It’s almost like we were the better team, against the best team in the country. Madness!!! 

That bar has been set pretty high now. Might be all down hill from here!.

There was definately more crosses going in the box yesterday or attempted crosses that resulted in corners.

Simplicity in the corners. Just keep putting the ball the the back post, we have the tall players, so not a great deal Arsenal can do about it.

I don't thing we played for or won half enough corners under Lampard and hence we did score many. 

[Fosse Captain]

We got the ball in attacking areas and were always looking to get it in the box. 

We made the Arsenal defenders have to defend. That brought corners, which creates pressure.

I thought we were fantastic all game.  Simple and structured. 4-5-1.  Hard work, passion and desire. 

Probably deserved to win by a coupe of goals.  

[Gwlad]

Dom should have had two and Onana and Doucs one a piece - would have helped GD. I'll settle for 1-0 though.

Proof that football isn't rocket science it's about getting the basics right, and I trust that Dyche is well capable of delivering that.

Everyone, stop what you're doing. Bailey has liked this! He thinks we were the better team in a game!

THIS IS NOT A FUCKING DRILL!

He is right though. Arsenal played well, they were trying to do the things that they do week in week out and we stopped them and managed to impose ourselves on them instead.

It is one game, so lets see what happens in the weeks that come but that was as good as I have seen from us for a long time!

Exactly right. The next performance is crucial or the one before doesn’t matter.

If we can find that level of performance against Arsenal consistently, we will be okay.

I agree with tempering our excitement. We are entitled to enjoy the win. God knows we've waited long enough but these players have not shown me anything that suggests they can be consistent - the talent is clearly there with some of them and maybe a new Manager can unlock consistency but we need to pull the reigns a bit on players like McNeil - yes it was much better but show me again and then again and I'll start to believe it was the prior managers fault and not the players application. 
 

That said, I'd rather be writing that on the back of 3 glorious points than bemoaning another shambolic effort.

 

[RuffRob]

What will really decide our fate this season is upping the performance and results in all the games we are expected to win or take something from. We have dropped the ball in some 6pointers already, and this is the reason we are in the position we are in. 

Playing Liverpool away will look after itself. They are still massive favorites, so could take the wind out of our sales.

Leeds at home in just over 10 days time is a big game. They are likely to have that new manager feel when they come.

Man I seriously miss getting a steak bake from Gregg’s.

He'll get a bonus of £3.5m if he keeps us up.

I don't want to put the link on because it's from the Mail.

Saw that, buttons compared to what we'd lose if he doesn't.

It wasn't a complaint. If he keeps us up he'll have definitely earned it.

Wish we had Gregg's in America.  Quick sausage roll and tea to go? Yes please.

Not sure what our equivalent is? Maybe 7-11? Starbucks? Those are both crap.

Bagel and a Coffee from some street vendor???? Perhaps I've just watched too many US TV Shows. They always seem to be grabbing a bagel from someone on the sidewalk (MikeO - yes I changed it to resonate..I know the correct term is pavement...or path where I'm from )

Yeah New York is absolutely great for that and shops are everywhere and lots of shows are filmed there.  Most states in America have shit bagels if any at all.  Haha.  Have had friends bring me a baker's dozen from NY when they are traveling south.

[Shukes]

Trust me you would think of Greg’s just as you do Everton.

Fucking frustrating. Corn beef pasty please…. Fuck sake why is it cold, can you warm it up? No it’s against our health and safety rules. Next day I go in thinking, it will be hot this time.

Its like going to Everton every week thinking it’s all going to change.

A perfect match.  Haha.

I've never heard of Gregg's, I must confess. Searched online, and it looks a bit like Subway or Panera Bread - very ordinary. Why has it earned a reputation?

Nothing like either. Greggs is love, Greggs is life. 

Basically a competitor of Sayers. 

They also make an amazing Christmas jumper.

I had an undercooked croissant from Greggs this morning. Still devastated now.

There's a cart right by my work that makes the best bacon egg and cheese on a roll. And it's 5 fucking dollars. 

This city is so damn expensive but every now and then you find the gems

[Romey 1878]

Imagine comparing Greggs, a bakers, to Subway.

Fucking hell.

Eldest at uni in Preston. Greggs, meat and potato or potato and meat pasty. Makes sense.
