Makes today even sweeter!
Enough of this "great second half" bollocks. We bossed them all game, we just only scored in the second half. Don't buy the Sky narrative.
I really don't want to make fun of someone having a slip but lol..
Sometimes though if we dont compete in the first half the game could be beyond us in the second half, we need 90 minutes of that 2nd half performanceSorry, but I beg to differ. We were doing good things in certain parts of the pitch. We just weren't functioning as a team. In the second half, everybody competed like fuck, especially in midfield. And you know, hand on heart, I can accept the draws, even the losses, if we fight and compete like that.
Continually made interceptions and tackled all through the game to keep us on the front foot and kept Sanchez then Giroud quiet. He got it right today. If any of our players had set up that goal you'd be drooling over the pass not blaming the centre half.Total ball watching for the goal aside? He was far from superb. He's also stupid. Again giving away stupid free kicks when the opponent is moving away from goal.
Same here. We're going to lose games; it happens. But if the team gives it's all, that's all any of us ask.Sorry, but I beg to differ. We were doing good things in certain parts of the pitch.
