It wasn’t a bad header, just lacked conviction, a bit of ooomph.

He was unmarked, five yards from goal, with the ball plopping perfectly on the middle of his forehead and the keeper didn't really have to excel himself to keep it out.

Any header that doesn't land in the net in those circumstances can't really be considered anything but a bad header in my opinion.

Emery was going absolutely nuts at one point in the 1st half and it appeared to be in Guessand's direction!  He did improve 2nd half.

Guessand was fortunate he was on the other side of the pitch to Emery! Watkins doesn't score before half time and I think it's a sure thing Guessand gets hooked. We pressed them a lot harder from the front after half time and he certainly helped there.

Yep, fair enough.

He improved 2nd half which wasn’t difficult. His team “mates” clearly don’t rate him as passing to him isn’t part of their thinking. It’s something of a dilemma for Emery, he must have sanctioned his signing and has to play him to justify his decision which is becoming more difficult by each game.

Do we know how many times he actually did touch the ball in that first half? I noticed just the one.
