Plymouth Argyle (H) | FA Cup | Post Match Thread

Not good. Expected it to be a flat game when I saw De Bruyne, Gundogan, and Bernardo all starting together, but Foden, Grealish, and McAtee didn't do anywhere near enough.

Worst team in the Championship at home and we had to wait for them to get tired before we even started to look like playing in second gear - and that was after sending Haaland on as well.

Can't afford to play any other weak XI in this competition if we want to win it, even if we draw Preston at home next. Anything can happen and it very nearly did today.

Anyone who thinks we need to keep De Bruyne, Gundogan, and Bernardo for "leadership" next season needs to watch that again. What good is leadership when you can barely move against League One level players.

Time for Khusanov, Reis, O'Reilly, Doku, Savinho, Marmoush, and Gonzalez to get proper runs in this team. Hopefully they can secure a fond farewell for De Bruyne, Gundogan, and Bernardo.
Another happy soul.
 
Very one sided game but a typical cup game.

Very concerned about Bernardo performance in that first half, one of my all time favourite players, but he was pulling out of challenges and jogging around like he was there to make up numbers.

Much much better second half.
 
Their goal gave the game some meaning and bite. So happy with the result and progression. If we had won 8-0 and been 4#0 at HT I would have fallen asleep.
 
Really poor which is on pep with the starting 11, we’ve no mid-week game should’ve gone strongest 11 & smashed them 1st hlf then rested players, delighted for o’Riley looks a player, but in his natural position
I read that Nico doesn't feel he is ready for central midfield.
