Much needed 3 points, although we almost blew it (I was expecting a late equalizer, the way our season has been going). Studge the difference, we've been needing that quality. Actually, we have just needed goals in general. He and Danny Ings making a great pair, and it will be interesting to see what happens when Benteke becomes healthy again. Lucas, was immense. Would have been MOTM if Studge wasn't the difference in the game with 2 goals. My biggest complaint is Emre Can. Dreadful, and our defense did well bar his performance. Solely at fault for their first goal. I keep hearing he is out of position, but isn't he a RB for his country? He doesn't get ahead of Lucas/Hendo/Milner for me in CM, so I'm not sure where that leaves him. I believe we should slide Clyne in that RB position. He's probably the best natural defender in the squad, so let him defend. We are getting nothing of an end product from him anyways, let Ibe/Lallana battle for that RWB spot. It's a good start, need to go again now.
