    What's that? Jaunmi forces a save and Romeu scores? Gimme a job Ron!

    I suspect Vic was carrying a knock and he brought Romeu on so we wouldn't lose any control defensively (as we did vs Liverpool) rather than looking at him as an attacking change. That was Juanmi.

    Worked on both fronts though!

    Villa looking tired and we are starting to open them up, which looks more encouraging.

    Can we now have a long argument about whether he is a goal machine or not. Yes he is no he's not .

    Having rescued a point against a team cut adrift in the table, let's not give it back, people.

    And that is why Koeman favours Yoshida over Cedric defensively. That should have been 2-1 to Villa.

    Long on. Makes sense.
    Mane off. Slightly odd call.

    Time to get Kelvin on up front. We've had a bloke score his second career goal. Why not have a bloke score his first too?

    Ok, Long on now.

    Does he? 12 league starts for Cedric suggests he prefers Cedric doesn't it?

    Yoshida's sporadically started three games at right back in the whole season! Cedric's started the last three games at right back for example and 12 in the season.

    Either way both of them are far too suspect to giving an opponent a clear cut chance and need to wake up <laugh>

    No he hasn't! Yoshida started against Man City as you have complained about before.
    Ps. I agree neither have been great.

    You're right. I thought the Stoke game was after the Manchester City one. Mainly because I've tried to forget either of them happened.

    The first referee to give us a pen for holding at set pieces should be knighted.

    Whilst good to not lose, not beating villa at home is a disgraceful result.
