Four goals off four shots on target so far....
-
Cisse off so no two up top
-
That'll be first time time Colback has been in the opposition box all season.
-
Phew. Offside goal for them.
-
They're looking ragged at the back
-
Mignolet strikes again!
-
Cisse offside, but good move.
-
Their pressing is great, but that shouldn't stop us putting a decent set piece in.
-
Perez has to get a shot in there or get properly fouled. That was neither.
-
Far too much time
-
Not sticking with Cisse.

Shearer's record is incredible. However, that particular stat is a bit misleading because he'd had getting on for three seasons playing as a starter in the English top flight, then called the "First Division", before playing in the Premiership. In other words, he had three seasons to get up to speed in games not counted as the Premiership. Foreign strikers like Aguero can arrive as pretty much the finished product, but the games in which they adjust to English football will be counted. To break Shearer's record, they'd have to start scoring on arrival. 100 goals in 124 games is an amazing run of sustained form regardless of whether those are your first 100 games or not. Basically unstoppable.

They don't get many clean sheets, so we should be able to work some openings. As against Citeh, try to give them no free gifts and take it from there.

Play like that and we're in with a shout.

Lino does it again
-
The international feed has Waddle in a weird "not a blatant mackem for once" mode.

Looking shakey now

What a take and finish!
