If Townsend can keep up that sort of delivery consistently, I'll be happy. I'm struggling to think of any of our widemen who have been able to cross a ball in the last few years

We do know. A few days ago when Yerri had a conversation in Twitch with James when asked about the new manager he said “To be honest I have talked to the profe very little but I’m hoping to get along with him, to have a good relationship. Specially so we can meet the goals that the Club is aiming for this season” so Mina has said it, there has been very little cómo between them. Maybe the lack of communication is because Benitez doesn’t count on him and that’s fine if the Club feels it is time to sell Mina but this should be informed to him. Benitez no taking the time to communicate with one of his player, not letting him know what’s his plans are for him this season seems wrong and are very poor managerial skills.

We know what Mina said on Twitch. Two sides to every story. I'll wait to hear Benitez's side before making my mind up. It might be fashionable to bash Benitez in some quarters, but I'll let him hang himself first before swinging the rope around his neck.

Makes a huge difference when your team puts out the effort. There is a method to the madness of playing conservatively in the first half, but not if you are conceding goals. Keane has looked incredibly weak today. Rafael seems to have lit a fire under everyone which is good.

Nice to see someone actually fast and direct playing for us in Gray

Whipping in crosses from both wings . I like it

Swapping Gray and Richarlison has been a good move

Townsend's point game has been really good today too.

 

[Cels]

Could do with Andy Carroll in the box to get on the end of all these crosses.

 

[Donegal blue]

That's all we wanted, a bit of effort, keep it up blues.

 

[Rook]

OMG we look faster than the other team.

 

[AmericasToffee]

Great stuff from Doucoure there

Could do with Andy Carroll in the box to get on the end of all these crosses.

Enter: Rondon
