I thought we looked bloody awesome for large parts of that game. Lots of skill on show with Anderson and Lanzini but still that grit elsewhere with Noble and Rice. Defensively we looked ok and we've got a top-drawer goalie there in Fabianski.

Onwards and Upwards I say...

Brighton only put one past us.

We are better than Everton and Watford.

It's got 2-0 Brighton written all over it. They will continue their good start and we will huff and puff but not have any ideas what to do in the final 3rd. They will have two chances and take them both.

Well that was enjoyable, wasn't it?! I'm not going to get too worried as it was Man City (although I didn't think they were anything special) and the game will be remembered for VAR and nothing else. What did concern me was the lack of movement off the ball and lack of ideas in the final 3rd. As we ...

Couldn't care if we lose both this and the last game 5-0. That win at Spurs yesterday was so sweet and will last a few weeks for me...

A win here would be lovely and make up for a lot this season. Unfortunately I can't see it happening.

3-0 Spurs

More performances like yesterday. Funnily enough our other top drawer performance this year was at home against this lot. Ok it would be unrealistic to expect us to play like that every week but personally I expect the players to put in 100% effort at the very least. And It's so obvious when they do...

Thought we looked excellent today and completely dominated the game. Was pleasantly surprised. No points to show for it but that doesn't really bother me. It was all about the performance. Well done West Ham.

Our season has been over for a while. We are just going through the motions now. Unfortunately we will all have to put ourselves through 2 hours of torture tomorrow just to see what happens (even though we already know exactly what will happen).

3-0 United

We look ****. They look much better.

We are going to get embarrased tonight, I can feel it. Just give them the 3 points now.

I'll go for a 'pass it sideways all game and not have any ideas how to penetrate their defence Lanzini and/or Anderson trying to be cute on the ball and getting upended every time and losing possession Arnie walking around like he thinks his **** doesn't stink with that shitarse look on his face and...

We should do the business here but knowing West Ham it won't be easy. I predict a squeaky bum 2-1 win with loads of missed chances and hanging on for dear life for the final whistle. But that will suffice.

The win never seemed in doubt. Great team performance. I expected a bit more from Newcastle after their recent form but perhaps we just didn't let them play? Lovely to see Anderson and Lanzini linking up and there were some 'proper' tackles going in today from our lot. This Fredericks seems to have ...

But he never gives the ball away?

For some reason I am really looking forward to the game tonight. Although we will probably get beat I am curious to see how we perform against such quality opposition. We did well against Liverpool not so long ago and beat Arsenal so there is no reason we can't at least give them a bit of a game.

I wonder if Man City would like us so much if we had a Billionaire owner and were challenging them for the title every year? I've got a feeling that suddenly all the niceties would go out of the window!

Looked class when he came on against Fulham. Great touch and great energy. So good to have him back in the team.

If we can keep it down to 2 or 3 nil then we will have done well

Glad all that warm weather training paid off. We were out of the traps like a racehorse!!
