Definitely missed Puncheon Dann,and maybe Soure as well. We played well in parts. Especially first half hour. I get fed up with all the back passing. I want them to push on. Feel a bit like something is missing even though this is probably our best ever team. I'm giving it more time, but I think we need to do a bit of buying and selling in January.

I didn't see the game today, did lee get any minutes?

I thought Campbell looked bright when he came on. Seemed to work well with Wilf. An interesting choice from Pardew.

Benteke didn't really get much service today although he should have done better with the one-on-one.

Well taken goals from LC but they wouldn't all have gone in on another day.

Benteke got good enough service. I reckon he had three good chances this week, and three possibly four last week. Could have won us both games.
