I walked out of the pub into the garden for a roll-up the second the whistle went (with my spuds mate) and so have no idea who was Man of the Match. But for me, Kaboul was outstanding. I thought he was awesome today, won every header, cleared every cross...... As for the rest of the game.... no way I'm gonna blame Defoe today, if others are. The lad worked his ass off. Hit that damn post, and should've gone down for the penalty with that slight tug. Should've been 1-up at half time with either chance. Whatever's been said about Borini needs putting to bed as well! The kid worked his arse off! A consummate professionals performance! After 90 minutes, +6, I was proud of that performance. I think it'll make the professional pundits on Sky, etc, think twice, (if they do their homework). But tonight, I just want to say, Younes, play like that, week-in, week-out, and you're going to be a massive hero at the SoL! The chance to be a local legend!
Thought he was absolutely everywhere. did fantastically at the back. Would have given man of the match to M'Villa as I've never seen passing like that in an safc shirt before. Should have been signed by arsenal. Thank **** he wasn't. Him and Lens are the future.
He was a beast, and he will stay that way if we keep him fit. People who were writing the lad off after a couple games when he hadn't played for months, well, bizarre. He's a half decent footballer as well, not a mess with it at his feet. If he maintains that standard, he's one of the bargains of the season.
MotM for me as well but today was a real team effort. Toivy was great until he tired. Lens, Borini and JD all put a shift in. Mvila another beast who we need to get made permanent. Only minor criticism today was Defoe missed the chance they took theirs. That's the difference between top n bottom teams. Looking very promising imo
