I need a stiff whiskey after that. I honestly think we played bloody great that half. First half was good, but second was really impressive. A few players may have silenced their doubters a bit too.
That was a tad tense. Terrific result to get 2 wins from Leicester and Everton....not many of us would have expected that.
Was just gonna bring this up. The commentators showed their complete lack of understanding of football as they went on and on about Long complaining about a fifty fifty when he was clearly pissed at the ref for ignoring the rules!
All it really proves is that we should have signed Sigurdsson all those years ago - a class act from midfield.
Richarlison was non-existent. Our back three did well today and I like the way that one is happy to step up into midfield - Bendarek and Stephens could have both assisted today. We also were a goal threat and deserved the win.
We finally have a team who can win games again, well in the league anyway, and that what counts at this moment in time. Good win, squeaky bum time at the end, I actually thought the ref was fair today, we have had some god awful refs this season. Prowsy did today what we have all been expecting him to do for the last three seasons, win the ball, drive forward and use that lethal shot he has. As soon as he got the ball I was screaming shoot, and the result was perfect. It's lunch time in the States and I have a English pub just down the street that sells Fullers and I am off for a London Pride or ESB and some sausage rolls to remind me of home, and enjoy the moment.
Really good effort. Especially Prowse and Romeu and the others who put in that shift after 120 minutes on Wednesday!
I don't think the referee realised as it was only after a few seconds that Long went down. I think the ref let a lot go today, the only problem was he did lose a bit of control. Oh well, we got the three points so that is the key.
He was mostly fair (until he played 5 extra minutes of stoppage football) but he was entirely incompetent. He let all kinds go which needed dealing with, and ignored a head injury.
4 premier league wins from Ralph in his short time with us. Another 4 wins over the remainder of the season and we are virtually safe. Ralph, where have you been all our lives.
7 points out of 9 in the last three games, all against teams wearing blue. Let's hope we've got games against the Smurfs, Genie from Aladdin, and Sonic the Hedgehog coming soon.
