August 2009 when Arsenal embarrassed us on the opening day.Can't remember when I last saw us concede six at Goodison. I've just had the painful experience of watching it again on MOTD, which wasn't pleasant, but it's not all bad, just feels that way at moment.
Fabregas played in that one too.August 2009 when Arsenal embarrassed us on the opening day.
Christ, you're right.August 2009 when Arsenal embarrassed us on the opening day.
He scored as well. At least we played well (offensively today), that performance back then was woeful of the highest order.Fabregas played in that one too.
I do, and I had a horrible sinking feeling after Leicester and Arsenal but today I don't. I dunno, maybe it's because it seems to me like Chelsea are title favourites. Mostly I think it's because conceding 2 goals in the first 3 minutes is a freak occurrence, and it totally changed to complexion of the game. I really thought it would end 0-2 and I'm pretty proud of our players for fighting back against a team that was only looking to sit deep and counter attack after they went two ahead.Agree with most of that but i am starting to worry about the defence. I think people are right to express some concern don't you?
There were certainly big positives to take from the game. Showed great character and to score 3 vs Chelsea under Mouriniho is very impressive. Mirallas, Naismith and Eto'o took their goals really well too. But when the defence is that we won't achieve anything.I do, and I had a horrible sinking feeling after Leicester and Arsenal but today I don't.

We might score 100 but will concede 120!
Another way of looking at it would be that we have 1 point from games we got 6 from last season.
Agree there is still things to be positive about, especially our attacking play
