I agree with you on some points there mate it was a quality ball by JB and if that was messi, Ronaldo, bale etc everyone would be raving about it and the second point you're also bang on, how many times this season have we seen play move down the wing and have players in the box and a the player (usually traore) can't pick a ball out!

Who said I am not pleased? The bottom line is, it is staying up that matters to me most. And on today's performance, I don't think we will stay up, because I don't think this team will win against Sunderland.Comment

At least someone is not getting carried away and realising that just because something paid off once, it does not mean it will pay off again.Think that makes sense what you say, dropping Townsend was not a tactical masterstroke we got lucky with the result yesterday. Dropping Taarabt can be justified a little bit more that I would put him straight back in the team against Sunderland. Bothroyd Is useless at his whole career as being based on purple runs but I do doubt this is the start of one of them.
Townsend is electrifying, there is no way that Park can be justified ahead of him. And Tarbs has played well the two games he has played with Remy, so again, Tarbs should be on the pitch in a free role just behind Remy.Comment

I haven't said we will be relegated. I think we have the players and the fixtures to win 5 games from the rest. We just need Harry to stop making stupid choices.It is incredible isn't it. They've made their position clear ie "we will be relegated...Harry is useless/clueless" and they just repeat it on and on and on. Now most fans realise we might still be relegated but most of us are not relishing the idea as a small seemed minority seem to be.Comment

They play in different positions to each other - Townsend on the left; Park was played CM yesterday then pushed to RW in the 2nd half. Harry explained why he brought Hoilett back in to replace Townsend and that decision paid off yesterday for all to see.
Stupid choices like putting out a team that got us a vital away win.
Yes, we rode our luck at times, which team doesn't?
Yes, it was a bit ugly at times, which team doesn't win ugly?
As stated earlier, he set the team up away from home to soak up pressure then hit them on the counter, which is exactly what we did.Comment

Not having to rely on Mackie is a big thing for us. Great effort from the guy, but goalscorers are what we need now.Comment

Townsend, like any quality winger, can play on either side. Hoilett on one wing, Townsend on the other. We can't afford to sit back and hit teams on the counter, because more times than not, it doesn't work.Comment

No I didn't. I said on today's performance we won't. But if we choose the right team, with Tarbs and Townsend in it, and only one defensive midfielder, we can still do it.Comment
