but they hv DDG to thank if not for him, they could hv easily been beaten in the 1st half as he had to save many times from their strikers esp their goalscorer Alcacer...unexpectedly his god son Fred n Lingard came on to help spark the last minute attack which led to their final goal scored by CR7....this forgotten son has now proven to be really a goalscorer or provider for the team outshining the exp 78 million Sancho who is just a squad player unable to score or assist in any goal ..the knucklehead has survived another match |

I think when I dun get the team right, they win... 
Anyway, it was all Villarreal in the first half, only DDG and errant shooting by Villarreal kept us in the game. Could easily have been 0-3 down by half time.
Wonder if Scholes has been schooling Telles - that was one scorcher right out of Scholesy' arsenal.... what a volley from the edge of the box! Goal of the month for me, hands down.
Good call on 2-1, Rickey.
On to the toffees....
Here's a little funny clip describing our mood....

Telles fantastic equaliser was a beauty...stake his claim with Shaw good performance recently pinning him down.
A lucky win perhaps.
Once again, OGS job was saved!

Yes, u r right lacoruna, come to think of it, it was a lucky win...if not for DDG heroics saving so many attacks by enemy strikers they would hv been down by at least 3 goals by half time, not to mention the 2nd half....their performance last night was still bad n they would hv been punished by better teams like Atalanta perhaps ??..though still not up to the high standards expected of them, it was still way better than how they played against West Ham, Young Boys n A.V. recently in which they lost all 3
