From the stats and descriptions I suspect that this is a match were the result is the main positive. That OGS seems to have a knack for fielding the right substitutions at the right time a habit I expect you guys active in here will pray continues.

Swansea, despite loosing, will be a much harder opponent next by the looks of it. 65% possession and 20 shots on goal in their loss. That none of the 20 shots actually hit goal a bad habit you guys better hope they continue with for a bit longer ;-)

Derby's are often different and are almost impossible to predict. They always seem to go against the grain. Im going for 1-1 draw to be honest.

I'm awed by ole's approach

Bringing zaha on for whitts and sending Bellamy inside killed two problems at once and directly led to the goal. Genius
