    Excellent first 4 minutes and it has all gone to the recurring pile of ****e since. No urgency, no real shape, no rhythm, no fluency. Alli and Kane utterly anonymous. Dembele doing his best but Wanyama hasn't been at the races so far. Best chances of the game have all fallen to Sunderland.

    I'm at a loss to explain why we can't string more than 2 passes together if it isn't in our own box pissing about with the ball at the back.

    Poor all round, but Son and Kane have been non existent.
    The former proving again that he's best used as an impact sub.

    Dembele our best player by a mile.

    Poor performance so far. Still should have had a pen and a red but the ref bottled them. The red was right under his nose too. It'd be nice if we got the odd freekick too.

    EDIT: Just seen the Arsenal score! Someone PLEASE explain to this group of overpaid young men that 3 points is CRUCIAL.

    The few times we've got balls up to them quickly they've been in each other's way.

    Son is rubbish when he starts a game...only looks dangerous when he comes on as a sub (which makes him several levels above Janssen).
    Kane is non existent tonight, we are not looking dangerous, are slow and ponderous and look more likely to concede than score. Dele and Eriksen are being stiffled and we are allowing them to drag the match into a kick fest.

    apart from that it's all going to plan!

    It could be worse - you could be Arsenal :emoticon-0136-giggl

    The meltdown season has started early for them.

    Liverpool's Mane got up to warm up as a sub and has had to go back to the bench to have either an ice pack or heat patch put on his knee...lady luck likes to kick you in the nuts when you are already on your knees!

    Yeah, he's hustled well and even got involved in attacks pretty decently.

    We have gone back to playing like we did prior to the chelsea match in November. Although we lost that we have upped out passing speed, movement off the ball, width etc but today we have shown none of that. Get Son and Eriksen off ... they are bloody useless <grr>

  16. That idiot mason was 10ft away from Rodwells assault on Dembele. Ludicrous decision considering Roswell should have already been in the book.
    We have been poor but that could be a game changing decision. :emoticon-0121-angry

    Wouldn't write them off in that game, yet.
    Watford are appalling defensively. Might be worth a punt.
