Ok, hate to be negative after a great win.

But surely GB can't keep scoring goals from outside the box to win us games, we at least need to help him by giving him some chances inside the box.

We have 11 games left, and it's unrealistic for us to hope that Bale will do this in all the remaining games. What's worrying me a bit is that we're not really creating that many great chances. Like Taylor's chance that Lloris saved for example.

I'm struggling to remember the last time one of our players has been one on one with the oppo's gk.

Is this cause for concern? If Bale can continue to do this until the end of the season then I guess not but I'd like to see the team creating just a bit more.

Lennon, Dembele and Ade need to up their games. Lennon especially. Get back to form you were in against United please.

The other attacking players (especially Lennon and the striker) should be happy with the attention that Bale is getting/drawing because it should give them more space but instead they seem to be deferring to him too much and passing up responsibility.

On the flip side Bale shouldn't let his form/confidence get in the way, if someone else is in a better position pass the ball.

Ade should have scored today after Sigi hit the post. Sigi then scored.

Caulker could have scored twice.

It's not that bad.
