    We don't exactly play hoofball, but not many of our passes are to foot. A lot of passes have to be taken on chest or thigh, or even worse a looping bounce in front of the recipient.

    Most of our passes look like aimless balls in hope more than anything.

    If we didn't have our back 4, we would have conceded far less. Panic stations and poor decisions especially MDG and Farrugia. That lack of confidence in your back line holds the team back.

    Christ knows how we’re winning this. One moment of quality in 45 minutes of absolute sheesh kebab.

    Be a shame if that finish is let down by a bad result. Hope we come out firing second half.

    Two awful teams. Great bit of finishing by DKD.

    Cos that’s where the offence was, I.e. where he touched the ball. He was offside because he was in the opposition half when the ball was played forward, fulfilling the requirements for it being offside, but the free kick is taken from where the player touches the ball, even if he runs back into his own half to get it.

    It sounds like I'm not missing much, a piece of quality from DKD aside.

    Humphrys needs subbing asap, offering absolutely nothing. Also, Nwakali, I’m not seeing it, one world beating pass every three starts doesn’t do it for me.

    Other than the goal... We are winning. It's the only thing we can shout about. But we're winning. That's all that matters right now

    We need a second, third and perhaps a fourth to make sure.
