It’s a shame that the first thing we find ourselves saying – if we’re being honest – is how poor West Brom were/are. But they were, and they are and there’s no shame in being honest, honestly. If you can honestly say that you are ashamed of being honest then honestly that’s a shame.
As for the serious stuff … that last goal wouldn’t have looked out of place at Arsenal. Though we did actually score at the end of the passy-passy-passing bit, so it would have looked a bit out of place 99% of the time.
Phil Jones’ goals that aren’t cumbersome child-like volleys only count half, but luckily the overlords at the Pool’s Panel weren’t required to step in; what with our super-fancy-pants Danny goal, and that other one.
Danny still looks very much on for the 26 goal target I set him at the start of the season. It only takes a second to score a goal, someone probably said once, and by my reckoning there’s at least 4,000,000 seconds left to play this season, so perhaps I’m doing him a disservice?
Rooney became the first player in Premier League Ourstory to reach double figures of assists and goals over five seasons. So he’ll be very happy for him.
The big test comes now … against Them. No, not Them Them, the other Them. Oh, no! Relax! … not right now. In a few days time. It’s not an ambush situation. At least I hope not. Though, those conspirators will try anything…
