Cabaye's second against stoke wasn't half a lovely taken shot, and cisse's then purely cos of the pass was great. Some of demba's goals from earlier in the season seem a little forgotten, they were rarely spectacular in and of themselves, but he was unplayable terrorising a defences

Lets just keep enjoying next season? beyond a disastrous flop in form we'll be fine and this season has been such tremendous fun

Demba's vs Man U was excellent

When he said he wanted to emulate shearer didn't realise he had a list Just ticked off emulating that everton wonderstrike...

"alright pards play your oldest slowest team, isolate your only striker without support of your best winger and then play for a draw, and even when they score, never try hard enough to even get a shot on goal" yeah think I'd ignore fergie's advice

Didn't mind him being replaced so he's fresh for sunday, not like we were going to score again anyway...oh wait

Talksport apparently mentioned some bollocks about a £15m buyout clause. No way we'd be that stupid. here we go with bullshit rumours though.

Man that will have been the reaction of every other striker in the league watching at home

They just reattached his head to an alternate robot body

Are there any more footballers called Demba...cos we should buy them

I didn't react, my brain couldn't quite compute that it had gone in

Robin Van Persie is so lucky he had a head start on Cisse for pfa award :|

Did he really just do that? I mean really?

Krul - 8 did what little was asked of him Perch - 8 needs to stay there. Williamson - 8 maybe best seen him play defensively, in first half when we controlled the game was hoofing too much though Collocini - 9 rock. Santon - 8 Very good again, one loose pass Cabaye - 9 Thought was brilliant gritty and good passing Tiote - 8 Brilliant till injury, though slight suspicion he was heading for a second yellow... Jonas - 8 top defensive performance Ba - 7 unlucky not to score, some misplaced passing though HBA -8 maybe should have shot at times when passed, did well though Cisse - 10.

Brilliant display, flair in the first half, all the grit in the world in the second. And Cisse. Wow. He's limping, could well be just cramping up? Hope it's nothing.

OH. MY. GOD.

Save ben arfa for Man City, not unreasonable, Obertan's pace could be needed...

Some very good defending going on

Need to bolster midfield if Perch is to stay on wing.

Looks bad, no way Tiote will be around for Man City and Everton either. Fucks sake.

Balls, drogba

Got tiote'd

Need to pass it around slow the tempo for a bit

Mata already improving them no end

Great today, more traditional 4-4-2 but retained the fluency that we've never managed before in that formation. We deserve and should get more goals. Santon looking good and Perch looking good too, hell his sprint over to foil their counter was incredible.
