I'm another supporter from Sydney, pretty guttered this morning but the Rags had a semi final mentality and we were on the back foot from the first whistle.
I thought our backline would struggle a little more than they did though, thanks to Micah who had a blinder. If we had started a game with those backs a few weeks ago I'd have given us little chance so we've come a long way in a short period of time. Even Vincent Kompany looked a lot better than he has previously.
I think they'll learn a lot from that though and I think as far as timing is concerned it couldnt have come any better. We need more dominance in midfield and I think some weaknesses might be dealt with over the next week. Should have started Ireland, that was disappointing.....
Hats off to you guys at that Trafford joint, heads up. Lets give Pompy a hiding and get back on track.
