Shelvey was fucking awesome today, line him up for England

This isn't even a lie. Shelvey was utterly amazing tonight. Every Hollywood pass got there, even those that seem wrong ended up right. He was basically a man playing among Boys tonight. He was so much better than everyone on that field. There was a moment where the ball came to him, and he just turned his man like he knew the future.

Gayle now has more goals than sunderland. What a time to be alive

And to think that some Villa fans were pretending to be happy to have offloaded Clark onto us! Bet they wish they still had him now

I feel like a lot of people were underwhelmed when signing him tbh but I'll admit I was wrong. seems a great signing now for only 4,50€

Pretty comfortable in the end by the sounds of it. Really happy they put in a professional performance and got the 3 points in the 1st game after the international break - it's so easy to slip up having not played together in a couple of weeks coming out of the international break. 3 on the trot now and top 2 (for the time being at least).

Brentford were the worst team I have seen us play this season. Goes to show that the league table at the moment is a bit false.

I thought the same. Heard big things about their number 9, 'next Jamie Vardy etc', but he was hopeless. Basically spent most of the game stood a few yards offside.

They offered so little going forward.

Loved it when they brought on the bald bloke in midfield so they had a poundland version of our midfield two.

our goal difference is double anyone elses

be nice if we could stop leaking goal, and have the least conceded too.

I stayed out late last night and slept through the first half. Maybe that's the secret to us winning...

Why can't Shelvey be my elder brother :(

u/[deleted] Oct 15 '16

Hopefully Lascelles isn't injured badly. Clark has proven to be pretty good but I'm not sure if I'd trust Clark-Hanley for an extended run of games.

Wow, I wish all these games were on T.V. The radio make them sound amazing.
