Awesome today. I was a big critic of his two seasons back. The lad proved himself today. And spared the blushes of al habsi.
Superb.
I actually thought he was having a mixed day, some great touches, but got caught in possession numerous times. The 3 goals made up for that.
Does anyone know if he knocked the third one in with his left foot? I couldn’t see when everyone jumped up. If he did it’s the perfect hat trick, left foot, right foot header. goodpostFrom Matlock to ManU
What a journey!He’s only the second Spanish player to have scored a hat-trick in the Premier League (after Torres).

If anyone was to be taken off at half-time today then it was Gomez. Took him 15-20 minutes to get into the game (poor first touch, not up to pace of the game). Spurned a great opportunity.
Credit where due, stuck to his guns,pushed himself to get into dangerous areas. He had probably three chances in the 2nd half and took the lot. The 2nd fantastic !
That said, Roberto must come in for some praise. Di Santo substitution inspired. Changed the course of the game, even if Ali insisted on keeping us all on the edge of our seats.
Di Santo, back to his energetic self (WBA non-show hopefully a thing of the past); Kone, a handful as ever, once again coolness personified and touch of quality playing Gomez in the for the winner; Beausejour, firing in some great balls from the left.
For me, credit to all who came into the team today – Stam was excellent down the right; Jones, tidy in midfield.
Great team performance all-round, given the context (0-1, ‘must-win, significant injuries). Had to go and win the game a second time after Ali’s exceptional blip. Speak’s volumes for team spirit.
Ali got a decent reception at the end, the fans recognise his contribution to date to the cause. If Gomez carries on in a similar vein (no, he musn’t score 3 EVERY week!), then hopefully, better times lie ahead for him. If today, doesn’t give him a little more confidence, hell nothing well.
WELL DONE ALL – JORDI, match-winner, included

What, and you think that makes it alright that you slag him off for three (not two) seasons and suddenly he has earned your forgiveness? I bet he’s really arsed.
As Jordi trudged off tonight, some bloke said to me he doesn’t seem too pleased. If I was Gomez, I’d have been telling the whole crowd to f*** off when they started to chant his name. Fickle set of twats, the lot of you.
Were’s the “Kone is a wanker” thread for missing that open goal header in the first half? Hmmm, thought not.
Agreed.
Really really really well done to Jordi today. I’ll ignore the other couple you should have had. But he came up trumps today. So genuine praise.
But would I have him in my starting eleven regularly? No. One game doesn’t turn someone into a world beater.
He’s had a good day. Let’s enjoy it. But I think the St Jordi campaign has to reveal a few more miracles.
credit where credits due for the whole team today for sticking with it after their second goal. it was frustrating at times but we stuck at it and got the result.
Griff – You sir are the reason this board is not what it was. For every character, every comedian, every dave, every new comer, every old hand – there is Griff. You should relax and let folk have their say now and again.
Well played to jordi. It’s a shame that you may rather have had us lose, jordi have a stinker, in order for some posters to continue their knocking of Gomez, and your voice of order and reason on the board to be maintained, with only your comments having any relevance or reason to be there. Maybe you could start your own message board, and only allow posts from yourself?
Your response is rather disappointing for someone who on occasion does actually provide a voice of reason and sanity during stormy times.
Edited to be less argumentative on a day I should just go and have a beer.
Funny old game innit,top display from Gomez,now he needs to do it consistently :cheer:
