    We've barely played of late. What do we expect. Have we now had like 3 fortnights off in the past 2 months?

    How long before Puel says 'It was very difficult...' post match?

    Considering we got the LC final we actually aren't very good are we?

    A point is a point. Just hope Manolo is back on Wednesday.

    Gabbiadini upfront and first half is a different tale.

    Yep. For all Jays faults, he defends with the group, he puts himself in the way.

    We got away with that. Bournemouth will be disappointed not to win that game.

    We need a clear out. Rodriguez, Long, Martina, Clasie can all go as far as I'm concerned.

    The problem was not responding to Wilshere coming on. That completely overran the midfield and we had no answer. Should have left JWP on and swapped Tadić for Højbjerg.

    That was a bit crap. oh well. No Gabbiadini, no VVD. Bournemouth figured we were no threat in the second half, and we tried to make some changes that didn't work out.

    As time went by I was just glad to get a draw. Should have scored in the first half, but then that was why we bought Gabby.

    Jay had a great first half today. Could have won the game.

    That was a cracking derby, absolutely brilliant for a 0-0. Credit to both teams. Ref was crap. All in all happy with a point.

    Time off doesn't really matter that much for me. As long as we're without our two best players (and the other CB we need really) my expectations are going to be relatively low.

    It means that we aren't playing competively. Less match practise. It makes a difference.
