Was there a, erm, lap of appreciation yesterday?

[Ash]

A pretty sparse crowd, I'd have thought

More stayed than I expected. It was actually quite a warm atmosphere, I thought. An acceptance that the league season may have been a disappoint but these are our players and we will show our support for them.

That's good to hear, a. Any clear farewell waves from Mesut or Sanchez?

Alexis is definitely going. Keeps making noises about it and his body language is suggestive too. Ozil will stay imho - which is fantastic news, of course.

Not sure, but the Mesut played like someone who wants to stay. Apart from his goal Sanchez appeared to be playing for Everton.

Sanchez has one out of the door and will have the pick of teams to join. We will get a decent fee for him.

Not sure Ozil wants to stay but might have little choice given the apparent lack of interest...

I think Alexis stays. After all, he's just had a great season, personally.

Nice to hear the fans signing Stan Kroneke's name. Went on for about 10 minutes.

I think the fact they played their socks off yesterday muted the hostility. Football fans have very short memories.

Or, as fans, all we should be asking for is for each player to do everything they can to get the right result. Whether this is good play, discipline, organization, strength etc etc. If the players give all that and get a result, we should be happy. If the result goes against us, we at least appreciate the effort and application shown by the players.
