    I started to get worried in the second half when I saw Laca warming up on the touchline!

    Also, Xhaka ?? what kind of deflection attempt was that !?!

    Schoolboy stuff

    Still, the goals were great to see, and props to Saka for scoring his pel.

    Onto the next - Saturday is a must win
    I kind of liked the chaos. It was good to see us take more risks and throw some caution to the wind. The dull and regimented performances have got us in a position to challenge but it will be performances like this that get us over the line. We’ve still got some big wins to get and I hope to see the same on Saturday against a United side in the gutter.

    I agree with that, it was great to see us attacking and causing the Chavs all sorts of problems.

    But on another day, the defending could have cost us.

    I don't want to take away from a great result, but it is just something that should be noted

    That first half was comical from both teams. We gave the ball away a hell of a lot too, it was painful watching at times. I thought we improved a lot in the second half though and whilst we were never really in control we did look more assured. Xhaka and Elneny especially stepped up second half.

    I agree about the attacking, we looked good going forward all night and caused them all sorts of problems.

    Absolutely.

    Elneny has been pretty solid every time he's come on this season.
    Baffling why he doesn't play more tbh.

    Xhaka needed to step up really and he did well 2nd half.

    Being a miserable old git full of Pessimism. This result was no more than giving us more false hope like last Saturday when the Spuds lost their lunchtime game.

    The best that we can hope for is 5th to avoid the toilet Europa Conference League.

    Thank you and good day!

    Good Post!

    totally agree re Elneny, always thought that

    and very grudgingly i'll admit Xhaka MAY have done one or two things that weren't absolutely terrible...

    Hopefully Xhaka's next step is out the door come the summer

    I do like Elneny recently, he should play far more than he does
