[Stephen Paul]

Good team but sluggish start

[Stephen Paul]

Dire first half , sometimes I wonder

[gavin]

Poor half. Diabolical finishing from our wingers. Savinho's effort at the end was a bit better though. Lucky escape after a poor pass from Ake earlier on.

[Stephen Paul]

More like it , big man at again

[gavin]

He got the two crucial chances then missed a host of others. The job got done. We played some great stuff later on but I did wonder if we were going to get going for a long while. Everyone needs to work on finishing and show a bit more urgency but a great three points.

[Stephen Paul]

Its funny how all Carragher and Neville ( two first degree wankers ) wrote off Citys title challenge last month

funny old game this

[gavin]

There was always plenty of time to get back into it. But it has been surprising how quickly it has happened. Right back in the thick of it now. I can't abide the Sky coverage, there's no intelligence to any of it.
