Vinnie was superb tonight: MDM showed why we made determined efforts to sign Mangala on Jan 31. His distribution was hopeless in the first 25 minutes and I'm afraid that you can never rely on him defensively. He simply seems error prone. The tackle on Messi was outside the area, but it was ill advised. He's not the first to do it, but I would have hoped someone of his experience would have let Joe see what he could do one to one, rather than on his line from 12 yards. Down to ten men is hard against anyone and it the moment which changed the game. Unfortunately, after he came on, Joleon showed that he simply isn't good enough on the ball against the top teams - his default ball is back to Joe.
