Saint Albert

How was that not a Chelsea goal.

Boufal for Clasie.

Great shot but too many defenders stood off and watched.

Sideshow Bob with one of the worst dives of the season.

Fonte with a fantastic goal-saving challenge there.

Davies did well defending against Hazard there.

We've apparently scored in 14 consecutive Prem games according to the NBC commentators. The longest active streak.

We had nice spells of possession that half but nothing incisive. Chelsea had three good goal-scoring opportunities and scored on one that went through Forster after Davies failed to track Chelsea's most dangerous player. Looking at the replay Bertrand actually pointed out the space that he wanted Davies to defend, which Hazard then ran into unmolested. Davies and Clasie both worry me. Davies has had a hand in the last two goals scored against us.

I would tend to think that Hojberg would be an improvement over Clasie.

Costa in alone but this time Forster saved the shot aimed between his legs. Poor give away by Clasie led to the chance.

Pedro was in acres of space for that Chelsea counter. Luckily Hazard picked the wrong man.

Nice spell of possession for Saints.

Right through Forster's legs...

Lovely performance by Lovren for Liverpool today, but an honourable mention should go to Wanyama for helping set up Leicester's equalizer today.

Good point. I don't remember Wanyama producing many incisive forward passes. It was a common complaint about him if I recall.

I've answered my own question. According to the article Romeu's passing accuracy for this season is 89%, and according to Whoscored Wanyama is 89% too.

I'd be interested to see how they compare statistically when it comes to passing. One of the more common knocks against Wanyama was his inability to pass consistently well. And his discipline, particularly last season.

I couldn't resist it. Here's Boufal's opener from the Saint's You Tube channel with the Solent commentary:

Man U / City game is over. Perhaps the FA will be courteous and wait for the Chelsea/West Ham fans to stop fighting before they do the draw.

Solent reporting that J-Rod's brother has been tweeting... something along the lines of J-Rod is OK, and he just wants to play.

Lovely. Puel's rotation comes good again, against an almost full-strength Sunderland team.

Moyes gets a red card!

Gooch replaces Whatmore. McNair off for Peinaar.

Clasie on for Reed

Isgrove off for Redmond.
