A well written piece and very true. Pity poeple dwelt on spelling rather than content. Hughes says we have strength in depth. The reality is these games show we haven't! Yes, some good points, but dude, he spelt the name of FOUR players wrong. I'm just glad we sold Knightly and Palacious.

Muniesa was hilariously bad last night. I'd be interested to hear what Bayernoatcake has to say about his performance. bayernoatcake will say he was awesome and it was all Wolly's fault.

Since Xmas it feels like teams bring their A game to us. Definitely don't remember the big teams pressing us so intently like Liverpool and ManU did. Still don't understand how we haven't got a CB on loan as cover though. They press us because they know we crumble when pressed.

We dont have anyone in the team that just runs with the ball and commits defenders. Moses was a bit of a sicknote but when he got the ball on the wing he was always direct and got us on the front foot. Instead we just pass it around and put ourselves under pressure.

The positive I've taken is that I expected to be walking funny and feel a bit sore after two major bummings like that!!

I didn't watch. As soon as the team was announced I knew we had lost and I haven't got owt to watch it on. Until now, so my musings will be spreading to away games. You lucky, lucky people!

Why do people have so much trouble spelling the names of their own players correctly? Maybe this Muniesta fella is a hybrid of Iniesta, a mix of defensive brilliance and offensive genius. Could be exactly what we need. Who does he play for? I saw it as a mix of Muniesa and Nesta

Muniesa was hilariously bad last night. I'd be interested to hear what Bayernoatcake has to say about his performance. He was no better or worse than he's been on some previous occasions, only last night he got found out. I'm still trying to decide whether his ploy of following the ball, even if it drags him 40-50yds out of position, is his own brainless plan, or whether Hughes really does think it's OK for one of his Centre-Halves to "freestyle it". He's only been doing it since he arrived here, so maybe we think it's OK - otherwise, it's not particularly difficult to coach into him, is it?
