Haifa came and tried to play us as equals on our own pitch. It was good for the spectacle, but it wasn't going to keep us from scoring freely.

We've played worse teams than them and struggled, because the others came to shut it down. Haifa came and tried to match us, which they did in midfield, but not elsewhere.

EDIT: Mourinho agreeing with me ;)

Bunch of my year 9s though it would be fun to remind me of the Bayern Munich score today and wrote 7-2 on the board as we came in from lunch.

Tomorrow that score's going back up on the board for a few satisfying moments.

Much better from Dele (against a defeated MH sure)
I’m ok with a loan if Jose isn’t keen on him right now but I definitely prefer not to to sell him.

And thats where dele lets himself down. Loses the ball and just sort of ambles back. Think hes fine when you have the ball and has passed it nicely but defensively he has looked very one paced

I cant disagree with you fully like some others have. I liked what I saw from him tonight but there were a couple of occasions I was thinking 'if that was me and I was dropped for games I expected to play part in and the manager told me I wasnt working hard enough off the ball, I would be busting a gut on this occasion'. I'm glad we got a good showing from him though and for those people who think he might still leave, I say again Dele is going NO WHERE!
