KaKa Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 So happy for Best. Always liked him. Ben Arfa and Marveaux might be waiting a while with the way things are going. Hope they're patient types! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Unlucky first half for Cabaye, off the ball his pressure has been fine but his passes have been a little weak and theirs been a few that have taken a deflection and as a result placed it into Stoke's possession. I'd like to see more of Jonas getting forward, Stoke seem to be having two men marking Ba and Obertan now so I'm sure if we played it onto the the left wing more it would stitch them. Over all we have done well though theirs been a few times we have needlessly given away some throw in's. Talking of throw in's, the referee needs to stop Stoke from being able to take a throw in a good 10-15 yards further then they were conceded. At the end of the first half we conceded a throw in their half yet Stoke took it 5 yards in our half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotus Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Also nice to think we have good options on the bench if we need to freshen it up in the 2nd half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSkÃrare Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Insane is the word. What is happening? Lots of football to be played. They look shocking though, we're very smart. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 That was a cracking header by the way, the way he shifted his body to guide it in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Excellent so far, but there's still 45mins to go and Stoke can't be much worse second half. If it's 2-0 going into the final third of the game and they bundle one in from a set piece we could come under a lot of late pressure, like Wolves. Hopefully we'll get another to demoralise them. And we have some brilliant options on the bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Still only HT like. We've been canny and defended well but we need to see it out or we'll be hanging on like we were at Wolves. Ba's been immense, the back 4 are so organised it's like watching a different team at times! Let's see it out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 I reckon Stoke are now going to revert to 3 CB's. Clearly an opportunity to dominate midfield. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David28 Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Ben Arfa to completely rape them in last twenty minutes. Or to lose the ball about 20 times to give them a way back into the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ba's been immense, the back 4 are so organised it's like watching a different team at times! Let's see it out. Let's go for a third. We always look balls when we try to defend a lead. Having said that, nothing this season makes sense. We'll probably style it out likes pros. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Reminds me of Wolves away this season. Hopefully we'll maintain the second half this time instead of limp over the finish line like we did there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
