    I'm currently sitting in Copenhagen airport on my way back! Never been so excited to get back to my own bed tbh.

    Indeed. It was nothing to do with JWP, it was because Tadic wasn't on the pitch (for the one which led to Fonte's goal). Previously when Tadic hasn't been on the pitch, Davis has taken his corners - and the less said about them, the better.

    But for the last two games, Bertrand has taken-over - which makes perfect sense, as his left foot is surely the next best after Tadic's. And given that it led to a goal yesterday, he even continued to take the next corner from that side even though Tadic had come onto the pitch by then.

    I also suspect that our defending at our own corners has been wayward and keeping Bertie back is one solution!

    Curaçao became the 93rd different nationality to score in the Premier League last night. Am I right in thinking that Senegal (Sadio Mané) and Kenya (Victor Wanyama) were 92nd and 91st?

    I'm fairly certain there were Senegalese goalscorers before Mane.

    Maybe, but Vic was definitely the first Kenyan.

    I can understand the reaction. That is one of the best strikes in football history by a right back. I'm not exaggerating here either. The power, technique and bend on that shot was ridiculous. And it was from Martina of all people

    Haven't read the thread so apologies if already done but is anyone able to put up Ivan Golac's goal?

    Golac's goal was a great hit. But the technique, bend and power on Martina's strike was unbelievable.

    Thanks mate....Golac's goal still sends a shiver down my spine but agree with you Martina probably trumped that being further out and with the bend one to remember for sure.

    Martina's strike has to be goal of the month. Trouble is it's voted for by fans which is stupid.
