Big 3 points
Bit lucky with the shot but good work from Calleri on the build up he's worked hard since he's come on Nevendon though he hasn't had loads of support
Boom.
Hope the Carroll and Noble injuries are minor ;pray
Future looking rosey again
Hope the injuries to Noble and Carroll arent serious ;pray
Life without Payet ain't so bad...
Has he gone yet?
What a relief. ;phew
Well done lads. ;clap ;scarf
Nice long rest, time for the knocks to clear up ;pray
but anyways great team performance nice to see the team show real backbone where they've come apart several times when under pressure this year
28 points and 10th, relegation seems a long way away now
Was really worried those misses were going to come back and bite us.
Good way to go into the break.
Hopefully AC's groin is nothing serious.
I think he has a general issue with it which he manages.
COYI ;scarf
;wahoo ;handbag ;wahoo
;redwine
We're now in the top half of the table & I reckon we can say there.The team spirit seems to be good & I'm so pleased for Slaven. I'll admit that before Christmas I was starting to have my doubts but I always wanted him to succeed & glad there was no knee jerk reaction from the board. Pleased for Calleri as well. COYI!!!
Incredibly nervy 2nd half though. Looked a little rudderless without Carroll and especially Nobes. I'm still not entirely sure what Billic sees in Calleri over Fletcher, although happy for him to get his goal (though the keeper had it without the deflection). Also personally I would have taken Lanzini off over Feg, I felt his pace was causing problems on the break and Lanzini down the left was giving Cress little cover. For me it was the right move to bring on Collins who I felt was unlucky not to start; we were under heavy fire and 5;3;2 worked well defensively.
Overall though commendations to all the players! Praying that Carroll and Noble's knocks are minor...
So nice for Slav & the squad , and it's such a nice thing seeing that we r in the top half of the table, 1st time since August & is that 5 wins out of 7 now ;scarf
On the flip side we rode our luck a couple of times as well with some nervy moments at the back, that Traore fella is simply lightning.
Great result and overall team performance, AC was everywhere again today, not convinced with Calamari, he did well enough, held the ball and put in some effort but imo, lacked any convincing touches, he will be credited with the goal but frankly it was a pretty poor effort.
Onwards and upwards, comfortably mid table and a two week break which will hopefully help our injury list.
COYI
It's just shows what happens if you just keep the faith.
IMHO - True, False, True.
Strikers thrive on confidence. Calleri may well leave this window but at least he managed to score for us, he hasn't had much of a run in the team and has actually scored more for us than a certain Italian international we recently released. Some people had no time for Feghouli or Obiang look how they have turned out. Any players of quality leave South America and go to China or Europe so the level of football there has dropped and it is easier to look better than you may actually be. Good luck to him if he goes this month, he will probably do someone a good turn given a chance.
;ok
Great effort, great result, great noise. Should have been easier with those two chances at the start of the second half. One or two scares, to be expected away from home, but generally comfortable. Reid and Pedro were once again excellent. Noble and Lanzini did well too. Traore is the quickest I've seen on a football pitch. AC, nuff said.
It's going to be a happy drive home. ;wahoo
