I thought we played reasonably well considering that we played for the majority of the game with 10 men, incidentally, I didn't think it deserved a Red card, definitely a penalty, no arguments there. We defended well and to Poch's credit he continued to attack, once West Ham went down to 10 men I thought we outplayed them and certainly didn't deserve to lose, and the way in which Dier took that goal showed calmness beyond his years. Yes there are still some things to be sorted out in defence but I think that with time it will happen, and the signs are looking very promising. Overall a very encouraging performance.
Well Done Poch and the Lads, a good way to start the season.
