No chance, unfortunately.

What a fucking masterclass.

The whole Villa attack ran through him the past two seasons, I don't think he could do it all. Much better with other great players to work with.

At a loss for words, should have sent a poet.

Quite a testament to Szczesny that he got that close to it.

Just fucking hilarious.

Simpson was good enough. Better than he's been lately.

I'd like to see him run at defenders more. Could become a pretty good player after some time

Great vision and ability. Really excited for Ben Arfa to come back and we can add one more player to run the attack through.

Same here, felt pretty bad for him. Great performance, though.

It's going to be even nicer when Marveaux and Ben Arfa are playing consistently, we won't have to rely on him for almost everything creative. He should thrive there.

Krul should have stayed on his goal line, instead of coming out like he did. Which is why I said he could have done better.

Krul really deserved a clean sheet there. Shame, probably could have done better on the goal, but we were playing sloppy and giving up way too many free kicks. Great to see us not playing great, yet still winning. Cabaye is great, everyone really played well sans Loven.

Need to keep this up next half, the chances should come. I'd like to see Loven off for Marveaux, move Obertan up to work off Best.

Call half on a corner.

Shaky start. Get it together.

BBC was just knocked stone cold out, no more details yet other than he was completely unconscious. Twitter is saying just a concussion, sent to the hospital for precautionary reasons.

Knocked out in mid air landed flat on his face from about 6 feet in the air. Christ. They haven't showed the replay yet. Probably not going to.

I'd be very pleased with this, he would be ideal at this point.

I'm sure we'll move on pretty quickly from this one. Great last season, he'll always be remembered for that. Good luck to him.

We'd have to have pay way over the odds for him.

I'd love to see him challenge Simpson for the starting RB spot if we get a LB in.

Became pretty quiet for periods, but obviously has skill. Should be great when he adjusts and is fully fit.
