Mane is painful to watch

This. The keeper is shaky. Keep blasting at him.

Agreed, allowing the game to go on unlike previous game where every touch for one of the teams was a foul

We need to vastly improve in the 2nd half. I suppose it’s too much to ask, for us to finish these off?
We need to get the next one.come on boys

Ref had a great game and Bobby scored. Both have been a rarity this season. Hope it continues and we win 3-0… One more goal and their heads will drop.

Half as expected. Scary, nervous, mistakes, finishing issues but hey leading. Just get another one, shut down shop and run away from there.

He’s a shadow of the player he was.

His movement is poor atm and he just seems to be over thinking it. Effort still good and does get fouled a lot

Half time verdict:
Wasteful in front of goal is the biggest problem.
Enough chances to easily be three ahead.
Midfield ponderous, Fabinho caught in possession a couple of times.
Thiago starting to boss it though, and dictate the tempo, so that’s good.
Central defense iffy, Williams not having a great game, but I would resist calls to hook him.
We got the all-important goal. Hopefully we add to it in the second half. I don’t want to go until late into the game wondering when the sucker punch is coming.

Milner/Curtis/AOC for Wijnaldum after HT???
Seems devoid of confidence
The team is a bundle of nerves, especially defence, hopefully the goal will settle them down.
The best chances falling to the serial missers, and then one of them gets one, figure that out.
I think Gini is going to have to come off at some stage, not providing much. Later.

Our front three for 43 minutes of this game were overintricate and then Bobby just belted one in.

Fans are back. It’s all about the fans with Bobby. It lights a fire in his belly. Even fans that aren’t ours. Call it coincidence but his best games have been during the brief moments around where the fans were let back in back in Dec (??) and now.
Lovely goal IMO.

i was just thinking to myself that Robbo looked lazy and should have overlapped wide to give Mane the space to cut in.
then he does that.
ill just keep myself to myself then !

Only thing he is missing is the fouls by Wood, similar to Shearer plays the man before the ball and gets away with it, also thought Westwood should have had a yellow for the foul on Mane

I don’t think we are allowed to bring 3 players on and only 1 player off.
