We lost our momentum when Elia subbed him, even though he missed that chance and was awful at crossing in the first half, he still was one of the better players. The sad thing is that just shows how bad we are...

He was taken off at a wrong time in the match.
depends

considering the result i agree


however, one would have expected that elia would bring high speed on the tired rightwing, going past defenders, making an action or two, giving a cross or two

if that would have happened, it would have been a good sub


was a risk nontheless

Glad someone else spotted it. Pepe was the better option at that point of the match. Note how our tempo decreased once he was gone, he's not a great dribbler but was being very direct.
And you don't need dribblers at that point, just a direct play will see you through. Pepe just before he was subbed had finally started to beat his man and deliver something. Maybe we should start with someone else and bring in Pepe at the 65th - 70th minute mark.
