Definitely. Second half a lack of maturity showed and Kone was one of few who kept composure. He was finding space and a threat throughout. In the absence of a lethal striker who also makes space for others he is one of first names on sheet for me. I'd ask Lukaku who he wants in the team

It's ridiculous imo. Kone made a lot happen for us today, but because he's old and African, people are ready to unload on him the minute we don't pick up the 3 points. It all comes down to this baffling desire of some to see Mirallas in the starting lineup, even when he completely vindicates Martinez with that display in the last 20 minutes or so.

Ive seen the reply many times, their keeper rushes out closing down the space and angle as Kone tries to curl it in the far post. It happens.

If you need someone to blame for today's result look at Lukaku missing an open goal from 3 yards out, or Barkley making a hash of two straight forward clearances when they scored. Kone played okay and was a threat throughout the game.

Have to agree to disagree on this.

Just a very disappointing result. 16 games played.

Think some people confuse arrogance with talent. Mirallas summed up last season's problems when he came on

Lol. Maybe it's because he's been poor since the Sunderland game.
