What are you talking about

Probably talking about our 1 goal from 20 chances, we aren't very efficient in front of goal in many games, it has to be said. We'd be top if we took a greater % of our chances... certainly West Ham and Chelsea away would have been turned into wins.

Oh shit we haven't scored 3 goals in a game again

Absolutely not the point at all, why be such a drama queen? We haven't been clinical in many games this season, which is the cause of 6 draws, nearly all of which could have been wins with better finishing. And if not for our right-back we were staring a replay in the face after players, especially Tevez, were very wasteful. It was a good - no, great - result, but it's not wrong to provide balance to match analysis. We need to take our chances better.

I'm a blue, got to complain about something.

Good performance with a good result at Stoke away(which is never easy).Silva was immense.Tevez was also good.Milner had his worst game of this season but other then that a good solid performance.Oh and Zabba was brilliant as always :).

I agree Milner was not at his best going forward , but Pablo wouldn't have been so effective if it wasn't for Milners workrate. A great team performance. Before long all our chances are going to go in and someone is going to get a hammering.

Yeah I guess Milner deserves some credit for playing in three different positions today.

We've kept 5 clean sheets in a row. We are 5 points off of top spot. Into 5th round. I understand your concerns but I think we are doing reasonably well.

Drama queen lol I'm not the one whining because we miss chances

And I wouldn't suggest we're not doing reasonably well, but some people on Bluemoon make even the slightest criticism out to be an attack on the club. My point is simply if we were more clinical we'd be top of the league and the lack of a clinical edge persists.

Excellent all round Team performance today. Garcia, Silva and Dzeko all had good games with Zabs again outstanding. Our crossing and play in the final third was a bit off but you can feel the team spirit coming from this set of players.

Not got a clue how Whelan stayed on the poor excuse of a Pitch and how come so many empty seats from the Stoke fans?

Pity he crossed the half way line, he was dire in an attacking sense
