good work all round. standard shit attack moment at the end but thought we controlled the game for the most part but as ever only giving ourselves a one goal lead makes us susceptible to not winning games by conceding sickeners.

 

defence looking better and better. Allen was immense. Enrique too and henderson played very well.

 

delighted to be through to the knock out stage. something else to look forward to after crimbo.

Almost went out at the end there thanks to Henderson shitting out of that challenge, fortunately Di Natale had Borini's boots on and blazed over.

 

but looking at it positively we're through courtesy of a henderson goal and a very good overall performance from him.

I thought it was Downing trying to pass the ball through a defender and it bounced back towards the area.

 

It looked like he would have got lynched if it had gone in, the way Carra & about 4 others acted as it whistled over.

Happy with that.

 

Very much the antithesis of the Young Boys game in that we actually did a job in closing this one out and did very well keeping possession.

 

In terms of the final third, nothing we don't already know. We lack a cutting edge and our decision making is really poor at times, but I'd just be wasting my breath if I went into detail.

 

Made up to have won the group as well. Don't think anybody saw that one coming before beforehand!

Or when Allen gave the ball away a few times or when their striker got in front of Carragher and headed wide or when Downing hit the ball up the loine to their defender when he could have just kept the ball or when Johnson got nut megged etc etc.

 

Henderson got our goal, nearly scored a cracking volley, helped Allen defensively, got forward supporting Suarez, kept the ball... but no just have a snide dig at him with one example, that's fair on the lad!

Brendan was ace with the ball-holding incident, it's OUR ball !

 

Thought it was quite funny when he shooed the camera away in the opening minute.

Going to Italy and winning is always a great result. Clean sheet, good performance, always looked the better team. You can see a team evolving here at the moment. Got to give it patience, we don't have all the personnel to be a top side and we'll have our off days, but for the first time in around 3 years I feel optimistic about us.
