratory atmosphere like earlier on season but not much going on. Shame overall but maybe people just heading to new years eve plans?

Apparently Olise has a £60 million release clause. He'd be perfect for us. If we get CB sorted this window and add a CM, we'd then just need someone with X factor in the final third, to have a really good crack at things next season. But he'll go to City or Liverpool unfortunately. He seems too obvious a choice for us to have a chance. He's once of the stand out players in the league this season and has the bonus of being homrgrown, so you'd imagine pretty much every top team will be after him at that price. We got Madders though, so you never know.

Real mess of a match but delighted with the result.

I hope our supposed interest in Solanke is plain wrong. Hopeless striker.

Not always pretty to watch, but we made the best of what was a makeshift starting eleven.

Played for each other, and this on a heavy pitch.

Mentally draining, but the lads kept on going, kept of trying to add to the lead against a very in form side.

Forgot to mention, Woolwich imploded with Rice setting about his team mates, glorious to behold.

Three points off top, players soon to return from injury, likely CB in next week!

Happy New Year!

COYS!

Ban this muppet Ekoku from the stadium

Disregarding the commentary, this highlights one of my biggest issues with Hojbjerg. Veliz has been practically hopping around in agony for 3 minutes straight, but Hojbjerg decides to play the ball to him in a counter attack because it's a slightly easier pass for him than playing it to Son, one of the league's best counter attackers.

Probs people had their minds on new year mate and weather was shite, but agree I was also in the south stand and atmosphere wasn’t the best, Ange and the team deserve better from us.

True mate very true. Think nerves had a part, I know I was nervous watching it as let's be honest we were lucky enough to get the win given the amount of possession we gave away.
Fucking delighted though and first match with wife in new stadium so happy days

Wasn't it refreshing that with all our injuries Ange selected an eleven to go and win the match. A year ago given a similar injury situation Conte would have played Skipp and PEH and set the team up not to lose. I love this change in our approach

Home from the game and I think I am more pleased with this win than I have been with any this season because I genuinely didn't think it was on, everything seemed against us facing the form team.
Started well but levels dropped and we were having to hold on up to half time.
Second half we played a bit longer and created a brilliant chance for Richarlison which he really should have buried but that actually broke Bournemouth's confidence and they dropped off their press after it and we punished them like a top team should.
A great boost getting Bentancur back and Destiny Udogie was terrific but Lo Celso wins my MotM, he just took responsibility for leading the fight and driving us on, best I've ever seen him in a Spurs shirt.
Good team performance all round superb result and a happy Worcestersauce!
HAPPY NEW YEAR SC
COYS!

It was the right ball played perfectly, he clearly didn't know Veliz was as bad as he was I'm not sure anyone realised he was that badly off.
