Krul - 7. Top notch handling with their crosses, and saved their best chance. Debuchy - 6.5. Still clearly unadjusted to England but did fairly well. Not much on his supposed attacking intent, but the same goes for the team. Williamson - 7. Solid performance. Depressing when he hoofs the ball but decent game defensively. Coloccini - 7.5. Professional performance given the circumstances. No way past him, and his chance at our corner shows his excellent technique. Santon - 8. MotM. We've been slagging him off for poor defending lately but he gobbled up everything thrown at him and was decent going forward. Perch - 7. Good defensive display, summed up by his clearance to bail us out of Norwich's best first half chance. Anita - 5.5. Worst game in a while. Set pieces were terrible (That corner ), poor touches and not much key forward passes. Obertan - 5.5. Same as Anita that this performance goes against his current form, though he had a decent shot and did okay with Debuchy. Marveaux - 6. Not at his creative best today, but he was the tidiest passer and had the neatest touch in our midfield today. Jonas - 6. Went invisible at times but better today. His run in the first half at least gave me hope that he hasn't lost the attacking ability. Cisse - 5.5. Nothing came his way today. Doesn't work with hoofball as he's not that strong and it fatally isolates him from the team. Cabaye - 6. Looked unfit but had glimpses of quality that we missed from him. Bigirimana - 6. Not much to say. Pardew - 6. Decent team selection, the subs weren't that baffling, but the attack plan of hoofball is where he's not my fan today.

Not a bad result I guess.

Krul's gloves really do have some glue in them.

f*** me.

Anita today.

Last season Cabaye put in a thunderbastard ball.

Anita Perch Cabaye Marveaux Gutierrez Cisse

Santon's been decent defensively.

Overtan

Norwich's pressing has done us so far.

Holt for Jackson in the second half could stun our CBs and kill us off imo.

Decent delivery tbf.

We seem vulnerable down the flanks I must say, then our midfield isn't marking well enough.

Cisse's improving on beating the offside like

Anita has learned the art of the hoof.

Great run Cisse

Perch Cisse's touch.

Obertan deserves a goal on recent form tbh

That's a cracking side on paper mind.

Hope Obertan and Gutierrez switch sides like.

He's not a bad captain imo. Put in decent captain's performances in the early stages of the season when Colo was injured, and led the team with his work ethic and Adolf Hitler impersonations when organizing the defense. Everyone just suffered a major drop in form since the West Ham game. With him being the least skilled of the senior midfielders, he began getting loads of stick as we struggled to create chances then. I agree that he's totally out of his depth at the moment, but he's certainly not as bad as some people here claim to be.

Lazy effort, but there you go.
