The pressing in midfield was the key. Barry was quietly incredible today; they all were actually.

Shows how important it is to spell Barry and keep him fully fresh IMO mate, was back to the Barry of his first season today - McCarthy as well showed how much more effective he is when Barry is fresh

 

[Tubey]

every decision Martinez made GOT would not have done

GOT prob not a football manager

I called the Lennon for Kone sub to be fair!!

 

[chrissyjack]

More assists for Ross, too . I don't care if he doesn't score another if he keeps doing that

 

[ToffeeMark]

'Kin GET IN!!

 

[djsunyc]

that cross from galloway for the 1st goal was fantastic...

 

[Norwegian Cow]

Naismith and Stones today : 10 / 10

forgot bout that one!

*reinstates GOT as assistant manager

 

[angrysoba]

Naismith!

 

[monty]

Wasn't expecting that.

Phenomenal.

Possibly the most fortuitous hammy of all time for Besic. Gutting for him but worked out well for us.

How bad are Chelsea though? No pace at all in that side other than Kenedy. Zouma is awful, Ivanovic looks like Vidic did in his last season at United (gone) and Hazard and Fabregas don't look interested.

They are a team of individuals hence they are NOT A TEAM

 

[Andrew Hancock]

Had to enjoy this beaut on the audio stream but sounds like Barry had a good game. Thoughts?

 

[No8Bally]

Quote off one of the deludes on RAWK - seems to be under the impression that we are the same as them:

"4th spot will be 'on' for the bitters now. Sit back and enjoy the inevitable delusion and nonsense talk."

I do love Martinez as out manager and want him to succeed. But I thought Naismith was going to be a poor choice. I know nothing!

 

[svenboss]

Boss result that, two assists for Ross. Now I can enjoy a Saturday for a change.

 

[lesbattersby]

Every single player was brilliant. Really impressed with stones. Going into the game with all eyes on him. He was different class, what a talent.
