Sign him up now! Him and Coloccini were the best players on the pitch by a mile! a tad disappointed with the draw but I honestly thought before today we would lose it 1-0 or 2-1 tactics are p*** poor at the minute, once they went down to 10 men it was far to easy for them, was no tempo, no movement, the game was played at walking pace for the large majority and our central midfield was very ordinary and showed once again why it needs heavily invested on. MoN is a top manager and a smart bloke surely he can see it, we cannot play it with no tempo across the midfield and let them get everyone back in position, we need to play a quick game get the wingers high up the pitch and get them running onto the ball and that will free us space for Fletcher and Sessegnon in the middle.

Apart from one mistake, he kept Benny very quiet. The lad is a talent. I do think he will end up back at Spurs though and look to force his way in. Would be a coup if you snatched him up.
As qwop says, Danny had a hand in the mags goal but apart from that put in a hell of a shift imo. Overlapping runs & getting forward at every opportunity. Would like to see him at LW tbh.
agree with this, we certainly need to see if we can make the deal permanent in January, wonder if we will go back in for Strinic, Strinic at LB and Rose at LW, McClean has been p*** poor so far
Aye, that's the sort of thing I'd be looking for. McClean has been poor all season, that's true but he had a better game today imo. Worst player on the pitch for us was Sess, the lad just doesn't look like he gives a flying ****.
Sess produced a couple of nice flicks and the odd pass but the problem is the way we are playing there is no space at all for Sess to produce his best, if we stretch the pitch, play at a quick tempo and get the wingers high up the pitch running onto the ball it will create a load of space for Sess in the middle.
This, our style atm doesn't suit our best player, defo needs sorting. Rose was brilliant, especially at the back, HBA was quiet for large parts due to him
I wonder if its due to fitness, so far this season for the majority of games we have looked really tired after 70minutes as for HBA, I thought he looked totally disinterested, done absolutely nothing, seems like he is like Robinho was at Man City, outstanding at home and goes missing away
What's good is we aren't losing much ground on the teams around us despite not playing well, with a game in hand! We really need to get going soon though
Better get an offer in before Daniel Levy starts asking silly money. Well, he'll already be asking silly money, but soon he'll be asking Carroll/Hendo silly....
Except when we scored Agree OP re Colo and Rose, head and shoulders above anyone else, he is really impressive.
Are you blind? he spent most of the game defending which according to the media he doesn't ever do. Rose was your best player but that doesn't mean much 2 shots on goal includeing the own goal when you had a man advatage for the entire match
Did anyone else notice that the mags fans were booing every time Rose got the ball?? He was xcellent today. His "hand" in their goal was actually not a bad pass but the recipient slipped and that opened the door. Colbacks' best game for us for a long time. Fletcher looked off the pace but we looked far better when Sessegnon went off and Saha (he's a bloody good footballer him) came on we looked much more dangerous. Time for 4-4-2 IMO with Sessegnon on the bench
