    That to me shows an improvement and I think we will have learned from our mistakes hopefully. Casilla yesterday went haring out of his area but quickly ran back before he went too far. Although early days aspring for automatic promotion is a must!

    Yep, he’s dribbled past the two centre backs, sent the goalie the wrong way and put a screamer into the top corner of the net.

    It seems unkind to tap him on the shoulder and point out it was into his own goal.

    No and I would recommend waiting until the end of September to celebrate retaining or winning the Ashes. This could be a good series, if the weather holds.

    I was watching the EFL highlights on Quest and did anyone else spot Jansson getting dragged out of position for the goal? He followed the ball, even though there was plenty of cover, leaving a huge space in the box behind him for the scorer.

    Costa caused the problem with his speed, going away from the left of the 3 CBs. Pontus went across because otherwise Costa had a free run. Jeanvier (the right CB) was marking Eddie but his problem was Bamford just behind was also dangerous, the right wingback was too far upfield to get back in time so Jeanvier elected to go close to Bamford (wrong decision but if he hadn’t Bamford was in a good position for a cutback).

    Honestly once Costa was away from his man it’s hard to know what Pontus should have done, if he’d stayed with Bamford he’d have let Costa have a free shot.

    That’s a misconception (which is what the midwife probably said when you were born), I just happen to think ruining our economy is a bad idea and I don’t like Eton educated liars with an excessive sense of self-entitlement.

    But I am to the left of LL, if that’s your benchmark.
