Went in directly from McArthur. Meyer didn't touch it but he did confuse Hart enough that he couldn't get anywhere near it. Agree. My opinion from the highlights is that it was a far more creditable goal than the early reports led one to believe. Meyer’s excellent run at the ball - overtaking the defender - meant Hart had no choice but to ‘stand up’ rather than try to cut out the cross. Hence Meyer just failing to connect meant that Hart was stranded. Had Meyer connected, it could well have bulged the net at the near post. This is what happens when a ball is put into the ‘danger area’ with conviction and players get on to it.

Good call ! With no main striker our midfield have to make runs into box so Wilf and Andi crosses come shots can increase our scoring chances

I think Meyer could be the hero tomorrow night. Fingers crossed..
Some people are like Slinkies … not really good for anything, but you can’t help smiling when you see one tumble down the stairs. |

Anyone else take a cheeky gamble on putting Meyer into their fantasy team this month ? After the display against Burnley, I feel he could get some decent points.

That so called 'Area of uncertainty' - and defenders don't like to be running back in such a situation facing their own goal.Credit to Meyer for making that run into the box - Benteke would have been outside the area !

'corridor of uncertainty' is the phrase, I believe. That so called 'Area of uncertainty' - and defenders don't like to be running back in such a situation facing their own goal.Credit to Meyer for making that run into the box - Benteke would have been outside the area !
