What is it about his game that you don't think will suit in the English league?
You've either not been to many games this season or have been extremely lucky
Agreed. Not looking forward to Chelski at all.
From this day forward I will no longer refer to the Deathstar as the "Woolwich Library".
I could hear a man 40 seats away farting it was so quiet yesterday.
I also felt like I had stepped into a different dimension, Lennon was defending and Dawson had three really good attempts on goal including a volley. WTF

It really says something when we win yet some of us still slate the team, yes the game was poor but given the previous "high" of Thursday and the shocking silent home crowd I think maybe we all need to look at ourselves, we couldn't even get a decent COYS chant going - pathetic. And I don't think Cardiff were that bad - hit the bar, good lloris save etc.
I enjoyed going anyway, if you don't enjoy it don't go - maybe there might more tickets available that I can buy!
The second half vs Cardiff was essentially the same as the first half vs Palace. Slow, backwards passing, no speed in the break, no incisive movement nor passes. Very poor, it was like we'd been told to hang on to the 1-0 and run down the clock from 45 mins onwards.
Still trying to work out exactly what Bobby's orders from Tim were? Seemed to me that he was dropping way back at times, even taking the odd throw in, when in my view he should have been moving around the box. There were a number of times we had movement on the wings but instead of making the run for the through ball he'd drop back to hold up play.
On the plus absolutely stoked with his goal, took it well and for that instance was in exactly the position I want to see him play.

Yeah, AVB's fingerprints were all over it...
Random Stat but But joint second on 12 clean sheets this season with only west ham first with 13
West Ham being first kind of proves that this stat is not very relevant
Was think that myself it was a typical avb performance in every way but for the fact soldado scored from open play rather than.a dodgy penalty.
The atmosphere in the second half was just absolutely hideous. It's embarrassing.From this day forward I will no longer refer to the Deathstar as the "Woolwich Library".

The midfield is the problem. Dembele and paulinho. They just don't posess the ability to pass the ball quick enough and it slows our play down. They arnt play makers, and that's why our play has been so mundane. Sometimes dembele plays at walking speed and paulinho looks as though he is just waiting for the world cup to start. They don't spot runs, or openings and their style just doesn't suit how the fans want us to play at home. Playing away to a top team and having to pack the midfield for example chelsea next saturday, that's when they can be effective. Our best midfield duo for home
games where we have to attack and entertain is sandro and eriksen.

Got the job done and a good win.But the way i look at if it would have been above us it could have been very nasty again
Ade worked his socks off yesterday. I've yelled some horrible things at that man. I'm really sorry.
Paulinho does absolutely nothing for me. For all those talking about Dawson reckless diving in and getting nothing- check out some of Paulinhos challenges yesterday.
Anyways- 3pts after an emotional Europa League victory can only be a good thing - unless you like moaning (which a fair few of you do). Roll on Chelsea- I really hate those cunts.

Yup. And not the first time this season. I preferred going when we were a mid-table team. Seriously considering stopping going.
Obviously I wasn't alone in my thoughts
