Some braindead moments by senior players near the end there.

Some great performances by the youngsters as well.

Onwards and upwards...

Keystone cops stuff after they scored, Walker and Phil miles off it. Youngsters did well

So after sunday we played another team from down south tonite, lot less rolling about from this lot and astoundingly they tried to play a bit of football and on a side note despite being an ex rag watfords manager is far less of a **** than the manager of sundays team.

Thought they gave a very good account of themselves after the silly mistake for our first goal. The Georgian lad they brought on looks a right player caused us all sorts of problems.

In the next round but worrying no matter who he picks, our midfield is so easy to just run through. Wasteful again, not getting a proper striker replacement in for Alverez shows, 58 attempts in the last 2 games with 4 goals where opposition have had 5 on target and scored 3.
Set pieces a complete disaster again tonight

Nunez has terrible negative body language on the field. You can see why Pep doesn’t pick him. Thought he was poor despite his goal.

Thought this, looks like he’s accepted his fate here. Says it all when the others were trying to get him to smile after his goal.

 

[OB1]

Should have been out of sight before their late goal that put City a bit on edge.

Entertaining second half though.

Good minutes for several players.

Mission accomplished.

Also Lewis. Love him to bits.
At one point he had a shot with 4 defenders infront of him, it rebounded into the mix and guess who came out with the ball. Loads of other examples.
Rico is the future.

 

[eyalluvitt]

they showed more ambition than Arsenal

And spent less time on the floor

 

[lancs blue]

Last 10 minutes weren't pretty, but who cares. Walker shouldn't be starting ahead of rico, scares the shit out of me he does.

He's just played 180+ mins within 48 hours or so too, I'd be amazed if he starts at Newcastle.

 

[St Helens Blue (Exiled)]

Result good.
Defensiveley we are poor at the moment. Too much rashness.
Walker has been great for us but 100 percent needs replacing next season.

 

[Mr Ed (The Stables)]

The only thing I can say, is in cup football the only objective is to be in the hat for the next round, so job done.......just.
