Yeah, we played better tonight but.. aginsta tottenham we won't play with Matic/Fabregas pivot, which means Ramires for Pedro (or Willian) - anyway one creative force for attacking is off, and one who is at least sometimes doing some movements in attack.

Azpi will be back in squad, we will play with him and Iva, which means no helps from fullbacks again.. Come one, how great was that one-two with Kennedy and Matic?

Baba and Remy are propably cant wait for january transfer window..

Much needed win!!! Hazard. Cesc and Kenedy were class and Costa the match winner not for the first time this season!

[Rhino's Skin 972]

Can't even start to get hopeful. Been burned too often. Same old problems. Costa was rubbish. Defence looked vulnerable.

Positives - hazard and cesc. Kenedy should start ahead of Pedro.

Same old problems???

Hardly any worries or dramas throughout the game coupled with over 20 attempts at goal shows an improvement.

We were in control and focused throughout just about the whole match

we actually created chances today, and looked solid defensively which is very promising!

[Jase 43,479]

We won and there's only 3 pages so far. How typical.

We had similar amounts of attempts against stoke. We were pretty much in control of everything before arnautovic scored. Our conversion rate is our main problem. Our striker loves to be anywhere but in the box trying to score a goal, that is one of our problems.

Ivanovix was more than a little shaky. Kenedy should not even be a viable option for spurs game. Hence,the same old problems.

Give them a chance. I am sure loads are still travelling back from the game

And Stoke was also an improved performance on previous this season....just unlucky not too get anything out of that game whereas we got something out of this one.

And hence saying "the same old problems". As in stoke or Porto or Kiev or etc etc.

Norwich simply lack anything upfront to trouble us. A good team would have got a half chance and made us pay. Hence, " the same old problems"

[Starman60 1,343]

Nice to finally see us win a match, but I wont get carried away just yet. And the reason for that is

1. We were playing Norwich FFS....One place above us before the start of play

2. We had over 70% of the play and only converted one chance.

3. Costa, although he scored was shite (in my humble opinion)

4. Defence still looks a bit suspect at times. We could've been a goal down only for a Terry intervention.

5. We were playing at the Bridge and should expect to be beating teams like Norwich. (no disrespect intended)

But on the bright side, Hazard, Matic and Fabregas played very well today and seem to be getting back a bit of confidence

Spurs next week.......Now if we can win this one, then I will believe we are on the up :blue scalf:

Lots of positives, but I'm getting frustrated with players wanting to get a penalty instead of trying to have a shot.

stoke and norwich were not 'same old problems'

both performances were so much better than previous.

Try showing a bit of positivity in your posts first followed by constructive criticism instead of coming out with direct negativity in first line or two.

More posters might actually respect your obvious wide knowledge

Porto and Kiev were much improved performances too. Only thing missing were the goals. Don't know how I can make it much more clearer than this.

I am simply following in jose's footsteps in how to talk.

PS - just read what @starman wrote. Pretty much sums up everything I wanted to say.
