    And he made a couple of gut-busting runs when the ball wasn't passed to him. We'll never know what he'd have done with those.

    I used to think that we could do better than Davis but to think that now can only mean that you're watching MotD highlights or something because if you watch him for 90 minutes then you won't see many more consistent players in the Premiership.

    Only Man United away next. If you let United score from your match thread then you're sacked. :D

    I wouldn't mind betting that he's one of the first names on Ronald's team sheets?

    Thoroughly enjoyed another great home performance. Three league wins, at SMS, on the spin, with a 9-0 score line. Can't be bad.
    So, what formation at the "Theatre of Boredom"?
    4-4-2 worked really well against Arsenal, and 3-5-2 has been a revelation against the Ws.
    Long and Mane seem to be getting a decent working relationship going, and I was surprised RK subbed Mane when he did, as he and Long had just opened WBA up, once, almost twice, in a couple of minutes. But what do I know, when Tadic scores again!
    Fonte looks more comfortable in a 3 CB lineup, Targett and Cedric are both getting into the opponents penalty box, and the Long, Mane and Davis trio is making us look very difficult to defend against.
    Bit part for Pelle, for the rest of the season, based on the improvement up front, and the new addition.
    Exciting times again.

    Have you factored in the compulsory dodgy penalty refs seem compelled to give Manure?

    Good result. One player that has been a surprise to me tho is shane long. When i heard we got long for 12m i thought my leg was being pulled. I mean, 12m for a donkey like long?? but,he has completely changed my opinion of him.i swear he does the running and workload of two players sometimes. Great result today

    He's not an ideal striker by any stretch, but yeah. I've wanted him to get more playing time, because misses aside, he causes things to happen in our setup. Particularly with two up top in the 5-3-2, because he consistently has a player close enough to him to ensure that his runs leave defenders with uncomfortable decisions.
