Soft as shite penalty there. Would never be given for us and commentators would slaughter the player, as it was "he went down easy", "it was professional to go down, just ask the ref, he touched me, was that a foul?". Give me a break. Just now Mane's contact on Hayden was about 10 times heavier than Dummet's and not a word said no foul given.

He's still very raw that's for sure, hopefully will learn from Fernandez.

Not sure how that's not a free-kick for Hayden being pulled down, no wait, I am sure, away at Liverpool.

What a shoddy clearing header that was. Joy.

Easy run of games for manure until Spurs away in mid Jan. Good time for this inevitable action assuming they have someone lined up already.

😑

And a wonderful header from Perez.

You shouldn't get that much time and space on the ball in that position in training....

Diame is like a midfield Shola in possession. Noone, least of all him, knows where the ball is going to go off his legs.

Noone needs one as much as you. #boomtish

Posession % estimates?

Looked offside to me at the end there. Great save Dubravka regardless. Some of our players look as though they don't know what position they're supposed to play.

Thought this was going to be a feel good story about how we've lined up a trade for someone who will actually play, instead it's some drivel about a restaurant.

"I put in a tremendous, truly tremendous, offer to purchase the franchise and nobody has better respect for the coach. Ralph is a great man, very intelligent and I have tremendous respect for the New Castle county and its proud people covfefe."

A lot of (at least) half chances in a very open game.

Lucky Perez was offside there, completely fluffed the finish that Hernandez just put away at the other end.

That Ritchie miss....

Nervous finish but we were a different side with some confidence for the first half. Rondon MOTM.

As long as we properly reorganise our shape, this could be ok.

Our defensive line is giving them.opportunities here. Not sure I agree with the shoring up the defense substitutions. Should have been able to bring Murphy on for Kenedy who was clearly tiring, but clearly no confidence in him.

Good save there from Dubravka, but from the subsequent corner he had no chance. Painful one to concede, especially when Perez subsequently fails to put a 1 on 1 on target.

Ki is having a good game. Begovic keeping them in it at the moment.

Lovely. Kenedy put a nice pacey cross in and Rondon showed what he's best at powering it home with a determined header. Massive difference having him in the side, he finally looks properly match sharp.

A couple of excellent last ditch blocks from Dummet so far. Somewhere in middle earth Steven Taylor is shedding a proud tear.

Wonderful goal, nice ball for Yedlin's excellent run and composed cut back to Rondon.
