Made very hard work of it but deserved nonetheless, helped by Lamberts decision to sacrifice one of 8 at the back and bring on an attacker. Strange decision.

Pienaar and Baines were overlapping on the left and McGeady was more influential on the right - he brought him on to go 4-4-2 and double up on the flanks so we couldn't exploit them.

It actually nearly worked, it was only a moment of genius from Mirallas that bailed us out to be fair.
 

Tale of two cities that - first half was atrocious, but that Naismith for Stones sub was a masterclass. Can't think of any other manager who'd have made that and... wow. Can't stress how important that change was, superb.

this, it was about the only player i didnt think of to take off!
