THats about it really . . . he was good.

Even Ryan looked like a dwarf against the 2nd half goals last night.

Indeed, what he lacks in aged pace, his reading of the game was immense last night.

Pros - we had 2 shots on target

Cons - Ali J just confirms for me that we were sold a 'pup' for this level

I thought he looked ok on the right . . . . his crossfield pass to March ( who ****ed it up) was superb.

Also, when was the last match in the PL where we came away with a performance of domination/victory/quality?

Exactly. The fact is that on present form we are not competing at this level. Scraped a couple of wins. One of the few teams to have lost to Fulham. Really not good enough. In fact it's getting depressing. And based on our recent form and Cardiff's recent form they will beat us at the Amex.

Oh, no missus! Really?

Werd or Ward?! I probably got it the wrong way round.

Before Chelsea's first goal I thought we played quite well. We actually counter-attacked with purpose, and Andone was the main reason for that. He needs to start regularly as he makes such a difference.

He was such a lovely Gentleman and so proud to have played for the Albion (200 times). He carried his 57-58 (I think) promotion medal around with him and loved showing it to anyone who was interested.

I asked him for his autograph (around 1977 probably), he said “what do you want mine for”, i then repeated what I’d been told and we had a long chat. Of course being 9 I was probably a bit star-struck meeting a legend...

As the subject is quite subjective, and possibly opens up a game of tennis with views, I have done it in my mind with those that ARE PL standard in my mind.

Last night we barely got a kick against a side that are nowhere near winning their domestic League, men v boys scenario, and we cannot hold the ball nor take people on effectively.

Take an example; can you honestly see us, in the current format, producing a display against a big boy such as Palace winning at City? Also, when was the last match in the PL where we came away with a performance of domination/victory/quality?

Just two games ago.

Who did we 'dominate' and beat with a 'quality' performance?

I do hope this is not heading towards Selhurst?

Ah yes....Fulham.
Last 17 games........Won 1 Drawn 1 Lost 15.......Since we lost 4-2 to Fulham, the Cottagers have been revitalised.......1-4....1-2....1.2....1.2...0-2....0-3...1-3....0-2...1.2...1.3...1.2...0.2...1-4 ( THIRTEEN GAMES THIRTEEN DEFEATS )
Fulham's away record is impressive.....
P17 D2 L15.......and guess where one of the away draws was?

Yes, Palace with two quality goals, and they could only score from a penalty.

We've won 9 games so far this season, which is the same as last season after 38 games.

Dominate, with 2 shots? Nice.

We will survive this term, but we do not have enough PL quality players to progress.

Hmmmm one quality goal was from a wind assisted punt up field that was defended appallingly (quality finish)
The other AK cutting in from the right and putting the ball in the top corner has been the bane of our Premier League campaigns and now he's finally done it once that's all we're going to get from him for ever more.
Sadly AK can only do that once or twice a career.

It's your expectations that need managing.
