I do not know whether to laugh or cry as the result was good but the performance was woeful.
Every team we have played so far bar Man Utd, have had better ball control, better holding the ball, better passing and they seem to tick as unit unlike us I am afraid to say.
I was cursing Jose for taking off Lamela for Bale, but what do I know?! The tactical thing he did which I liked was when he took off Son for Davies to defend our slender lead.
Saying all that, we won 3 points are now in second place with only 2 points behind the leaders, with the best goal difference in the League. If West Ham had known how to protect their lead we would now be on top!
MOTM Undecided until I have had a time to calmly review the match.
