Was always going to be tough today and especially with our injuries. Saying that had we had Bale and Lennon I think we would have won comfortably!
Positives were that Dembele looked good again and seems to be regaining his form, Adebayor's effort has dramatically increased and we're getting better performances out of him, Sigurdsson is getting goals plus we'll be looking at Bale, Lennon and Defoe to return to possibly be in contention for the next league game. And even though we didn't win, that's one of our tough remaining games out of the way.
Also, Chelsea still have to go to Craven Cottage, Anfield and Old Trafford as well as playing Everton on the last day plus having a fixture pile up. Arsenal still have to play Everton, United and finish away at Newcastle, all games that could go either way.
Is not over yet! Hopefully we'll just do our bit and perform as we know we can from here until the end of the season.
Next season we should have both Falque and Townsend back as both have had insanely good loans, better than anyone could predict tbh and Dempsey should be out in the summer
This game, once again, shows how much we need a creative midfielder to open up defences when they shove 11 behind the ball. I don't know if we'll finish top 4 or not but if we sign a Moutinho or someone similar in the summer, along with a top class striker and get Townsend back as cover for the wings, I will place my house on us getting top 4 next season.
