Tammy Abraham the new  Andre Flo ?! 

[Jase 43,479]

This is weird to say but am so relieved that we've finally won a game this season! It was a much improved performance from the start till the end. Dangerous going forward and looked far less open defensively than in previous matches. They were clinical with their first two chances but otherwise, we didn't give them much of a sniff at goal.

BUT we can definitely still improve defensively. The midfield was non-existent at times when it comes to making challenges, opposing players were running through us far too easily. No doubt Rudiger and Kante returning would make us better but we really can't just rely on them both. Others need to step up in this regard.

Peter Walton totally shilling out for VAR on BT!

fucking twat

Nice how it's agreed it is a penalty! 

Stop making excuses!!!!

a. Atkinson was their twelfth player.
b. We normally see a lot of chances created with the Lamps system - under Mou, Sarri, Antonio we played parallel football.
c. The defense is crumbly - maybe Kante and Rudiger will help.

Both goals from Tammy was a player with confidence. You wouldn't ever see the likes of Morata or Torres score goals like that when the chips were down. Lampard is clearly doing a number on him, and for that I will hold my hands up and say I was wrong. Not trying to go overboard, but those goals from Tammy were from a player that had a manager who believed in him. Hopefully this breaks his duck. 

He could already have 4 goals in 4 games if things went his way. 

[Laylabelle 9,359]

Thankful for them hitting the bar! Really need to sort things out before we face Wolves and Liverpool.. And even Sheffield next week.

That second half was probably the best performance so far in terms of a more complete performance. We were far more solid defensively in the second half, much more controlled in possession but still created chances.

Norwich and their fans would have fancied their chances in that second half and we showed a much more mature and professional performance, and a bit of personality in our play to see them off.

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Norwich attack is probably 3rd best right now after City and Pool and we managed to completely shut them down in second half. Very happy with it. 

Also cant wait for Odoi to come back and completely shut Willian out of the game. Absolutely disastrous cameos from brazilian.

Same. Glad we came out less exposed after the first half. Was expecting more the same.

Willian played for four minutes - Alonso for one.

That was the first goal chalked off by VAR overruling the on-field ref in EPL history

All seems a bit iffy. Who decides if its worth VAR or not? And who decides if their decision is correct?! 

Nice to Joe Cole and everyone else agreed it was wrong really. 

[Jase 43,479]

Lampard mentioned Pedro picked up a hamstring injury and Mount a calf injury. Don't sound serious, I think?

[Hutcho 8,443]

 

Was just thinking this. Crazy times. Last time we had 3 goals scored by English players score for us was probably lampards last hatrick

He wears #10. He better score hattrick in those minutes.

Still think people talking about VAR is pointless, it will take time to get it right as its the first season with it and it wasnt the most concerning thing today. Our defending and organisation as a team was. Again.
