tell me about it..i honestly wouldnt relax at 3 nil with our bunch...however tonight as oppose to other matches i dont think we were content at sitting...but we came out in our bloody slippers! its all in the head!
What a bloody awful performance. Strolled to a 2-0 lead and then just went to sleep for the rest of the game. Rubbish. We need to sort out a system that works well consistently when Adebayor's out. We don't have one at the moment. Beat the Scouse, go above the Goons and the other Scouse, plus close in on West Brom, but I'm still not happy.
To be fair, it's not bad luck if you get an own goal and don't put your other chances away. It's poor finishing but we were lucky they weren't up to converting their chances
You could look at the league and talk about how many leads we have thrown away but on the flip side how many matches have we been holding on like that? Still if you told me we would be 3 points off 3rd at this time I would have bitten your hand off.
When we're under pressure like that, Defoe doesn't provide any sort of outlet which we need. I'm thankful for his goals this season, but there may well be other matches like this and we can't rely on the opposition missing all their chances. Anyway, here's another game that we haven't lost with Dembele! 10 now is it?
I agree PnP. I suppose it's a sign of how far we have come that we are moaning after beating Liverpool!
We have a good chance of going third in the next couple of matches. Well,that was better for us than Liverpool and I don't mean because they lost but because they didn't score,we did it for them. So where are their goals going to come from? Not that I'm concerned mind. That was too close and we all agree there's more work to be done. I was hoping for a 2-0 to send us flying,2-1 means some hard fought wins are still to come.
We badly missed Adebayor. Still that's 2 matches out of the way and 2 wins. Need a big performance out of Jermain against Fulham as that will be very tough. Actually does the Europa league count for Ade's ban so he will be back in Sunday?
Bale becomes Liverpool's joint 2nd top scorer in the league! That's cheered me up a bit. Goons lucky not to give a penalty away for a foul on Pienaar, apparently. That hasn't improved my demeanor.
Boy, what a cracking game I thought we'd win and we did, big plaudits to AVB for picking the right team, again I think he's getting the hang of this management lark hope Caulker is fit for Fulham.
Fulham missed a golden opportunity to beat Chelsea the silly muffins so it will be tough.I like their manager but I think we'll edge it. Chelsea have problems I'm happy to say.
Does anyone know when Kaboul will be returning? Feeling positive about our league position considering who we have lost through injury this season, not to mention our other key players leaving/retiring.
Good game. Better than last year anyway! You took your chances, we didnt, therefore a deserved result for you boys
Sorry I'm going mad I completely forgot what day it was. Obviously Fulham on Saturday is the last game of Ade's ban. I suppose winning not playing well is a good sign?!
Sounds like 'pool were unlucky. According to BBC, they had 12 corners to our 1, more shots on target and more possession. Thankfully the most important stat was on our side
