people keep saying sagna was shit cos he cant cross but put that a side and defensively apart from a small period after we'd scored our second where we looked a little sketchy he played pretty well. he kept ashley young so quiet he had to swap wings where he less effective. it seemed sagna had finally realised if you show young down the line he doesnt have a left foot. and on the other wing traore then did the same and forced him to cut in onto his weak foot.
sagna also pushed forwards alot and with overlapping runs created space and meant most of our chances came down that right in first half. agree with his crossing its a shame he cant sort that out its bit ridiculous, eboue has such a good cross.
but anyway i'd just like to point out how good we defended, song guarded the defence brilliantly both full backs had the wingers in their pockets and gallas and vermaelen between them had agbonlahor completely lost for ideas. (anyone notice how quick vermy is? went toe for toe with agbonlahor a couple of times)
anyway so happy with the result, brilliant attacking display built on solid and effective defence.
i pray their are no more major injuries and that cesc isnt out for too long
