Is it just me, or does taking the ball into the corner never actually waste time? Usually they get the ball back quicker than they would have anyway.

We really needed that win. Stood up well under pressure but came away lucky with those Wanyama and Mané chances. Thank god for Lloris.

A big win and good to see the team attacking and defending as a unit for 90 mins.

We played well for pockets and I'm relieved we saw the game out! We have a while to go but there is something there for us to build on.

Happy with that. Still don't think we were all that convincing, but definite signs of improvement, which is the most important thing.

Sorry, this performance has been an improvement in terms of tempo but it's still way below par in many other aspects

The pressing has improved for sure but it still is too over the top and in-cohesive, we need to pick our moments when to press and do it as a unit.

We have still created next to nothing and half our chances were pot shots... We really need to work on movement off the ball and I'm not sure Adebayor works in this system.

Three points is three points and I can't have too many complaints but I still feel City will give us a hiding the way we are playing.

We were a missed sitter by Mane away from drawing this game despite being the better team.

Like the look of Mason again today though.

Mate please be patient.

We've just beaten, and deservedly so, the in form team in the league.

All the bitching before hand was a joke. Fans have to be patient.

Just checked my Fantasy Football to see Dier hasn't been awarded his clean sheet bonus as he only played 59 mins rather than 60 :banghead:

I see nothong but a Stains win..they look good. Spurs really are boring to watch..see a repeat of the Ramos era of 2008/9 season where we were a joke...

When are they going to ban you for being an Arsenal fan? You come here every week and say the same stuff. It gets boring.

I thought we played well and we had some really decent passages of play. The boys worked hard for each other today.
