So I check the BBC live feed, and after a positive 35mins, they feel they need to just insert negative / pessimistic twatter and text comments. If we play like this in the World Cup, we will definitely make the knock out stages.

So much better than any of the tosh we saw under Hodgson.
 
Probably the best Gaston ever played for us. For whatever reason, we rarely played him that deep again though.

I remember the day clearly until the celebration in the evening wiped out the night.

Beautiful sunshine, quality atmosphere and a come from behind win.

Gaston, the what could have been. The goal that was cruelly robbed from him against Arsenal.
 
The most frustrating thing about the first half, for me, was the number of times Young could and should have gone outside his full back,but he chose to keep turning inside onto his right foot.
I think Bertrand would have loved the space to get in behind, that Young is squandering.
