I think this could be a very important result for us. Obviously a needed 3 points and home win. But I think the quality of the Boufal goal has most likely changed the way people think of him. Pellegrino surely has to give him a run in the side now and let's pray he makes the most of it and adds that creativity we have so desperately missed.
I kept an eye on the match via the BBC text. Reading between the lines Saints kept their heads in the face of an obdurate WBA side, and no doubt considerable unrest from the fans. Well done as WBA are never an easy team to turn over unless a team possesses the skills of Manchester City.
Lemina performance very similar to what he did for us at Palace. So good at tackling and intercepting! Romeu doesn't look quite the same player so far this season?
Also, credit to MP2 for changing things up a bit with the team and brave subs, it paid off. Ahhhhh the relief.
Right, I've cleared the beer off the floor and had to resort to another computer after a small explosive moment when that went in. Worth it
Well that goal made it all worthwhile. I wasn’t actually bored by us all game though, I thought we looked a decent team up against a horrid Pulis mob. Everything felt more positive. Two things - One is please can we start Boufal in the 10 slot. Two - I know he didn’t have much to do today, but I have no concerns about VVD playing.
Love Boufals reaction to MP they just showed there in his celebration. Looked very much like 'thats what I'm about, leave me out now'.
Amazing goal by Boufal. WBA came to defend and nothing else Forster still needs dropping Gabbi is still great Yoshida had a good game
Agree with every word. Decent football by us against one of the most defensive sides we will ever host. Virgil almost back to his imperious best, and looked great coming forward.
