Wigan FA Cup post-match thread

[nmc]

we can't win every game. we have to put things into perspective. going for 4 trophies is near enough impossible. this season we have been brilliant, so there isn't really much to moan about

We get a few weekends off now I guess. Some small comfort. I hope Rochdale win the cup now.

So far, we've won the next game after a draw/defeat. Bouncebackability

So they’ve beaten us 3 times in the last 6 years in the FA Cup. Unbelievable.

Battered em
Couldn’t hit the onion bag
Kyle fucked up
Taylor is a ****

Think I covered all the bases there

Still a bit of ‘typical city’ left in the club under the polished veneer of this world class side.

I think we all know it would be a yellow (if that, judging by the reaction of the earlier knee-high challenge in Aguero)... but that shouldn’t be the standard.

I can’t really complain about the red as it was on the wrong side of borderline for me.

What I will complain about (until Taylor is canned or jailed) is the inconsistency in what is and isn’t a red card offence. And there is an argument to be made that Delph’s poor challenge would have never occurred had their player been rightly sent off earlier in the match.

Both yellows for me. Also. Taylor has a history of changing his mind when it comes to us

Having won the corner count 15-0 it's about time we learned how to execute them more effectively.

Im more concerned about the "typical ref" in our games Frank.

On


Once Sane went off we lost the ability to go bast the full back - we worked Walker in a few times but his final ball was shocking. Bernardo had loads of opportunity but wouldn’t take his man on. That sort of defence needed to be turned around. We played in front of them and made it easier for them.

exactly. They played like Leicester under Ranieri. Very deep and very narrow with huge center backs. They let us have the wings and wanted us to cross it in the area high. We obliged. No sterling and then Sane went off meant we had no one capable of driving in the area and creating. Danilo was alone on the left with no left foot and Silva was in the right and lets face it he did fuck all but pass it back in the middle. We miss Sterling and Sane as a duo. Really hope they are both playing Sunday

Spot on, it's an incredible season and this is a rare diapointment. We weren't quite at it today but these things happen.

Let's hope it's a different matter on Sunday, a cup final win would be a great way to bounce back!
