Just got back myself. A great evening out and jolly nice to get another 3 points.

The first half was utterly dull. From where we were sat, we could see Son was tripped in the box. Def a penalty.

As far as I’m concerned, and agreeing with what others are saying, richi should be replaced with biss. Richi, Kane and Son really doesn’t work.

The Hoff was great, as was everyone else. Kane had a poor first half but improved as the game went on.

I was saying to the kids that it’s great to be watching the game live and soaking up the atmosphere and energy in the crowds, I do miss watching the games on TV because you do miss a lot. That’s my age showing. Still, I’m younger than some of the older farts on here!

Positives:
Win, clean sheet, Kane scored a penalty after missing one, the second half.

Negatives:
Starting Richarlison injured, the dogshit officials, the first half.

How much do we have to pay to get rid of the newly-bald Paul Tierney?
****ing **** and openly biased.
Did and said nothing about time-wasting until we took the lead.
Instantly jumped on Doherty for moving a throw-in slightly. **** off.

The level of refereeing is truly appalling imho.
Has been for years too...how on earth Clattenberg was considered on of the best referees in the world was a complete mystery to me!
Those two tackles involving Bentancur show how inconsistent he (and most referees are). How was one a booking yet the other wasn't even a foul? They were almost identical.

I don't mind decisions I don't agree with that's life but I hate inconsistency...especially with the same ref making decisions 1 minute apart.

I thought this at the time, but when you are there you think oh well he is much closer than me, but it turns out I could see better from Row 67 than Tierney from a couple of yards who'd of thought it!

Once again this is looking pretty similar to the maps from late last season, especially between defence and midfield as the ball is being pinged around at will

That being said, the data is skewed by the fact that we went 352 early in the second half, hence Hojbjerg looks out of position as Bissouma coming on changed his position. Similar can be said with Perisic, as his map looks good for 352 but not so much 343

The fact we're routinely getting the ball to Son, with Davies, Bentancur and Perisic all finding him clearly makes the difference, while it has to be said we were getting it to Richarlison comfortably enough before he went off

Meanwhile, Everton's map makes it clear just how much we had them locked down

When Pickford is responsible for most of their goalscoring opportunities while Iwobi is practically playing at RB underlines just how little threat they made, which the xG plot makes even more obvious

But sure, we're not tryng to create anything...

Richy out for a while

Kulu not ready

This will probably force Conte’s hand…however, if Moura starts…then we better get used to 2 starters in midfield forever

With the Kings Rd FC kid definitely out, Bonzo +
Richarlison in the balance etc, those PL players who
are WC 2022 starting XI are going to get more and
more anxious about playing now.

I think Conte would prefer to start Perisic over Moura at the moment.
He's spent most of his career as a winger anyway, plus it would give us more options.
I'd prefer the switch to 5-3-2, but even then our central midfield pairing can't play every match.

I think xG is bollocks, but they didn't create a thing after the break yesterday.
Resorted to just hoofing it at the end, which Sanchez mainly dealt with easily.
