Looked quite soft.

Cheers bud, but it wasn't a Salah'esque dive?

Tangle of legs, Anderson ran into the back of him., soft but still a pen in my book.

More a case of one we are just not used to getting.
He worked his way into the box and then kind of wound his way between three of them. You could say he was sandwiched or you could say he ran into them.

Looked clumsy but the defenders didn’t make much of s challenge really.

Take that result all day. Most important thing was to win and we did that again with a patched up team and following tough games in chumps league and winning at wembley. Fucking well done boys let's Crack on to bournemouth

That was far from a vintage performance.
Mahrez very poor final ball. Had a terrible game.
Sane awful.
Kev and Dave a few good passes but very indifferent.
Sergio worked very hard and was good.
Zinch a very decent effort.
Vinny solid.
Danilo man of the match.
Bernie and sterling made a big difference.

I suppose it's all about the 3 points. But we cant play like that too often or we will be in trouble.

Pretty much this. That said, if that was given against us v the rags or dippers say, in an Important game I'd be fuming.

I had to resort to watching the extended highlights on the OS.....that was a huge save that Ederson made on Carroll's shot after Zinchenko lost him. Good man Eddie.

Is anyone really surprised that Robben has continued to play like shit all season? He's not that good and was the epitome of a big fish in a tiny pond at Leicester. A mid-table PL club or 3-5 Bundesliga club is his level.

What's the craic with the Robben thing, is it the turning back inside on to his favoured foot? That's the only likeness I can see in them.

Why don't we try the fooker on the left.....

I think we are going to see a few more games like this one, the amount we have to play I'm sure some will do just enough to win to try and save themselves for the run in. The dippers aren't going to just roll over. This is going to the death I'm sure.

just seen the highlights
anyone who says that we didn’t have a finishing issue last night needs to give their head a wobble. some woeful attempts last night!!

Yep, we created some good chances, has anyone said we didn't have a finishing issue last night?

We create a shit load of chances in most games . Last night was no different, we could have been 3-4 up by HT - unlike the chelski game we weren't, We start fast and on the front foot and in 70% or so of the games we have it won by HT. When we don't convert the chances there is always going to be a risk the opposition will get one , more so in the chumps league. Bottom line for me is that in the league we have the best GD so we are doing something right.

Massive 3 points last night . Pep had a real struggle putting a team together after our 120 minutes Wembley exploits.........lots of injuries, several out of form world class players and only one center forward . Aguero was absolutely fucked after 60 mins or so hope he is ok ???? West Ham played very well also , that young full back Fredericks was outstanding !

That Frederick's was lucky to stay on the pitch after that fuckign diabolical attempted scything down of Sane (Who incredibly managed to stay on his feet)

Could have been a serious injury...the dirty cunt.
