As well as Dembélé, Brad Friedel and Jan Vertonghen both had great
games, in Agatha’s humble opinion. She’s still not sure about Bale’s roaming
role, but she did like Sandro playing deeper. Adebayor coming on in the second half also injected some spark into the play. It has been a bit of
a frantic transfer window week, and it is going to take some time for our new manager
to shape his team. Remember, we’ve lost Van der Vaart and Modric, Leldley has
gone, and Scott Parker and Younes Kaboul are both out with injury.
Agatha felt uncomfortable at the match today, but it wasn’t the
action on the field that was the problem. Don’t you hate it when you are sat
next to so called fans, who complain loudly throughout the match about how effing
useless their own players are? Substituting Huddleston for Defoe did seem an ill-judged
decision, and Villas Boas sure got a lot a lot of stick for that from Mouth Man
and mates (after the equaliser went in). And the referee and one linesman did
make some dubious decisions. But booing at the end of the game? Not in my
name, please. All that negativity floating around – so wearing. What's the betting that when our
season tickets (eventually) come up, we’ll be sat next to them …
Agatha and Mildred
