We're great down the right with Cash and Buendia, down the left Mings and Targett, who couldn't cross the road, are creating nothing other than giving the ball back. We need Bailey back asap.

Been critical of him so far but Buendia been class, finding those pockets of space very nicely.

Decent game for a 0-0 and straight after international break.

Get the feeling this is going to be decided off the bench.

How many games did Bailey play for Leverkusen last season? Ings doesn't look anywhere near as effective with Watkins. At the moment the pundits appear to be correct when they said they couldnt play together.

that sums Adama up - all fart no shit

Really? Took a fine save to stop him scoring on a run from the half way line.
yeah, but he's hit it straight at the keeper.

just one really - Ings in, and a good save - think he should have scored though.

For us, Buendia has been terrific, really clever and subtle.

For them, Traoré, has there ever been a player so good at one thing and so naff at everything else?

System-wise - hard to judge, but one thing I will say is a danger of wingback systems is that they tend to have chances fall to them, and as we saw a bit with Cash today and definitely with Targett at Old Trafford that can be sub-optimal.

Martinez a little fortunate as he was going the other way.
