Positives - We got the 3 points playing in 2nd gear and Dossena looks much better than Riise in terms of basic technical skills e.g. passing, crossing, defending etc and has better game intelligence.

Dont give a sh!t if we play like that every week and win, Chelsea have played like that for years,

Weve played brilliant in some games 30 odd shots on goal and come away beaten or with a draw.

Champions play sh!t but still get a win.

I stand by that, 1-0 is not convincing but then neither's the way we've been playing. I was surprised Rafa started Plessis and not Alonso, a little surprised he recalled Hyypia as well.

That one chance where Keane and Torres went for the same ball worries me, lack of communication and familiarity playing with each other. Are the Kuyt bashers giving him any credit today? Overall it was a better performance, if the performances continue to improve and early on results go our way, then we could launch a title challenge. But we've played two pretty ordinary teams, struggled to dominate and scored just one goal while being less than convincing in keeping clean sheets

Pretty much repeating what the more sensible posts have been.

We played very poorly, lucky to get a win. THANK GOD for Nandos Peri Peri Sauce! He might even score more than last season!

Happy that we got the 3pts, not happy that we have Kuyt playing on the right, he isnt and never will be a winger. Dear oh dear Rafa Gaffa what on earth are you doing? We need a RM and badly, sort it out son, its freakin irratating!

Dossena was OK, I think he will be a better player than the red haired cretin. Keane had an off game, will need to drastically improve tho.

Are the Kuyt bashers giving him any credit today


Owzat .. Did you ever give Crouch credit when he played and scored.

Nah didnt think so, I reckon you should button it about the "Kuyt bashers" as your not exactly the ideal poster when it comes to givin praise where its due.

kuyt-bashers are still bashing kuyt...  :laugh:  even when some of his movements in the 2nd half were quite good and forced some saves out of sunderland's keeper... even when moved into the second striker role his movements cause more problems than keane's...

It was a poor performance yesterday certainly in the first half. We did however take charge in the second half and imo a goal was always coming, and if the Ref had given the dead cert penalty for the assault on Benayoun it would have been a more comfortable win.

Biggest disappoint for me was yet another less than sparkling performance from Robbie Keane, and Rafa's decision to once again play Plessis, don't care what anyone says the lad is not ready to be starting in a key role in our midfield. This may invite the cry "here's gotta get playing time to develop" fair enough, give him that in tin cup games or coming off the bench when we're already comfortable.

On the up side, despite early misgiving Dossena's looking better (although I still prefer Aurelio) and best of all Torres has picked up where he left off.

Only the first game, we will play far far  better than we did yesterday and come away with nothing, but in the meantime we got the three points and for that I'm happy.

You have to wonder if Torres isn't better playing alone, not having to link up with or worry where Keane is. The mess they made of the rebound off the keeper when Keane blocked Torre's shot was pure farce. I thought Rafa got his substitutions right, I don't always agree with them but I think had he got them wrong it could have been 0-0 or worse.

Bamaga man - yes I did, I didn't go OTT but then I didn't spend whole threads bashing Crouch when Liverpool played badly. Big ZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzz if you're going to drag Crouch into it every time someone mentions Kuyt, it was boring enough as a reaction when Crouch was still here.

So you with your stats worry about how strikers understand eachother after ONE competitive game??
they went for the same ball??
Id be more worried if no one went near it...ffs wise up!
Bad game and terribly drawn out but 3 points in the bag and we really cant go anywhere but upwards!

I'd be interested in the views of retired refs, taking the advantage back when you could argue a case for that penalty

If Plessis is going to play it should be cup games, like you say, or at least home games against the weaker opposition that we have no doubts we're going to beat. You can always bring him on, you waste a substitution if you have to replace a player at half time.

Hope you're right, I was dreading a draw and the continuation of our achilles heel. Hopefully Rafa will tweak the attack a little and when Mascherano comes back we'll see more convincing performances.
