At least we played football and not constant cynical gamesmanship - good riddance to teams like Reading.
Well I've only missed a handful of games this season and I haven't seen us play too many games better than we did tonight. I was at Cardiff away and I doubt we'll better that this season, granted.
But tonight I thought we were the better team throughout. First to every ball, more creative than usual going forward, solid in defence and had many more chances than them to go and win the game.
At their place on New Years Day we were poor, but to be fair, they also made us look poor. They made us look silly in the first half with their pace and possession, and in the second half they even sat up as though they were just toying with us. McAnuff & Kebe ran at us and we just couldn't deal with them. Tonight, look how deep those two were forced back. It's not as if they quite parked the bus like West ham did either, just that we pretty near dominated them for the whole 90 mins.
I'm very proud of our team tonight
