Ben Arfa and Cabaye make them tick. Take them out and they're very predictable apart from the front two. That's no good if you can't get it to them and we stopped that very well.

Of course they overachieved, but to be fair they do have more commitments this year, which could also affect their performance.

They're really missing Cabaye.
He's their best player by some distance.

Everyone knew they over achieved, their back for is Championship and apart from 2 players tonight the rest of the squad was too.
Apart from our own errors they never looked like scoring if we were still playing now.

When they're got a fully fit team there a lot better than us, injuries aren't helping them.

When they're got a fully fit team there a lot better than us, injuries aren't helping them. Their fans were adamant that injuries are not to blame for their loss of form. They are only 2 players down from their best 11 and as they pointed out, most teams in the Prem regularly miss 1 or 2 of their best starting line up from injury.

They aren't as good as last season but they still have a few good players - Ba and Cisse are excellent.
They had more fight in them than I expected - Ba and Cisse worked hard to pressure our players as well as looking a threat on the ball.
Felt we had the beating of them ONCE that first goal went in though. They had no answer then.

He's titted around with their formation to try and accommodate Ba and Cisse and it's not working.

Missing players as good as Ben Afra, Cabaye and SHOLA AMEOBI all at the same time will have a big effect though
