Oh, and Ozil, Cazoral and Sanchez don't even look like they're on the pitch. To stop that trio as well as our mids have done takes a lot.

We're the better team and should be in front, simple as that. f*cking Cech keeping them in the game...

All 5 of our midfielders have looked great, and so has Benteke. Really everybody is playing relatively well, even Gomez is playing alright. He doesn't look as shaken as I expected, tho still scares the Sh*t out of me every time he touches the ball.

This is the first time in MONTHS that we've looked like a team. The defence is working well, the midfield protecting the back line and our striker moving and looking dangerous. It's a long way to go, but I'm optimistic!

We got another huge slice of luck with Ramseys goal but to be fair no way did we deserve to walk off that pitch one down.
Some really encouraging performances out there from Benteke, Can, Milner and especially Coutinho.

Need to stop sitting back this much or they'll score. We parked the bus too early.

Ibe is a good substitution there. I think Firmino has played well, but the way we're playing now we need somebody to counter attack with, and Ibe is probably the best chance we've got at that.

Gomez is looking much better defensively this half. He's not just winning tackles, they're very good tackles from difficult places. He's not good in the air, especially if there's a lot of time to think about it, but he can grow into that.

I thought Ibe would be a bit more positive than this.... He's still just dribbling until he loses the ball almost every time he gets it.

Agree, he's limited.

I'd bring on Ings for the final 10 mins. Big Ben looks shot through.

Full time. 0-0...

Lots of positives from today. Our defence have finally started playing together and our midfield is looking good too. Thought we dropped off when Ibe came on though and hung on for the draw. Still. it's progress...
