    It was the night he drugged you and then... Well, I'll let Tash explain.

    Enjoy the game?

    You must be one of the only people in the world to have ever seen Obertron score a hat-trick.

    I don't imagine he scores that many. Really enjoyed the game. It was worth going just to see Mbabu. Very impressive.

    What sort of defender is he? Strong, stylish, good in the air, good reading of the game/ positioning, etc?
    What about Satka alongside him and Aaron's? I've heard good things about them too.

    He is definitely strong, and times a tackle well. Pulled off a couple of very timely ones to get us out of trouble after sloppy play in midfield. He was also very good going forward and wasn't afraid to take people on. Didn't see enough of his heading tonight to comment. But of all the ones on the pitch, bar Obertan and Bigi, he looked like he wouldn't be out of place if called upon. Satka had a quietish game I thought. Had a Mike Williamson moment giving the ball away but seemed good in the air. had a decent run forward but then realised where he was and panicked. Aarons seems very very skillful. Scored a cracking goal, but needs to learn to pass. He has a bit of the ben arfa's about him at times but not on the same level. Beat players well but didn't use the ball quick enough quite often. That was my take anyway.

    Sounds promising. It was Mbabu's 18th birthday today too according to nufc.co.uk

    18th today?? If you'd said 21st today I'd have found that more believable. In that case he's very very strong and level headed on the pitch for his age.

    Obertan with a hat trick. Blimey.

    Don't forget Xisco got one for the reserves earlier in the season.

    FIFA were experimenting with a new goal that continually moves sideways all along the touch line. 3of Ober's (head down) runs off the pitch happened to coincide with the goal being moved in front of him.

    If he'd been half decent as a striker he'd have had 2 hat-tricks tonight!

    Were Palace really poor then? How come all the chances fell to Ober and not the likes of Gilliead?
