Subs: Vorm, Davies, Wimmer, Carroll, Chadli, Winks, Clinton I give it half an hour before we're begging for Carroll or Winks to get on the pitch...
Mason is a top player, was playing really well when he got injured scoring, very bravely. I have faith he will get back to his best and I hope it starts today.
I really hope you're right SD. He's given me the impression - and I have total sympathy for it - that he isn't quite committing to the tackle like he used to, probably for fear of getting injured again. His introduction against Chelsea was meant to add some more bite to the midfield and help us regain control, but it did the exact opposite because, well, he looks a bit 'timid' recently.
Another early example of an intentional foul not being given, due to us playing on. Might've been a booking if he went down, too.
Big call for a handball from the fans near the incident. Can't see it being given at that range, though.
That's very good stuff from Son. He's started this game brightly. Crowd reacting well to his attempts to gee them up, too.
