jeez, i'd forgotten how nervy run-of-the-mill home games get when you're challenging for the title. that really was your typical 'ground out win when playing poor'. best thing to take out of it is that we'd quite likely have drawn that last year. feel sorry for Ali having his first game in ages be that dire.

Saha was utterly abysmal, worst i've ever seen him play - no first touch, no movement, no effort or workrate and never looked like scoring the chances he had. Giggs wasn't an awful lot better. even Scholesy was poor by his standards. really can't think of anyone who stood out, bar Henke when he came on (such a class act. Saha should be made to watch videos of him for 10 hours a day). Fletch had a decent game, getting reeeeeeally ****ed off at the way he gets stick for any/everything, usually unjustified. delighted to see him get a goal, might have celebrated that a bit excessively. Park's header was surprisingly good as well, excellently placed.

atmosphere was woeful first half, f**k off with that 'stand up and support your team' crap already. dunno whether it was sandy busby and robbo appearing at half-time or a conscious decision to make some noise to keep warm and entertain ourselves (because the game sure as hell wasn't doing that) but it was MUCH better second half, the 15 minute or so version of the calypso was ace.

NINE MORE WINS

It was bad in the first half, but today was the first time I can remember this season that the away end wasn't pretty much full. It showed in their support as well coz they were really quiet.

fought and worked very hard, impressively organised at the back for the most part but utterly lacking in ambition. obviously you weren't going to come and throw the kitchen sink at us, but even at 1-0 down late on with us playing poor, there was no real ambition there, was almost as if a narrow defeat was satisfactory.

Song wasn't bad, better than i've seen of him for Arsenal but still nothing special. no idea what Wenger sees in him. immense swallow dive during the first half as well. Bougherra was pretty good, although my nan could have marked Saha out of the game today. Zhi was pretty much anonymous.

he was utterly infuriating. he has these days like today all too regularly (albeit not quite on this scale), just a complete waste of space when he's in that mood.

I've decided its Andrei Kanchelskis appreciation weekend so please post any clips or share any memories of that fantastic winger of ours.

Clips seem to be short supply on youtube with only one from him in a United shirt so here goes...

(Everton) The Kan Kan Man takes down Liverpool

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">Jones: Rams have United's swagger

Midfielder David Jones believes promotion-chasing Derby are developing a swagger reminiscent of Premiership leaders Manchester United.

Jones, whose loan move from Old Trafford became a permanent transfer in January, has detected a growing sense of confidence at Pride Park with the Rams currently sit top of the Championship table.

And the 22-year-old said: "It is certainly not an arrogance but it is a belief we are capable of winning every game of football we go into.

"It reminds me of the feeling you have when you play in a Manchester United team - that as long as you do your job properly then the opposition cannot hurt you.

"I get the same thing here at Derby now, a sense that as long as we do the right things we have enough quality in the side to beat anyone we come up against." </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

another assist for him today as well :***)

simpson and evans helped sunderland to a clean sheet and a 2-0 win, both loan keepers kept clean sheets too, bardsley not so lucky.

as far as i can tell gibson, campbell and shawcross are playing for antwerp at the moment

dunno if it's been mentioned, Ritchie Jones has joined Adam Eckersley on loan at Barnsley until the end of the season.

Mitchell Bryant, a kid we signed a year or so ago from Southampton who had Chelsea amongst others also after him, hasn't been offered a trainee contract apparently and has been released. should find out over the next couple of weeks which youngsters will be taken on.

What Nick said basically about the atmosphere and type of game it was today, glad we won but we were several notches short of coming anywhere near a decent performance. Luckily Charlton are pretty much utter pap, despite us being annoyingly wasteful for long periods.

Park, Fletch & Kanchelskis love icon14.gif

MOM is a tricky one today just because of the style of game, and almost everyone ****ed about at one point or another. I guess I remember thinking more often than not that Rio did pretty much everything right today, so I’ll give it to him. Second place I’m tempted to give to Larsson since he was quality when he came on, especially when he lobbed the ball way up in the air and then moved to receive it himself even though it wasn’t his original intention, but I actually think I’m going to give it to JSP, just for the work he put in and the fact that he was involved in a few of our better moves and the goal as well. But given that we weren’t putting a whole lot of cohesive stuff together I could quite easily given it to one of a few other players.

MOM: Rio Ferdinand

2ND: JSP

More moderate rotation for Reading next week. Saha to play some part just to get him back in the swing of things a bit more before Lille, Ole/Larsson to be involved as well. Fletch & JSP to start again. Gabby in for Evra. Don’t think any of that’s out of the question.

Finally, glad in some respects that we’ve got three away fixtures after the cup game, even if they are tricky because the pitch looked **** today and it could do with some rehab.
