On nights at work currently, just woke up to that beautiful result. Guts guts guts! Let’s just hope this isn’t a case of “before the Lord Mayors show”, carry it on now lads! Although expecting anything from the Emirates might be a bit wishful.
Anyway, I’m going to enjoy tonight at work. Up the fucking reds.
Hendo 10/10. Liverpool could be there till the new year and they still wouldn’t put one past him
Aurier 10/10, A revelation. His introduction to the starting lineup has suddenly made us harder to beat. Coincidence? I think not
Cook 10/10. A return to his best form, search warrant sent out for Salah
McKenna 9.5/10 A Behomoth, our most consistent defender all year
William 8.5/10 Best performance of his season by a mile, something to build on
Yates 9/10 A fucking man amongst men. Leads by example always, gets stuck in like a boss
Freular 9/10 - Getting the hang of this league. Dictated today. A rock of sense where it matters most
Kouyate 10/10 What a fucking game. Jekyll and Hyde performances all year today was on another level right from the off
Lingard 7/10 Still waiting for the magic, effort is there
MGW 8.5/10 Looks the part and getting better and better every game.
Taiwo 10/10 3 goals in 5 starts, will be fighting it out with Haaland for player of the year
Subs
Brennan, Big Joe, Mangala,Lodi, all solid 8.5s
That was a great win by what is probably our 2nd string. Niakhate, Mangala, Brennan, O Brien, Biacone, Lodi will all be solid starters once fully fit, probably Micah too.
A great team
A great Victory
A great club
A great day for Football
A point gained given the circumstances. Had enough chances to take all three. Defensive frailties there for all to see again. On the plus side we scored more than once for only the third time this season.
Spurs named their first 11. Cooper made 9 changes and walked all over them despite an early red, may have stumbled onto his best team here bar MGW. No Mangala though next couple of games although I expect the red to be rescinded on appeal
