Poor first half for us...though we made as many chances as Napoli, we never looked in complete control...SHame about Camo, he was looking likely to continue his decent run of form...was it the elbow that caught him??? Still, stitched up he should be right for the champions league game next week. His replacement, tiago, whilst naturally not suited to the wing, is doing a fine job there so far...Melo more feckless and reckless, than useful presently...he needs to improve if the team is to come to life more. as without momo, he needs to be the fulcrum. Poulsen cant handle such a position, or even support it...i am fast losing patience with the dane.
Wicked cross by Goblin for a superbly anticipated and taken header by trez...i havent enjoyed a goal we have scored that much for a long time...I guess I hold a special affection for the frenchman. pleased as punch for the fucker...world class smash and grab. vintage trez even...
we need another goal, at least, to put the game beyond napoli.
The only bonus of melo's sloppy thuggery, is that he seems to truly hurt players when he mauls them. after they get back to their feet, they are less than what hey were...melo deserves some credit for that.
