Yeah the result better than the performance at this stage of the season.

What are your expectations for this season?

Sunderland dropped points today which was handy.

I hadn't seen any of our pre-season but had hoped for top half....those expectations were short lived today.

I expected Sunderland to drop points today, Ipswich will be promotion chasing alongside them. Oxford have had a good start, drew away to Sunderland and now beat Posh at home, never expected them to get off to a flying start. Also a decent result for Lincoln at Rotherham.

Could be a competitive league this year.

Blackpool 2 from 2 as well.

Some teams in this league you wouldn't imagined a few years ago would be there - Pompey, Sunderland, Ipswich, Bolton, Coventry.

I'm hoping for automatic promotion but expecting play offs.

You can’t defend that deep against a side like Spuds for an hour and expect to hang on.

Daft tactics from Villa after a bright start.

JChesterUnited: Spurs incredibly lucky, foul in the build up and a series of huge deflections giving Kane a tap in.

<wah>

You make your own luck, that much pressure usually produces a goal sooner or later.

They made hard work of a ****e team but job done in the end by Spurs.

Anthony: That’s why I love Harry Kane, he makes things look so easy, you’d always back him in those positions... WORLD CLASS.

We were forced to win that game by attrition.
 
Well, that game proved that we need to keep Rose, Alderwiereld and Eriksen.
