    Sanogo such a great athlete .. So mediocre on the ball.

    He confuses me.

    I think he's played quite a few nice small touches so far

    With it being the Sanogo show I'd forgotten Sanchez was playing!

    He should have at least worked the keeper. You just can't trust his touch or finishing in one to one situations.

    We're actually closing down very well today.

    Why the **** are we taking so many touches on the ball, what happened to quick 1-2 passes, it's like each player has a need to take 3-4 touches on the ball and then putting themselves under pressure.

    I think we're playing well. Working hard to close them down.

    Chambers and Gibbs have both been excellent.

    The ref is making some very strange decisions in regards to what is and isn't a foul in this game lol

    Good first half, pleased we calmed it down and kept possession for a while as it stopped there gathering momentum. Good closing as well.

    Seems it was a good decision to go with Sanogo.

    Gibbs, chambers and Cazorla all playing very well.

    Only just back from work and seen the last 10 mins of the first half. Great to see us in the lead and I saw the replay of Sanogo's goal, lovely bit of skill with the back heel to put Cazorla into position for the return and good reward for Sanogo to slot it home.

    I like what I saw of Gibbs in those 10 mins, he was looking to get down the wing and was doing his defensive duties well. More of the same in the 2nd half please, but please please please let's not go chasing a second goal and leave ourselves open. 1-0 will do, also it's my prediction so Piskie needs the points <whistle>
