Cursed to fuck now. I'm off to stick Torres, Ba and Eto'o into mine.

I'm going to be the pessimistic one and say im not getting carried away at the moment. We have beaten to promoted teams 1-0 and a terrible Norwich 2-0, with another 1-0 v Swansea and a toothless 1-0 loss at Woolwich where (in my opinion) we never even looked like troubling them too much.
We should be beating the teams we have done, I think we we find out more about this team against the likes of the Chelsea's of this league, after all, we are competing more directly with them.
Obviously given time, we hopefully get better and better as the new players gel - I still think though its not going to be easy for us to get top 4 this season.
Not having a whinge in any way - just saying im not getting carried away just yet.
Of course if we beat Chelsea I will fully expect us to win the league.

Sorry. Our failings? We haven't failed.
You can have failings and not fail....you do realise that? You been on Vino fella? Your coming off all Audere.
Failing to create chances for Soldado. Or Soldado failing to convert chances would be 1 small area of concern.
While we are winning it can be overlooked but it will be expected for him to add some goals to his game.
Maybe not the be all and end all but we paid a lot of money for him to be a "world class" goalscorer.
Also Eriksen didn't create a goal today. Bloody 1 match wonder.

We are second in the league. On goal difference.
We've conceded one goal.
We've won four from five.
The loss was 1-0 away to the team in first.
I agree with this. Some people are too sensitive to any criticism about the team.
It's perfectly OK for people to have critical viewpoints and bring them up here; save your 'dislikes' for posts that actually deserve it, and not posts that give an opinion you don't agree with.
Why can't we just enjoy it?
It's not like AVB is going to listen to us.

We've played 4 teams likely to be scrapping relegation.
We have beaten 3 of them one nil
We have scored only 3 goals from open play
Our only real test we failed.
Oh look I can make sweeping statements too.

It's true we should be beating the likes of Norwich, Palace, Cardiff. But it's also true we often didn't beat teams like that. So you've gotta take positives from that.
I was angry about the scum game cos the manager didn't seem to have a clue with his subs IMO but the results have been coming in while we adjust as a new team. This team clearly has a lot of potential and at this early stage we've looked one of the strongest teams in the league. So I feel fairly optimistic.

i wouldn't worry to much about the lack of goals from open play, it will come. the amount of possession we have and chances we create is all there. there's a lot of new players in this team and there still trying to find each others rhymes. and if we are not happy that we have played 5 won 4 lost 1 conceded just 1, well then that just shows how far we have come.
Right. I don't play those childish keyboard warrior games.
Shudder!
To be fair, we look quite likely with Naughton on the back pass.
No no no.....think. Happy. Thoughts
Never in danger. Did you honestly not just expect Hugo to be standing there when their striker looked up?To be fair, we look quite likely with Naughton on the back pass.
