Phoenix Blue

He is on the field right now coming off the subs bench for Milan

Thanks Droy, well said mate.

Refreshing isn't it :))

Well said mate, glad someone understands his role, I thought he had a really good game and maybe people should start getting off this "Jorghino is crap bullshit"

Really!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mate you really need to see the glass half full instead of half empty

This has been a really good performance by the lads far better team on the night.

I think we have been the better side and Spurs for me have been ordinary, this is certainly a much better performance than we had there last time. The offside call for me was correct as Kane's head/body was ahead of Azpi therefore it was offside, unfortunate, but what do we expect these days.

He is either leaving or he is saving him for Spurs

I think if he had scored the pen it would have been disallowed, he didn't stutter he stopped?

Would have been a foul anywhere else on the pitch, but because we are wearing blue definitely not a pen? As for this match, its like watching groundhog day all huff and puff and no end product and until we have two full backs that can get up and down the wings and actually cross a ball, as well as a striker who knows how to put away the ball in the net, this unfortunately will not change. I have said this before, fourth place is going to be a very difficult proposition for us this season and even more so now that Man U have started to get into mix.

I understand what you are saying and sure I want to see their GK worked more but overall we hit the post twice and Giroud was denied two great goals and if had been wearing the red of Liverpool would have stood. My only gripe was how we decided to sit back for the last 10 minutes and allow the chance for Palace to equalize. Anyway two really good away wins at Watford and Palace, this is a good thing, yes??

Poor performance mate?? I just don't understand what game some of you watch sometimes.

Thanks Martin, top post mate and I can't find anything to add to it, just to say I agree 100% of what you said above.

yep that all resulted from Rudiger's shocking header, Kepa makes the save and they get a corner and they score

I was just catching up reading the posts from the game yesterday as its pretty early here in the US when I noticed a post stating that Jorghino may not be the right man to build the team around. You know what I have always been a fan of his but this mental fragility in the team certainly emanates from him, he is weak on ball and most definitely weak in a defending sense. This player who we all thought would be the conductor of the team cannot do this in the PL, as much as I hate to admit it I have been wrong about him. Obviously that doesn't excuse some of the other players who also fall into this category, but his presence in the side is supposed to be the cornerstone on which all our success will depend upon. Therefore that leaves Sarri with a huge problem, because his whole philosophy is based on this system and I am not sure if he is capable of changing it. Of course you could argue that adding the right players to make the system work would therefore help Jorghino fulfill his potential, I am not sure.
