Watched the game about eight times now, and just a couple of points maybe not been mentioned. Mori will be ok if he's told not to cross the halfway line. Gave the ball away on a few occasions were we could have been punished. I still think RK will be looking for another centre half in the summer.
Mirallas needs to be told he is starting every game. Very much a confidence player, and fight now his confidence is rightly ski high. Would start with him and maybe bring Lookman on for the last fifteen.
On another point looking forward to Soccer AM on Saturday, Davies flick between the two defenders prior to his goal has to be on there.

You don't tell anyone that they are starting every game, otherwise what's the point in having competition for places.

I agree with you Mike S but I also know what Woburnblue means about Mirallas being a confidence player. I was telling NBTB about 4 weeks ago that Mirallas was starting to show signs of a return to form. Lots of fans had written him off. Said we should get rid. but his ability was never in doubt.
His career has always involved assists and goals up until our tactics changed under Martinez. He just seemed to lose his Mojo. But I could see him really trying hard to get involved in games a couple of weeks ago. I think Koeman has got him back to where he was under Moyes. He might still have bad games, but on that form, he is one of the first on the team sheet for sure!

Hahaha. Woburn you sound like me mate. The wifes nut is done in as I've watched it 3 or 4 times all over again myself.
I wish the next game would bloody hurry up!
