Mo Salah, Players Player of the Year. Totally deserved. Hope it's not the only trophy he wins this season....
Some of the old defensive frailties returned, never looked at ease whenever WBA had a corner or free kick. Even so, at 2-0 with about fifteen minutes left we should have done better. Ings scored his first goal since Brendan left and Salah scored for the first time since last week, at least we can...
All so very comfortable more a stroll in the sunshine - first real warm day of the year. The usual suspects scored, Mane, Salah, Firmino, three could have six but nobody's complaining. That top four spot is in our own hands. Roma to come, blimey, life seems good....
Nerve racking, of course it was but long before the end, the tie was done and dusted. Manchester's richest club was always going to give it a go, and got the early goal they would craved. There were issues, controversial issues, it was a football match but there weren't as many as the City manager...
A tepid derby that's for sure. Jurgen rang the changes but nobody complained this time around. Naturally I wanted a win, but under the circumstances I'm happy not to have lost. The Kaiser rested and rotated so we had Clyne back for his first try out since last season, Ings made his first start since Brendan was manager...
Allez, Allez, Allez and all that stuff. Long way to go yet but hope nobody minds if we dine off this one for a day or two? Fantastic atmosphere INSIDE the ground but what happened outside wasn't necessary. The first half we looked like we were better than the so-called 'Best team in Europe' and...
bThis had all the signs of being one of those days especially when Palace went ahead from the spot. Karius was clumsy but by the time he'd made contact with Zaha the ball was already in the crowd! Mane should have gone down straight away instead of waiting about five seconds before jumping to the...
It's hard to add anything to what has been said almost since the final whistle blew. Maybe you just had to be there? I'm glad I was. They don't have to write headlines about Mo Salah, he writes them himself. We are honoured and privileged to be watching such a talent....
Hard to take no matter what. Don't often do well at the worst ground in the land and we didn't do well again in this game. Might have had a penalty, might have had two, could have had three but referees are reluctant to give too much to the visitors at OT. He still sits...
A nil-nil nobody seemed fussed about. More akin to a training session and that's about it. In the draw for the last eight with the minimum of fuss. Good new Euro song rang out as well....
