    Great save by Baumann. Bergvall should've buried it, though.

    Our defending is so ****. A better team would have scored 3 at least

    Bentancur nearly giving them an assist. Very lucky.

    He has been error-strewn all through the half.

    2-0 HT

    We've been the better side but have lived very dangerously. Can't see us keeping a clean sheet.

    He's had a few good moments but generally looks like a player who misses 60-70% of seasons through injuries and suspensions.

    2-0 HT. Started well, went to sleep and then nearly nicked another one late on. Could've conceded after it, too.
    You can see that we're trying to manage the energy use and sit off them to recuperate and it's having mixed results.
    I'd love it if we could get a third and then use some of our better academy players from the bench. Probably not though, eh?

    They’re so bad we look good. We look shattered already though. If they have any zip for the second half we’ll probably end up losing or drawing.

    Well, we're ahead, but more by luck than judgement.
    One good goal and a very fortunate one. Could be 4-4 though.
    And I'm afraid Sonny has done nothing to suggest he's found a vein of form.

    He's sort of summed up the side, for me. Done various things very well, then ****ed it up completely.
    Clearly nowhere near 100%, but needs must.

    The plusses are very much in the minority I'm afraid...

    From the BBC live thingy:
    Success this season for me with Spurs would be if I can walk into a room at work and my colleagues don’t laugh at me. - Matt

    If he works in Manchester, he’ll be fine

    Goal difference could be the difference between finishing in the top 8 or not. Need to keep a clean sheet really

    So many of their chances are from our players not picking up players on the edge of the box.
    Probably at least partially down to the lineup, but that's still not good enough.

    Really impressed with Gray! Are there any positions he can’t fill?

    Next goal in this game is key, they score we don't win, we get it and we shouldn't lose!
