First half was what we were on Thursday - second much nearer to what we need to be.
Switching Adama & Neto narrowed them in & stopped Traore & Semedo trying to occupy the same space.
The penalty was one of those you have seen given & not. For me it was as Bertrands left arm was well out & blocked the cross off. Have seen it said that Jose could have taken it given that he needs to score - not for me as we really needed that impetus so get the best taker we have in Neves to step up.
Still on the fence as to how much Jose brings - will give him another couple of games, but if there's not much more then don't want to make it permanent and almost going with giving Fabio the rest of the time this season - he's not the answer yet & lacks pace (was outrun by Ward Prowse when if he had got there first would have been clear) but it will give more learning time & we are probably no worse off.
Also inclined to pass the corner FK's to Neto now - I have loved seeing Moutinho here, but feel that the decline has started so maybe needs to be eased into the 'senior citizen' role with less importance placed on him.
