to all you cunts spamming your disagrees on my earlier post, we were shit when I posted that, all of our good chances came immediately after that post, but by all means time travel to the past with benefit of hindsight and find things to disagree with. cunts.
waaaaaaaa I got a disagree on a football forum waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
 
And here's another thing, again, I'm repeating myself. It happens frequently at my age.

I flicked briefly through the in-game posts. As is often the case, the posters' experience was way different to mine, no one seems to actually enjoy games in which we don't channel 70s Brazil.

Gedson seemed to get a shit load of abuse. Maybe it's just me but he seemed fine to me. We were poor as as a team for 20 minutes, or else Southampton were really good, but we defended well. He played his part, did what he could, After that we played well, moved the ball creatively, had them on the back foot until half time. Again, Gedson was a key part in that.

First 10 minutes of the second half again we were on the back foot, Southampton playing really well. Our defence was fantastic though - hurrah! Gedson did nothing wrong here either.

He got subbed because, I presume (and did Clive Allen), we wanted a more experienced, slightly more attacking battler in Lamela. Great, he picked the team up, our energy level seemed to improve. It was the sort of tactical change you see in every game, regardless of the teams, even more so in the case of a young man who's been in London 10 days.

I really dont see why the in-game posters have to insist on their particular prejudices - Winks missed a pass - CUNT, Dele didn't see X in a better position - CUNT, Lo Celso was tackled - WEAK CUNT and so on. As if Lewandowski, Messi and Van Dijk don't fuck up too.

My take on it, filtered through a few beers with a Romanian Steaua/Liverpool (he lived there a few years, speaks English with a Scouse whine/Real Madrid dear friend of mine...

I thoroughly enjoyed the game, it was a belter of a cup tie. Two good teams who went for it, loads to like about both.

Yeah, the equaliser was frustrating but they fully deserved the replay. GLC again head and shoulders MotM, but I also really liked Winks (again) and Mad Serge. He may have slipped up for their goal but the rest of his game was fine. The best full back in history, Paolo Maldini, also slipped up from time to time, he did once in a European Cup Final, it happens.

My beard and Nigel Adkins's remain uncut.

YIDS

Feck there's some miserable bastards on here, my take at the time (pub) was cracking cup tie great result to bring a form team back to our place, we created enough chances to have been out of sight but we lack a striker, who didn't know that? Tanganga is feckin' brilliant, LoCelso is feckin' brilliant, the players are all putting in a shift, and confidence is coming back ... remember that's with Kane, Sissoko and Davies all likely starters, all missing .... add to that Winks coming back from the dead, and Fernandes on full debut .... and when watching again this morning it's a great result

an extra game with so many players needing game time .... luvin' it
