Stand outs against West Ham…..
The sublime 60 yard plus cross field pass to Zaha in the first half and in turn the instant control by him.
His open play marking of Antonio including the ‘throw down’ at the end which Pawson
deemed wasn’t booking worthy.

His overall positive contribution to the team in general.
Well done Joachim!

Bring back Brolin

He went through a difficult patch after the World Cup but in my opinion has returned to top form and that includes his passing.

Bring back Brolin

He does make exquisite passes but often under no pressure when the opposition are not engaged in a 'Press'.I accept his long range passing accuracy to the flanks is admirable.

Playing in central defence with the play in front of one is totally different from playing in midfield.Whilst I admire Andersen's passing prowess, in my humble opinion he lacks the mobility to be effective in a defensive midfield role.

Absolutely brilliant footballer ,passing first class and sees whats in front of him in getting us up the pitch .

Needs to work on his defensive decision making and be more assertive .(like claiming the near post on Saturday) Niether him nor Guehi seem to want to be 'the man' which leads to some indecision . I think if one of them took control both would become better for it .

And we still need a striker

Im not saying he should turn into Andy Linighan just to be responsible for the defensive unit .Maybe Im a bit of a football dinosaur but there doesn't seem to be a lot of shouting at each other apart from when Wilf got subbed (lol)

And we still need a striker

True enough.

Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.
