Great post Trigs. Nail on the head.

Qualified comfortably, forget tonight we had qualified before tonight (ala Villa last night) .....and before THEY start!
What did you want him to do put out a full team then somebody get injured then start blaming Hughes, for playing a full team when we had already got through or we needed to qualify in first place to get an easier game in the next round, then blame Hughes when the players start against West Brom and look jaded, this way Hughes has no excuse against West Brom.
Final thought what a team of soft arses they were tonight!

we made 7 changes tonight! what do people expect?
i expected better than that...we were really very poor, hope we win on sunday now...no doubt hughes needs it
seemd to change when we brought the quality players (VINNY,stevie)onbluemoon1078 said:eshiers1 said:i expected better than that...we were really very poor, hope we win on sunday now...no doubt hughes needs it
Why would you expect better with 7 changes? This just highlights to me that people should give Hughes a break because the squad clearly isn't good enough. with the pressure on him for sunday he was spot on to rest players! Ironically the pressure being increased by the very people who are now moaning about tonight! the bloke has no chance of pleasing some.
The same people who have been moaning about Elano not playing, the same Elano who was once again absolute shite tonight and doesn't warrant a place at the moment! The same people who have been saying Ched should be playing who again failed to impress!
The only ywo players to come out of that with any credit were Zabaletta and Big Phil! That is why we are struggling at the moment not because of the manager!

Why work hard to qualify for a tournament and then not play your heart out? little but hypocritical aint it? (even if it was through fair play)
