It wasn't a sensational goal though was it.

It came off Ortega's arse.

 

[Blueknows]

Season defining 45 minutes coming up

 

[paulchapo]

Got the feeling off the Wigan game this.. hope I’m wrong

You mean you hope you're right.

 

[dublin-blue]

See a lot of posters complaining about the ref when we are losing against League 1 opposition. The ref is the least of our problems, our major issue is how our players are performing.

The margins are large to us but on a professional scale a bad ref can make a massive difference in a game.

 

[Victorinodennistua]

McAtee and Grealish off, De Bruyne and Foden on.

McAtee and Gundo off for me then a goal back and we should be ok.

Early days, but looks like you don't get much for £175m these days...

Our recruitment looks as well planned at United’s this window. Mad trolley dash at the 11th hour.

 

[Crooked_rain]

I'm such that the Leyton Orient manager is currently serving a touchline ban. So what the fuck is he doing on the touchline?

He's not

He chooses to sit in the stand first half, but he went down early

 

[ID70]

Too lightweight throughout the team

 

[Keeper!]

Is it tactics or confidence?

Tactics same for 2 seasons, it's like watching a game in permanent slow motion.

 

[super_city_si]

McAtee and Grealish off, De Bruyne and Foden on.

Mcatee annd gundo off. Grealish in mid and savinho left. Foden and de bruyne on.

 

[citymad]

Pretty tame thread, considering. Have we all just accepted that this season is a big bag of wank?

Expect us to win 3-1 in the end

Like your optimism. This isn’t a surprising performance. Just another poor one. Luck is with the opposition today.

 

[mosssideblue]

We’ve got this, Orient quickly emptying the tank

 

[Zenmanc]

This is shi

T and we should be beating a really crap league 1 team equals spoiled. I would have expected us to win this when shit

We arent so give up right

 

[Tomblue]

Foden on the left it pointless

I can’t stomach anymore of that.

 

[Bluemoonadam]

Don't give a fuck now tbh even if we salvage this tie today as soon as we play someone decent we are going out.

 

[CambridgeExileBlue]

I bet they don’t second half mate. They were fucked near the end of that half.

Hope so, but they will then foul us more as the ref letting them get away with it.

 

[bluemoon32]

Freak goal on a foul play.

Run of form has not been good to say the least.

You don't just buy a few new players and immediately start hammering opponents and find your form.

Find a spine some of you and grow up.

My spine is fine, not sure about a lot of the players though

 

[yerwot?]

if orient keep giving us corners......we're fucked, easily their most effective "tactic"

 

[Petethemancinleeds]

Orient have been excellent we have been unlucky and had plenty of chances. Some of the criticisms on here make Arsenal fans look modest. Three one City.

 

[BigJoe#1]

The goal is Ronaldinhoesque v England i Japan
