Yes, he looked a broken man at the end. Wish he would retire.

Good result, just disappointed we didn't tear into them in the second half. It was just like.... oh well, we may as well close down the shop.

Won without having to break a sweat. We'll need to be much better though as Newcastle are absolutely rank.
No bad performances. Glad for Ollie to break his drought. Marv did well and won so much in the middle. Konsa MOTM as he was brilliant, especially second half.

Yeah I love that about Trez, head in hands as if he’d missed a chance in the last minute of a champions league final

I think (hope!) you are.
He looked absolutely whacked when he came off - no energy left. Maybe Mr Covid has left his mark on him.

i'm starting to like targett he had a good game
Not a complaint, merely an observation, that was a real training ground stroll, but we didnt seem to create that many openings.
The final ball around the edge of the box was given away too many times.
We were like a knife through butter at times but wasted a fair bit of possesion.
A bit more clinical and that would have been a slaughter.

Difficult to play against a team defending a two goal deficit. Soooo....Bruce
We were rusty second half. Really slack.
But if we had match to be in then I honestly think we would have sharpened up. Fact is we didn’t need to. Strange second half all in all .

Jack looked exhausted when he came off. Not a bad decision; we have to be able to play without him.

Marv was interesting to watch tonight. Really assured from him, but he doesn't half slow the game down. I never feared when he was in possession, but a few moments aside, didn't see him offering much going forward.
If we ever decided to sell him, any team that parks the bus would be all over him. Perhaps he has a place in some matches - could he have brought about some calm last Wednesday?

He‘s not there to offer things going forward.
I thought he was superb tonight. Does what it says on the tin. Get it, give it to the players that can.

It was very chilled wasn't it. We played as if it was a training match. Never looked like conceding though, so it doesn't bother me! Remember shitting yourself last year being 2-0 up at half time?
