Definitely his best showing for us so far. He seems to make silly mistakes in possession, but hopefully Rafa can drill some discipline into him.

Love Lejeune but he should've been in between Elliot and Smalling there. Looked to be ball-watching. You can tell by Clark's reaction.

He's always been a breath of fresh air for a young player, compared to the cunts we're used to seeing in his same age bracket. The fact that he's got himself involved locally speaks volumes (are you listening, Jermaine Jenas?).

Still remember the day he came into my HMV on Oxford St. He looked and dressed like a fat alcoholic tramp - he was still "playing" for Palace IIRC. Apropos to this, Clinton Morrisson used to visit the McDonald's in Thornton Heath where I plied my trade in the foreign-student-part-time-fast-food-worker gig economy. When he also played for Crystal Palace.

My favourite waiter.

lol

The people who booed the draw vs Wolves when we finished 5th got married to each other, had kids, who now are on social media.

Yeah, I mean, the amount of time Rafa and his team spend on spreadsheets with a descending sort of player's names based on wages is astronomical. Word has it if he cuts the top 5 earners from the team, Ashley figures out Brexit.

Just-sell-u.

Remember when he didn't know who Yossi Benayoun was? What days.

Was very, very good first half. He often ran deep and made moves happen which he was on the end of (like the header, for example). Worked hard, ran quickly and well. I'd start him from now on.

Yup.

We have zero attacking threat. None. Atsu has NO end product. He wastes every chance he gets. Shelvey is obsessed with playing ludicrous balls, and kept losing the ball today. And Joselu wastes 60-odd mins every game.

Joselu is a mackem.

I feel so negative and bummed right now as I think the goal not being given or us not scoring could come back to bite us in the arse. It’d be just our luck. Come on you toon, keep up the pressure.

Lejeune has today showed the kind of class at CB we haven’t had since woodgate. Incredible, beautiful, assured. And that ball he played across the pitch to Ritchie.

That should’ve been a goal. Can we please get video replays already? Fucks sake. Also, Joselu is shit. Gayle played really, really well so far, and looked sharp and worked hard.

In less kinder, albeit more accurate, circles, this would be called having delusions of grandeur. I mean, has he even looked at the stats he's mentioned?

The current jaded, rich China versions of Ba, Cisse, and Oba are comfortably better than any striker on the books, especially as Rafa seemingly does not trust Gayle or Mitrovic to be on the pitch for any extended period of time. Very true.

Cold as fucking ice.

Imagine Cisse in his 6-month prime, or Demba Ba in this team. Even Obafemi Martins would kill it for Rafa up front.

The second tweet is an orgasm for the mind. Rafa, you beauty.

Dyer came first to mind, but Bellers in full flow was lightning.

Slower at crossing than Sharon Stone in Basic Instinct.

This is fair. Something Rafa must address. Far often we don't support the player who loses the ball in midfield.
