Football’s a game of very fine margins.

We somehow got the win today. I’ll bloody take it.

Absolute shit and totally killed the natural end-of-game atmosphere after scoring a last minute winner. Wtf was the point of it - wasn't even good!?

Edit to be fair to BHA though it seems to be a PL thing - seen it at loads of grounds this season especially, as well as bloody fireworks etc
It’s all about the show!! Good for live foreign TV streams

Fair point


“But this is my point….were we lucky or maybe our brilliant recruitment department Fosters a better chance ?”

Amazing to think Potter never started Mitoma in a league game.

De Zerbi started him in his first game in charge and he has gone on to be our most influential player this season.
I thought Mitoma’s first league start was against Chelsea? Definitely wasn’t at Anfield anyway, although he did come on and torment TAA for 20 mins.

Three lads sat behind me today we're from Italy and we're absolutely raving about us.
Two Juve fans and one Inter, all said we are beautiful to watch (maybe not today) and we're attracting a decent following in Italy thanks to RDZ.

shows how far we've come- the Brighton of old would have lost that game. Good idea bringing on Webdini at the end. Velts and Dunky both on yellows and puffing a bit. Poor old boys- must be tiring with all those young wippersnappers on the pitch

Bournemouth made it tough with 6 across the back. Deserved to win overall so no concerns that it came so late. The subs all helped and Sarmiento in particular looked lively. I think his arrival finally allowed Mitoma to find some room and get us across the line. Good victory.

It wasn't the prettiest of games, after a great first min start Bournemouth just sat back and as usual we struggle against those teams.

Lot's of players standing around and too many touches of the ball because we could't break them down but main thing we didn't concede on the counter and got a win and 3 points.

Undav was fu*cking annoying though, all the players, such as Welbeck running their b@llocks off to chase down the ball and put pressure on them and he just sort of half heatedly runs, not jogging but not sprinting either. I noticed all game he just ran at 60-70%, considering he doesn't get much game time and this was a chance whilst Fergie is out he should had been running his socks off when pressing.
