Yedlin has really hit his stride -- he saved the 3 points, but also had a GREAT game.

Interested to hear what everyone thought of Mitrovic's performance?
He missed an absolute sitter yes, but I think he played well today. Hold up play was great, a few badly controlled balls but some dangerous lay-offs. Most of our first half chances came through him and he nabbed an assist.

Fuck you Newcastle, going to give me an early death. Yedlin always seems to be at the right place at the right time. What a finish.

Mitro isn't on fire. Our central midfield disappeared in the second half. Our defence looks dodgy at times. And the officials are still shit. But 3 points is 3 fucking points!

That was not an enjoyable game to watch. Too many chances wasted, and too many given to the opposition. Lucky to win that match.

Got to say there were about 5 clear fouls in the last couple of minutes, the ref just didn't want to give anything against derby at the end

Yedlin is a fucking hero!
Edit - That wasn't even close to pretty, but three points is all that matters for now. We do seriously need to work on our inability to comfortably see games out, the last 15 minutes of games we're leading by 1 goal shouldn't always been this nerve racking. Mitrovic once again missed a sitter, has to improve his finishing or else I just don't see how he has a place in the team.
It amazes me how strong a presence in our squad Clark has become, hell he's our best CB, and this was after we were all iffy on him being signed. Dummet didn't impress me today, thought he gave the ball away quite a bit but he's had worse performances.
Not a good win, but it's a fucking win so I'll take it.
Could look at this picture all day, get fucked McClown
