Not suprised by that. Agbonlahor has got Naughton in his pocket at the moment. Also, is it just me or is Heskey playing in a Hoolahan-esque role?
Johnsons coming off already, replaced by Crofts. Holts been off receiving treatment, Tierney is now off seeking treatment. All on ankles.
Agbonlahor causing Naughts all sorts of trouble. On the plus side just cracked open a bottle of Tsing Tao.
He is causing him trouble, but often becaue we've made a mistake and given the ball away, look fab going forward, but a little tightening needed at the back
And bennett should be supporting him more. Just look at how the wingers for Man City supported their full backs against Utd.
Good open game so far, both sides attacking well, defending for both sides is, shall we say, below par. 1-1 is a fair score really.
Best thing to come out of this game: Bradley Johnson won't be taking (And missing) any free-kicks so long as Pilks is on the pitch!
Overall, pretty good half especially first 20 minutes, but some stupid mistakes. There'll be some bollockings and training ground work next week for the defence. My guess is that is where PL will look to strenghten in January.
