Nobody should be be complaining or getting frustrated with that win over the blunts. Yes some of the players looked a little tired, that’s because they’ve just come back from International duties. Just because they are bottom of the table doesn’t mean we should beat them 5-0. Blunts, in most of their games have only lost by one goal and they beat Man Utd.
Thought we played very well especially in the first half. Stand out players for me in order were Llorente, Roberts and Dallas.
It’s going to be a very tough game against Citeh, but I think we’ll give them a scare. Onwards and Upwards.

OP Good post. It's a quality we're developing. Winning ugly. Matching physicality. Berm shall be pleased. Llorente as I predicted along with Brighty when we first acquired him makes real difference and adds a steel to spine. We still lose to Citeh and no doubt Harrison will not be eligible to play. Time for Costa to shine.

Agree OP, and George. No complaints, Sheffield desperately wanted to beat us and although we allowed them a sloppy goal on our part was happy how we battled. Not expecting anything from the city game to be honest just hope we go and give it a go.

Not sure. Think roberts liorente and harrison good.
Think we looked excellent going forward all be it with woeful finishing. But always seem to make wrong decisions in defence. Just had Easter lunch with Arsenal and Manc fan and although they like what we have achieved they think we will not survive next season. Manc fan said based on last night he is expecting 6 more.
It’s great to win and I get so excited and impressed going forward but when we are defending. Anything can happen.
Thought mez was good too. He is gaining experience and learning quickly.

Can’t have a clean sheet every match of the season Aus.
We didn’t concede from a set piece either yesterday!

well Aus, Man Utd fans opinions are always good for a giggle and gooners will say anything to distract from their abysmal performances at the moment so I wouldn't give much credence to them. As everyone realises now, this pheonix is only going to rise and rise, they are probably just worried ;)
