One thing I was really happy with today, similar incidents but happened twice in the game.

Watched Jagielka after the game and before going to shake hands he stood there and you could just tell he knew he'd had an absolute shocker. Head down hands on hips looking depressed, then Besic of all people come over to him lift his head up and reassure him. Obviously he's had a shocker but these things happen in football, was great to see. Similar incident was with Mirallas and Besic after the 6th goal with the latter this time cursing himself for the mistake, Mirallas jogs back from the half way line and gives Besic a helping hand. Just two examples today that I thought where to excellent showings of team spirit and compassion within teammates. Was really good to see.

How youve got Mirallas and Lukaku separated by one point baffles me. I like Lukaku but he was woeful today. Gave the ball away countless times, twice which directly led to a goal. His training schedule for the next month should look like this.

Monday - Control the ball.
Tuesday - Protect the ball.
Wednesday - Control the ball.
Thursday - Smash some French/German/Russian teams or Protect the ball.
Friday - Control the ball.
Saturday - Score.
Sunday - Chill.

Mirallas on the other hand was easily our best player. Always looking to drive forward and attack or do something snidey. Brilliant headed goal, very unlucky not to add a second.

Maybe should have gave Kev a 7 instead. Feel free to do your own scores.

Agreed mate. Mirallas was very lively. Lukaku struggled and will always struggle without good suppliers in behind him. He needs someone to release him ASAP.
