Of course I wished Vitor the best and hoped we'd get a win today (or at very least, not lose, because I think that would have been us done) but I didn't see that coming at all. What a damning indictment on Gary O'Neil and his no tactics. Turns out you can get players to stand in the right place if you ask them to.
We actually used Joao Gomes and André as we should have done all along and guess what, turns out Brazilian international midfielders are alright if you use them properly. Just generally a lack of chaos and even as limited as three quarters of that starting defence is - there wasn't the sense of perpetual panic that there has been for nearly an entire year.
Didn't think Guedes had that kind of first half performance in him. Credit where it's due, I might hate him and he might be a monument to Fosun's post-2020 folly, but he was excellent.
Leicester were dreadful all over the park and their fans need to have a fucking word with themselves. Danny Ward might be crap but he's your keeper in an ongoing crucial game. Maybe save your criticism for the pub or the Internet afterwards, support your fucking players while they're out there. That's your job. Knobheads.
We're back in the fight. We don't look a lost cause. All you can ask really, now let's build on it as Man Utd are evidently still crap and Tottenham can do Tottenham things whenever. And enjoy your Sunday night, I certainly will.
