Chaser

I've watched every match this season, there's been loads of times where luck has deserted us. Regardless of how committed we were, Martial still had 2 opportunities to score and didn't. The fact luck was with us takes nothing away from the fact that they fought hard to get the result.

For once, we got a slice of luck, a big fucking piece of it. Throwing bodies in front of the ball and instead of going in off, they were bouncing straight back at them. Lets hope we can get a few more 3 pointers

Dubravka or Diame MOM for me. Incredible result.

I'm sorry but these players are now far worse than they were at the start of the season. Are they playing for their futures? We saw some decent performances which we all praised, suggesting that we had strength all over the pitch for the premier league and yet now we are calling them all championship players without criticising some of the tactics and the coaching which clearly isn't developing. Yes our squad isn't that big but can any of us actually predict any game which our side is going to be? Surely a team builds a rapport and from there on there is the odd tweak here and there. We are playing with several changes each game when injuries aren't influencing our selection. It seems not even form suggests whether or not someone is playing the following game.

We are shitting ourselves now. Showing no control over the ball

Clark was dumb to pull him around that much though

That is a better side on paper than ours. Just shows how far we've fallen.

Slimy Salami?

Joselu dropped. Finally. Shame Slim isn't fit

Doesnt Perez usually take them? Cant have been any worse.

Every weeks presser suggests that unless something drastic happens, as soon as his clause comes to an end, he'll walk away.

That Rafa interview.....it sounds like an ultimatum to Ashley. Invest or he's off.

Murphy is fast establishing himself as a regular and should be ahead of Ritchie on form

14 goals against us for Aguero.

Nemesis scores again

It's an embarrassing reflection on the ambition of our owner

Peach of a finish. 15% possession though is embarrassing for a team in the premier league.

Pen. That's it then 0 points.

Got to say, Joselu is working hard. He lacks any quality but he's always chasing the cause.

Nice to see us having a dig further upfield for the away meeting.

You might just see that if Ashley continues to make a mug of him.

Shelvey for all his ability, is not intelligent enough to grow up and keep himself out of trouble. He also needs to find some sleeves to roll up when they need to be rolled. Despite this, I don't think we should be selling anyone. Does Ashley honestly think its good business to sell someone now rather than in 6 months when the difference could be getting money for one player and relegation or holding off for survival and all the money it brings? We are wasteful with the chances we are creating and we can't afford to be. Joselu took his goal well, full credit to him where its due. The others though, need to be more consistent and not just finishing. We give too many balls away from errant simple passes.

I'm glad we put out a strong lineup. This team need confidence and this builds on that. We were lucky in that we came out unscathed, and the players have enough time to rest. We need to stick a rocket up Swansea now and kick on. I'm desperately hoping we get a couple of additions before the next game just to ease the burden on our relatively trim squad. Glad Woodman got blooded, just to get that under his belt will do the world of good.

Lascelles off for Hayden. Injury or doing a city?

They've played well as a team today but why do we go so deep with 10 to go? We make it hard for ourselves and the players forget to play and instead just hit and hope. Hayden and Gayle both demonstrating a lack of quality at the end.
