Great to witness a confident performance from the blues yesterday. It made sitting in the cold and lofty heights of the main stand worthwhile, rounded off with a sing-song and a beer or three in the Winslow after the game.
Thought everybody was great yesterday, apart from Neville at some stages in the game, still showing that he's poor in his passing game. Drenthe put in an outstanding performance for me, and Fellaini was flawless and did everything right, apart from getting in the way a few times in Blackpool's box! Distin and Heitinga rocks again. Also, Gueye's crossing ability looks to be quite promising for his future as a winger, but he just needs more game time.
I was hoping that the relentless Stracq would have got taken off in about the 70th minute to give Vellios a decent run out, but I'm glad he got on eventually. He's shaping up to be a great target man.
Looking forward to our 9th consecutive home game in the FA Cup against Sunderland. I can sense another long weekend in London for our trip to Wembley.
It's boss being a blue.
