Gah. Good point.....but we really could have won that with a better keeper.

 

Strange comment. We would have won in spite of Elliott if it hadn't been for an utterly stupid tackle by Lejeune.

Two points dropped but not a bad result. Would put money on us and Southampton being next to each other in the table come the end of May.

 

Was nice to see us piling forward at the end.

 

Murphy is a boy playing in a team of men, and Gayle might be finished at this level; really disappointing what's happened to him - clearly has some fundamental medical issue. Won't get anything like the £15m Fulham were prepared to pay.

 

Thought Yedlin was decent, that rash challenge aside - Shelvey and Merino will make it work.

2 points dropped.... we were the better team.

 

Was it 1-1 when Yedlin should've got sent off? We could've easily lost this as well.

 

Positive result. Positive performance. But the weak goals against hurt.

 

Nah it was 1-2 when Yedlin should have been sent off

shit result,  but happy with the performance and the fact that we once again play up with a team that is a lot better than us player-for-player. Also happy that we still try to go for the win and not just settle with the draw.

Question marks now on who is his first choice CB pairing, before the pen I don't think Clark would get off the bench much for the remainder of the season however Rafa doesn't suffer fools, we've seen that, might be back to Clark and Lascelles next week now.

Engineered our own downfall. Disappointing considering we were ahead twice. Elliott should save and Lejeune was daft. Really annoying because Lejeune was solid aside from his daft lapse. I thought we were the better team overall and our quality on the ball was more noteworthy than their quantity.

 

Can't grumble too much considering our record down there and that we'd have probably have all taken a draw beforehand, the perspective here is that we've come away with a point and are a bit disappointed, that's probably a good sign that we're doing alright.

Lejune had a solid game other than that, he will learn from this. This is a good point although we really should have won this

 

Really unimpressed by Murphy's lack of urgency there at the end

 

:thup:

Amazes me that we spent so much money on Murphy when a goalkeeper upgrade would've been so easy.

 

Blobby frightened the pants off me everytime they got the ball in an attacking area, it's closing in on our number one priority now for an upgrade in January.
