Good goal but it's a stinker of a finish from Welbeck, very lucky to shin that in.

Disagree I think it was a very good finish to a ball that had bounced awkwardly.

Someone seems to have told wilshere that the job of a defensive midfielder is to: a) not provide any defensive cover, b) when you get the ball drive at the opposition, vacating the midfield, before losing it and opening yourself up to the counter and c) playing aimless forty yard balls behind their defence

I think he just misjudged the bounce and got lucky, doesn't matter much though.

Well all of the above were good enough for Lampard and Gerard for over a decade as part of a midfield two that were supposed to cover all the bases, so why shouldn't it be good enough for Fag Ash Jack

That's a penalty for me, won the ball but with a scissor tackle, lucky boy.

Gary Cahill, England Captain (in a competitive match), I called that when he was 19/20.

He should be full time captain.

It should also be 'Gary Cahill, captain of Aston Villa and England'
