Boom Mr Happy

Jesus now talking about retrospective action on Costa

Lolz

Costa what are you doing

Fucks sake can we at least spend one training session shooting Fucking trying to walk the ball in Much better performance from the team though - this is what we wanted to see

That was a penalty

Who said Sanchez wouldn't go one on one with Ivanovic?!?! Well he just did and won

Oh yeah I'd never advocate losing that's the worst thing ever

I wished we'd signed Walcott - always liked him He's definitely improved in his finishing last few seasons

The final whistle will determine who was correct

Mike Dean that was a yellow card

Lol What am I seeing - typical old Jose Great - love our Manager right now Oh well a big 90 minutes for us

Maybe the treatment of Eva is affecting Iva - rumours that he was having an affair with her are pretty strong... It's like the Terry / Shit Ferdinand brother thing all over again. Lip readers blah blah Arghhhh just don't need this shit.

Fair points - but I posted elsewhere for a debut at home in the CL the ridiculous form we were in - it wasn't bad. Also the guy ain't stupid he's seen / heard others get one or two games then moved on. I can't say I'd perform to my best in those circumstances - but I would give it a good go and that's what I thought he did. To be fair you can only beat what's in front of you and we have lost to some crap teams in the past - so yes not a brilliant performance. But, like my mate says who's a semi pro snooker boy - he won't play with shit players (like me) as it drags his game down, he always plays equals or better so it raises his game - in my mind that could have also been applicable last night. But that's what makes the world an interesting place - different viewpoints

I don't think Baba was too raw - seen a lot of comments about that. Debut, first game, at home, champions league - that's a shit ton of pressure. He reminded me of Celestine Babayaroo (jesus been ages since I had to spell that, hope I got it right!). He looked pretty composed, some decent passing, great overlapping and a few wayward crosses - but it was a pretty convincing debut in my eyes. I think in 3-4 games he will definitely be getting it together. Remember Azpi had a slow burn start to his career here - I think the same for Baba. I for one loved how we suddenly had much more space - left footer on the left and right footer on the right - both made sure we had width in the shape - which is something we have lacked for ages.

I don't think he meant it personally mate I think 'shit' was a reference to historical pedigree. I'm a Lokomotiv fan myself - spent a couple of years in Moscow and went to plenty of games Pizdets!

Agree with this 100% But - I hope last night has at least clicked something in Mou's head - that the 'fringe' players deserve more chances. Yes the oppo was awful - but last night was simply a case of winning - the fact it happened with the main protagonists of frustration on the bench was a good thing! Regarding your part about the EPL - I also agree and think we have been stuck in a rut since 'possession football' became a thing. Every English team is so fucking obsessed with possession - but as we have seen time and time again, possession does not equal a win - goals are what count! I think the EPL needs to shape up and start producing faster attacking football - forget this slow possession based bollox. The EPL was strongest when the game was paid with speed. I hope Mou realises this and we ditch our boring laboured build up play and focus on quick passing and movement with some nice triangles - where every player always has a pass.

I don't think people are fickle I think they're Frustrated Today we changed the personnel and got a much better team - even missing a pen didn't make their heads drop! This was a joy to watch, some heart, desire and commitment. Now every negative Mourinho post I have seen - has been about him not changing players - he did and it worked. So I would potentially reclassify 'fickle' as 'correctly frustrated'

C'mon let's have a negativity break at least until Saturday team selection is announced Let's enjoy 48 hours of victory

Cheer up mate

I'm giving Baba MOTM RLC a close second Great debut under difficult circumstances I really enjoyed tonight and wish it had come so much sooner Yes the acid test is Saturday - but let's all bask in this win I really hope the switch has flicked in José brain and this is the start of something good! Roll on Le Arse

See the energy from the new lads - it's like we've made 5 signings Yes I know opposition is shit But it doesn't matter

Hazard goal would seal the night

Rahman is gonna be a legend

Told ya it's gonna be 5-0
