That was an ugly 3 points. I'll take it though.

Not very convincing at all... I know I won't be bitching at the refs for a while. either one of SuperJan's tackles in the box could have been called, but in the end I think they were correct. I was on the edge of my seat waiting for us to give up the lead, but we somehow hold on. A loss would have been devastating considering our next 2 fixtures. Anyhow, I will gladly take the points.

Could end up being a huge 3 points, and it's hard to complain about 3 points on the road in the rain, buuuuuut...

Jan is slowly becoming more of a liability than an asset. He's getting pretty wild with challenges as of late.

Ugly win, but of COURSE I'll take it. But if you want to be a top club, you have to get 3 points against bottom teams even when you play as poorly as we did.

Yep... Can't argue with anything in that post.

So what would y'all consider a positive result, as far as points go, over our next 2 matches? (ManU and Chelski)

I'm thinking we need to get something out of one of the games... Wishing for 1 point in 2 games is disconcerting though.

The way we've played top teams over the last two seasons I'd be thrilled with 1 point. We just don't play well against top clubs.

We absolutely need 1 point out of the games, 2 would be more ideal. I'm not sure I see getting 3 from either match. Defensively, we're just not that good right now.

We also can't afford to get blown out if we do lose. A 1-0, 2-0 or 2-1 wouldn't be too bad vs Chelsea. But anything like the results last season vs Pool or City would just be the fricking worst.

That's my hope... Get a point from one game and at least keep the other close. We need to keep this train rolling and a blowout will definitely hurt us going forward.

It wasn't the prettiest 3 points but it'll do I guess. It sure was frustrating not putting another in the net early when we were dominating then watching us lose all momentum just knowing they were about to square it up.

Reading post game stuff it's obvious they know what they did and are kind of unhappy with themselves. I would dare to say most are admitting they overlooked Leicester today for the big matches coming up starting Sunday.

COYS!

United looked so good yesterday, and tomorrow's game is at 6AM central. This is the perfect set-up for me to be pissed.

I am more than pleased with the result... We started very good and absorbed their barrages in the first half. Second half I felt like we did what a top 4 home side should do, and step up our play and take control of the game. We just couldn't put one in, but ManU missed a few sitters so I think the result is fair. All in all it still looks as if the team is moving in the right direction. Kane may have won me over today, he is a PL striker and continues to surprise me. I am interested to see what moves we make in the winter window.

Everyone keeps saying they are happy with the draw and yeah I agree. But I just can't help but feel slight disappointment not winning it with the way we finished yesterday. idk I said myself before the game that 1 point would be great, but after seeing it I feel like 3 points was very achievable.

Again, all things considered 1 point is fantastic and I'm not dogging the team at all but after the whistle blew yesterday morning my initial feeling was we should have won.

Based on the second half we should have won. We were pressuring the shite out of them at the end I'm loving Poch's system.

That said, United should have been up 2-0 in the first half and weren't only because of Hugo's heroics and some bad finishing so I think a draw is fair.

I wish Chelsea would have won so they don't come in pissed off to WHL but that's the way she goes.
