The keeper came out so fast and saved from Shola. It wasn't a clear cut chance.

Very poor from Marveaux who contributed nothing. Tiote was shite as well and the less said about Shola the better. What utter bollocks. Tiote put some good tackles in, marveaux didn't get the chance and what the fuck did u expect Shola to do in the time he had? Need to give credit to spurs

We've not done much in the second half TBF. Bale has had a stormer!

Shoooooola 😳

Shit Shit Shit Shit

Shame he's been brilliant. Strong on the ball, pacey n holds it up well. And of course he scored!

What with oxygen n that

Must be a lot worse than it looks.

Tiote on for bit more steel? Plus fouls?

I think they've done ok

Bale having too much. Need to nullify that twat.

Cream mesel

Wooooooooioooooooo

Blessing in disguise folks. We haven't taken the lead!

2 inches off the ground by perch would have stopped that

Fuck

Bring it on u cockney mother's!

Ah there was an error on sky sports. He is in. Marveaux does not start.

What's happened to Gouffran (excuse spelling)?

The bell ends

He is crap. End of

So happy to get 3 points - it was more important to get a win than having a dump after holding it in for a week. However, let us be honest now - the second half was gash, we are all shocked at what we saw and consider ourselves very very lucky to walk away with three points (about time we had some luck mind). Remember this: • these came into this game without a win in their last 4 • they just got beat off Millwall and Bradford • their manager today got the dreaded vote of confidence • it was us who made 4 new signings this week and hence received this new IMPETUS that Pardew said was required after the Reading game • did we have a shot in the second half? I don't frickin recall any • given our brilliant first half and their equally poor half, the fact we were two nil up, our confidence should have been sky high and they should have crumbled So let's not delude ourselves guys. We simply could not cope with their pace and direct attacks. Our defence got exposed way to often. I stress I'm over the moon with the win and could not wait for the second half to start and was feeling positive about the Chelsea game. In reality overall, our keeper was far busier and kept us hugely in the game.

five more wins to go!

WTF fuck happened there. Made them look like Barca. How can the second half transform so badly? DID WE HAVE A SHOT IN THE SECOND HALF? Triple FFS
