Did we just invite him randomly or was he there for a reason?

Think he heard about the cheese room but was then distraught to learn there wasn't one but then thought he may as well hang around as there was a game on to watch.

There’s a reason he’ll probably remain part of my avatar on here; the only person I’ve ever idolised.

Met him when England played Brazil in the Umbro Cup (when I had no idea who he was) but sadly never once he was the great he became.

Elder folk may disagree but easily the best finisher in my lifetime, and I’d be shocked if I witness anybody better.

Glad we won, but at the moment our football isn’t exactly enjoyable to watch... I want success but I do want to play a little bit of good football along the way too..

(missed the last 18 minutes, so if we became world beaters in that time I take it back...)

Football looks awful and my worry is that statistically these 1-0 type wins will turn into 0-0 or losses.

The football really doesn't look awful. Jesus. The first half was poor in an attacking sense but the second half was more than adequate. It could have easily been more than 1-0 in that second half.

The first half was poor because our tempo was low...on and off the ball.

As soon as we upped it we were good second half and deserved the win.

But overall we were far from awful lol.

First half we just were slow and ponderous. 2nd half we played with a bit more tenacity. We certainly weren't boring as we played down both flanks.

I didn't saw we were awful, I said that I think the football we play atm looks awful.

Well this has to be the most awkward yet funny transcription of Perisic by YouTube closed captions I've ever seen

Was at the game and first half was awful.

Royal killed every attack down that side.
Bentacur chasing the ball in circles and leaving gaping holes in the middle.
PEH being the “outlet” in the middle but not managing to play any decent balls.
No one in central defence picking any sort of long pass.
Son being absolutely useless.
Deki losing the ball or being muscled off it.
Kane barely involved.
Was a horrible display all around.

Ref gave us nothing as well. Not watched it back yet but it seemed he got a lot of calls wrong?

Second half much better but PEH was worst player on pitch. Shocked he got MotM.

We need a midfielder who can progress the ball forward. We also need a ball-playing CB.

To be fair we had both of those on the bench. With three games in seven days coming up I expect they will start to see significant time.

Slow starts…Contes tactics from the off or players not following instructions? Seems strange that we consistently start games poorly. Can’t remember when we last “went for it” from the off.

I wouldn’t worry. We’re a much taller, stronger, fitter team than they are. And that’s what counts. ‘Round these parts, anyhow…
Unsure if you’re being sarcastic or not. But if you were then i echo the sentiment. We may be large but small nippy technical players who retain the ball and have good technique will be tough to play against. Just look at the chelsea game!

We have been overplayed by the media and some of our fanbase but I don't think we are as good as some think.

I never knew Craig Charles could kick a ball.
