Said before thew game that i fancied us, and that was assuming that Gabby or Heskey would be playing.
We are not far off a very good team.I personally think MON did a good job, but under Hou, the passing, and slowly but surely, the movement is much better than under MON.
When we get a more mobile foward playing, a la Gabby, then the clever balls of Ireland, and the ability of AYoung and Downing to pick a pass, will improve us dramatically.
NRC is competent at the moment, as is Petrov on sats performance, but to move up we need better than these 2.
Beye, for me is better than LYoung, and had a very solid game on sat, his pace puts him ahead of LYoung for me, but we probably need a better RB.
Overall, i thoiught Chelsk in the 2nd half looked a good team, with Cashley in partic playing very well, but we deserved the point, and had the better chances.
For me we are not far off a top 4 team.
