I mean it was always obvious the players wouldn’t forego 4 months salary, and there was a clear silence at the time. Didn’t take a genius to figure out why. We just don’t know what the repercussions of financial fraud will be yet. I imagine it can only be another heavy financial punishment and...

This doesn’t bode well.

A 3-5-2 is so demanding on the wide players and we have no replacements for Kostic and Cuadrado as you say, they’ve both been run into the ground and we are desperate for cover/alternatives out there. At least one wing back, preferably RWB is essential.

How did we go from being unable to string together 5 passes under any pressure to killing a game by keeping the ball really well, making the pitch big and effectively switching the ball against a decent team. I know it’s one game but I don’t think we’ve done this in a few years.

His best contribution to a game for about 5 years.

I wonder if Allegri is still waiting for Kean to ‘attack the spaces’.

I can accept that we will always play turgid football under this fossil. I struggle to come to terms with the fact every ref in this league is a bent cunt.

Could have easily found himself out the 11 with the managerial change as happened at Genoa last season, when Blessin came in. There are so many variables to consider when going on loan to a team likely to be fighting relegation with a big squad to boot.

Our record against them away in recent years has been terrible. Hopefully we don’t help another team get out of a rut.

Glad he’s actually getting a lot of game time. Was concerned with how many centre mids they have on their books that he would be in and out the 11. With Sensi out injured for a length of time he should continue starting regularly.

The camera even panned to his face on that corner and he had an expression that said, oh shit, I completely lost him and ball watched.

Quite the opposite. He won’t feel like he’s back until someone has crunched him a few times and he comes out unscathed.

Genuinely surprised we finally won a big game with a spirited performance. We actually showed a desire to close down the ball and being aggressive defensively in our own half whilst showing a bit of tenacity. Most this season we’ve sat in a low block and haven’t bothered to even try to defend...

Zero ambition to win the game or do anything with the ball that isn’t a safe simple pass or a hoof upfield. It’s eye-gaugingly painful.

Presents to referees are allowed. Speaking to refereeing designators is not and is classed as sporting fraud.

Don’t know if it’s because we haven’t seen him on the field for so long, but he certainly looked bulkier.

It is. Our previous lowest tally in the group was 6 points. Something feels rotten about people being satisfied following a home loss. And to cap it off the opposition barely moved from second gear and didn’t look like they have a crap about the game, whilst we were putting in an effort.

1 shirt pull, 1 random lunge, 2 ass blocks and the goal conceded.

Bean cats and square. Let’s go.

There isn’t much money to be made from the Europa league. I think we’d be better served concentrating on the league, focusing on one game a week with our mentally and physically fragile group of players and trying to scrape a top 4 spot. The only thing to damage without EL would be our...
