Still more work needs to be done but there was definitely a game plan today. The players did their best to execute it and sometimes that's all it takes: effort.

Well done to everyone

I see a future for Ox at wingback. Like what happened to Victor Moses. Was our best player today along with holding and Gabriel.

Yep. It's such a lame position it hides his many flaws. Defender behind him, attacker ahead, all he needs to do is use his pace and power to get up and down.

They had double the possession, double the shots. We rode our luck today no doubt. If one their woodworkers went in, if the ref had been against us ...

Still, we looked better than we have for a while at least. With these jokers, we need 3 at the back!

If we win all our remaining games that should give us the FA Cup and the Top 4 trophy. If that happens, I say ...

TWO MORE YEARS

I enjoyed the win. If we are going to continue to play this formation we need to really get a good striker who finishes his chances.

What?

This formation is great for Walcott, 3 attackers without the pressure of "Your not a real striker".

Great position for all our offensive players bar our actual strikers as it shows how ineffective they really are.

Welbeck and Giroud need to go and we need two new capable strikers.
