Saint Charlie

The style was purely down to the pitch, in the warm up you could see it was bobbling all over the place. Rugby and football doesn't mix...

Went down easily yes, dived no. He just went down when he felt contact. Great first touch, quick feet and quick brain. Good player and dealt with a first English away game like he had played 100 of them.

Pitch meant our tactics were spot on. Lee had a great game, lots of movement and a quality first touch. Lambert superb, Hooiveld and Fox close behind. Injuries seemed very minor, certainly RLs.

Jos is fit and NA hopeful Richardson will be in contention soon, possibly Sat. Source: OS

Yep, could be big to have taken 4 points off each come end of season.

West Ham win. They are going up whatever...

Yeah Lee to come off the bench in away games is most likely IMO but maybe Lee will start, great competition. Send SDR and Barnard out on a months loan with instant recall.

Our style is quite advanced compared to other teams. Donny don't have anyone on our players level so of course he will take time to adapt!

Bizarre.

Jos on Twitter said his injury is a precaution.

Got to be good news!

Happy birthday Rickie. Has to be one of our best signings ever for the impact he has made plus he has improved since being here. Hasn't got pace to lose so hopefully 3 more good years!

Guly has a great record at home remember...

Same team as today with Punch for Guly maybe. Hope Richardson plays but if not put Hammond in and move Cork to RB or play Jack Stephens.

On train home. Our passing was very good but lacked that little bit of a spark in the final third today. Puncheon good when he came on, Lallana back to his best.

Exactly.

Schneiderlin and Cork bossed it today. No need to force the issue at 2-0... With the style we play we keep the ball and wait for the right opportunity to go forwards. Did it very well today.

No way Chaplow will start against West Ham... No way Morgan or Cork should be dropped... Or Guly...

Lambert was ludicrously good today. Fantastic technique and found some of Sharp's great runs superbly. Cork, Lallana, Hooiveld and Fox also excellent. Fans that were slagging Connolly proven wrong as I knew they would - he was class when he came on! Should be a cracker at Upton Park - same team I think...

West Ham game at Pboro is off.

Anyone who thinks Guly won't or shouldnt feature on the bench at least has lost the plot.

If he does we still have a great chance to win. Connolly is class playing up with Lambert. Would like to see Sharp start but Connolly isnt actually Jonno Forte is he?

Harsh but a lot of truth. He isnt a promotion quality player and needs a season loaned out to really learn his game. If Seaborne had stayed fit he probably would have been loaned out. However, he does have a lot of potential if he continues to improve.

This. If de Ridder is fit I would have him on the bench for his pace.

Would be a big boost to have Jos and Jose together. Surely he could come straight in as has only missed 2 weeks.
