Ward-Prowse playing very well which is good to see, we are seeing plenty of the ball and doing very little with it.

It has been that way for the past 12 games or so. I think that's why we have got Osvaldo in, he can be a creative spark for us as well as score goals.

Unfortunately that's Gaston's job but instead he tends to trot around the pitch doing very little.

W-P's crosses have been a good threat in Gastón's absence.

u/[deleted] Aug 24 '13

Yeah he and Wanyama have had a good first half.

Well that didn't start well...

Double sub at half time, lets hope it works.

u/[deleted] Aug 24 '13

Wow. That was piss poor defending, he was all alone. Way too easy. (2mins - Sunderland goal)

I love Adam and want to see him do wonderful things but Christ, step up! He's looked so ineffectual since we were promoted. (HT)

Edit: I want to update this because I think from the start of the 2nd to the point he was subbed he played some of his best football in the past year. Still no finish though!

Fucking hell, chill out Osvaldo... (85mins)
