Salzburg are not PL standard

Fair but I think some of the runs and movements I've seen in this game shouldn't be hard to employ against some PL teams at least in the bottom half rather than just passing the ball around and hope something happens.

Agreed. Although I think the worst miss was the header from Havertz. Looked easier to score.

For sure. Drogba would have scored twice with that header.

Forced a good save from the keeper to be fair, not sure there's a huge amount more he could have done given the speed at which the ball came to him and the amount of space he had.

A half of two halves there really. Initially the midfield were man-marked and spells of possession weren't really happening; the game was stodgy and attacking moves were truncated. One hilarious fluke from Kovačić opened up the game, and with the extra space the attacking combination of Sterling, Havertz and Kovačić down the left has really thrived, it's been great to watch. We've created a couple of big chances, hope we play some more sexy football and put a few more goals past them.

Sterling is wasted at wing-back though, so is that other guy on the right, I forget his name.

should have gone around the goalkeeper realising the keeper was closing off the angle and he was too close to lift it over

@mojo can we get a kitless Kova gif to celebrate this seasons goal?

I'd warm up Carney and Broja now. Potter should warn both Aubameyang and Havertz if no improvement is seen in the net 15 minutes they will be off. 

That’s gonna be a pen 

Chalobah had twice as many touches as Jorginho in that half ... 76 to 38 !

Who shot Jorginho?

That’s what happens when u don’t put ur chances away 

here we go

We need a second goal.  I don't have faith in a clean sheet here.

FFS

Oh f**k!

They do what Aubamyang hasn't been doing.

Phew about the penalty claim, but I relaxed too soon. You just know, don't you.

No so they just score from open play instead…

Blew our chance to kill this game. We never learn

How disgustingly predictable 

Whoops

They are just like a PL team!

Southampton maybe ?

Typical sh*t

Why can’t our attackers finish off as easily as they do?
