Yes, we usually are better in the second half, and it's nice to see it being the case again.
Potter looked dazed and baffled by the end.

Agree, they went for Ballard late on, but it was a game with no dives, pretend injury or ref arguing. Great that VAR wasn't involved either
Hope Callum Wilson enjoyed that one 
First time in his career he hasn’t scored on his debut for his new clubHope Callum Wilson enjoyed that one
****ing beautiful! Isidor's finish so much better than I thought it was!
Mayenda never scored a header that good last season....
But of course Ballard does that for fun....
Isidor however is just Isidor and he makes it look so easy.
And the prophets declared we'd struggle for goals...well not today thank you.
PS......Reg must think this English football lark is pretty easy....HTL.

Or the racist over there with the Enoch Powell avatar. I’m sure he is delighted with our transfer window. HTLs
Then strikers won’t score in PL they said……
****ing Vamos! !!
****ing Vamos! !!
Since the EPL began every team that has scored at least 11 points in their first 10 matches has stayed up.
Some stat that.

Back home. Wow that second half man. It was incredible to see us settle that well as a team. Great that the goals were scored by lads who got us there.
Picking MOTM is fairly hard. Ballard was outstanding but Sadiki was everywhere.
Such a great feeling

All saying the same
west amm are honking
Says it was even first half and we dominated the second. I’d say that’s a fair analysis.
Back home,
We were solid first half and unbelievable second half.
How good was everyone? So disciplined amd everyone knew their roles.
Get the **** in

Exactly what I said to the lad sitting next to me.
We wondered if Ballard, Hume, Mayenda and Isidor could step up. We got our answer today. Aldarete looked a class above when he came on. Great debut for Reinildo, Diarra and Sidiki. Xhaka played within himself - nothing flash, just kept it simple. Talking and putting an arm round all the players. Captain Fantastic!
Hopefully, Seelt's injury isn't too serious. Thought he had a steady game before he got injured, although I have to say, he'll struggle to get back in if Ballard and Aldarete play like that every week.
Both wingers did their job well defensively, without looking dangerous going forward. However, it was Adingra's grittiness that forced the corner which led to Eli's goal.
I'm putting this out there. Thank **** the pole and Petrovic turned us down. Roefs was ****ing class.
Well, off to get my throat lubricated now after singing myself hoarse. HTL!!!!!
