haha yeah noticed that in the game overall a very good performance by the boys, particularly in the second half. the main difference between this game and the one vs blackburn? we actually kept on pushing and pressuring pompey, even after we went a goal up.
it paid dividends in the end, when we broke through a good 5 times (if u count david james swinging at thin air) and the biggest positive apart from the scoreline was our work ethic for practically the full 90 mins.
we were chasing and closing the pompey players down even after taking a 2,3 goal lead.
malouda's first goal is definitely the pick of the bunch. lampsy had a poor first half actually, but turned it up a notch or two in the second 45. good assist from mikel for didier's second, amidst all that rubbish that he can't pass forward. didn't quite agree with studge being taken off, as he was having a good game influencing our attack with some neat dribbles and passes.
as for the commentators absolutely wetting themselves in calling for a red card for malouda's 'elbow', well didier gets the same treatment practically every week from opposition defenders, without any action taken whatsoever.
studge's flailing arm appeared to be a total accident as well. yuri's foul on o'hara right before james's miskick though, should've been given. but after so many decisions going against us, we deserve that bit of ref incompetency falling in our favour for a change.
aston villa next!
