The style of the football was the thing that surprised me. We could've won 6-0 and it wouldn't make me think we were doing anything better. But the pace and accuracy of the passing was on another level from what we've been used to seeing in recent years. Even some players we might consider technically weak were showing instant control when the ball was being fired at them. In some plays (forgive the americanism), we was (forgive the cockneyism) pinging it about every split-second but, most importantly, with the view to moving forward. We had players bursting forwards. Everything was done with good speed. After seasons of Cesc's Arsenal, going from side to side, taking 50 touches, waiting for somebody to make a run, I didn't think we had this sort of thing in us. It was only West Brom but it's incredible hard for any team to stop that sort of quick movement and precision when played properly. 'It was only West Brom' is also the sort of thing that has prevented us from getting consistent results; it was a very professional performance.
