Dont agree with the cm shout we had nothing to aim for today was no hold up play at all to bring the cm into the game. Was a tough game today hopefully in jan we csn bring in more to add depth to the squadAntonio is better than Rondon
Soucek and Rice as a pairing are better than Doucoure and Allan
Behrama / Bowen are better than Iwobi and Gordon
Their defence is better bar Mina + Digne although on form Cresswell is better than Digne this season.
Their entire bench is stronger than ours with the likes of Vlasic and Yarmolenko and they haven't had an injury crisis to deal with.
So basically only Gray, Townsend, Pickford and possibly Doucoure I would have as upgrades on them man for man today (ironically two of the four are Benitez signings) - but apparently we should be beating them easily...
