It's maddening that a team capable of controlling the game in the second half like that against Sheffield, is the same team that performed so ignominiously against both Hull and Wigan. Absolutely agree that Barry was fantastic. Agree too with Zinman about that pass. I wanted to see a rerun of Dawson's through ball which with all due respect to Phillip's trickery, was what created that opportunity. You would never have heard the last of it if Pogba or Kante had made such a pass. I did not know Dawson had it in him. His mid- to long-range passing is usually awful.
I felt the second half was the best we have played all season. We looked like a Premier league club with all the "big" players looking class acts.
Moore and Jones must strive harder to keep players' performance levels up in the second half of the season. We still have plenty of very decent players - Sako, Brunt, Morrison and Hoolahan who are capable of making significant, if cameo, contributions.
