Outplayed for the most of the second half by a team I have never heard of.

 

Quansah our best player, Konate decent, the rest total shit.

 

I don`t trust MacAllister. 

 

For someone who supposedly never gave the ball away at Brighton, he's looked a bit shaky. Maybe it's the role he's being asked to play here.

Me neither. Last time I went to his house I got electrocuted by the door handle.

Ha ha, now I wish I'd replied with that.

3pts - move on.

[magicrat]

Tough watch that . A toss up with a visit to the dentist as to which was the more enjoyable.  

[El Rojo]

That’s a good line by Michael Owen - nothing Nunez does surprises him. 

[ZonkoVille77]

Forgettable game. 3 points is all that matters. 

[El Rojo]

Diogo > Diego

Not only has some whopper got a laser pen, the people next to them seem happy for them to shine it at their keeper. For fucks sake.

 

Judging by the angle, it was coming from the Kemlyn. Given they weren't given a clip the first time they did it, it was probably some dickhead in one of the boxes.

[Anubis]

We were crap, but comfortable. The only chances they got were what we handed to them, but we still had enough in the locker to win.  Now let’s go and cunt their other team.

Exactly.  No injuries. More minutes for players who needed them. Clean sheet.

 

Job done.

Mac Allister openly laughing and joking and chatting with one of their players before the game earlier. One for the shitness of modern football thread.

Switched it off after I saw that.

One will give you a trophy, the other a crown.

 

 

 

That joke is so good they should give me a plaque. 

[gkmacca]

Horrible game featuring some of the worst doziness in ages. And the sight of Elliott in Mo's position, also having to shift the ball on to his left side - do we have a rule about players on the right never using their right foot??? Just hit the fecker! 

 

I suppose the mental fatigue was inevitable, but thank god that's over. Onwards!

[Trumo]

Very scruffy game. Never got out of 3rd gear in the first half, and struggled to get out of 2nd in the second. The problem throughout was tempo. We had a couple of very short bursts where we stepped it up, but otherwise it was all very ponderous.

 

It's about the 3 points and nothing more though.

[Pidge]

An extremely Europa League performance, in full.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

The bottom line is that the performance was good enough to beat these opponents.  

 

If we can say that about two more matches it will probably be enough to win the group.

Trent's really looking for those Hollywood passes tonight.

They were playing a narrow 352 so we were deliberately trying to switch play to open them up

[Harry Squatter]

We've been given a piss easy group with no long trips so can experiment as much as possible in these games and give different players games with relativity low pressure. 

 

As long as we win and don't get injuries it's all good.

Yep, 5 more points and we are through. Ideally we want to top the group to avoid two extra games against a team relegated from the Champions League but we are more than half way there. 

[janmolby]

Hope we win

Credit to their fitness coach.

 

Often the "smaller" clubs run out of gas @ 75 minutes or so; they were still pushing right to the end.

[Anubis]

Can we take a moment to acknowledge how crap their Dr Fun was. With his baseball cap and sunglasses, trying to cheerlead.

Thiago has been out for 9 fucking months. What the fuck is the story there?

He’s a pointless waste of space (and money)
