Okay all you Sissoko-hating wankers. Where's your love for him today? BEAST MODE

I think the trick with Sissoko is to play to his limitations. Poch's expansive, possession based football saw the worst of Sissoko but Mourinho's style suits him perfectly as he is one of the fittest players around and has the pace and power to cause real troubles on the counter. His positioning is pretty good too and as long as you are only asking him to pass 5 yards he can do it. Suits us perfectly at the moment but mainly for these games. I wouldn't fancy him if we had to break down fellow bus parkers.

We have to keep going and scoring.
We can score 3 or 4 in my opinion then again we were winning 3 nil against west ham.

But so far so very good

He's always good against the top sides, superb this half, but I just don't think he suits games against bottom half sides where we control possession.

Play him to his strengths in games like this and he's excellent.

Please don't go into shut down mode. I want to humiliate these fuckers.

Got to be careful in the second half not to give away silly free kicks in dangerous areas.

Such a bag of nerves I actually feel sick

Wtf Partey standing there waiting to be subbed omg. That was hilarious but unbelievable. You still need to be on the field to fill up the space ffs!!!
Technically should have been sent off, left the field without permission and re entered without permission both yellow card offences.

Agree with others saying take GLC off, cant risk a red card and he's a bit off the pace anyway. Good half, a little bit open at times but some great defending when it mattered!

If Partey aggravated whatever he was out with because he came back too soon, fuck their medical staff.
They've not had a good week given that they allowed Luiz to play on after last weekend's collision. (I'm guessing it must be the medical team that Arsene wenger recruited. "I did dot see ze incident.") :) :)

In retrospect that West Ham result could be one of the best things to happen to us. Reminds me of how Liverpool changed after we embarrassed them at Wembley.

Hope the lads are being reminded of the west ham game. Don't let up a single bit.
