We were poor and were lucky for the point today. We showed life after 90 mins. and that was it. Poor.
Thumbs up Heitinga, Duffy. Thumbs down, Neville, Saha (does Saha translate to statue in French?)
Straq may be poor but dammit he give us more in 5-10 minutes that Saha gives in 90.
I am going to step out on the Cahill limb with fire resistant kevlar....
Best game in ages but...
1. That counter around the 83rd min. is all the proof we need that he is not a CM. Loads of time, loads of space, still more time, multiple options, and he turns and plays it back.
2. I know he played a different role for most of the game but he is still not getting his head on many balls. Not like the Timmy of old. And today was his best in a long while. If he is not doing that, he is not adding much. Defending, he was invisible.
3. Barkley needs to be playing CM. He offers so much more and he is a sniper. Our flow would be so much better.
2. I am glad for Cahill that he got the goal but...
a. Am I the only one that is concerned that this will now assure another twelve months of being auto-selected into the starting XI?
b. Barkley, Osman, Rodwell would easily have netted the same goal.
