Barry has fed on scraps. Showed some lovely touches. Would have scored if Harrison had squared it.

This halftime music can GTF.

People saying Beto to come on here, he would have done absolutely nothing in that half.

Beto against a low-block is like fighting a tank by throwing slices of ham.

Burkhardt could have come for like £15m.

I do not know who this is as my FIFA and FM days are behind me but I will take your word on it.

 

[Sporting Billy]

Tbf we’ve knocked it about more than in previous years in this comp against similar opposition where quite often we’ve looked inferior. Remember Doncaster away when we couldn’t string two passes together.
Barry looks a slightly more composed version of Beto, though I’m yet to be convinced.

No changes at HT

Would have done less.

Barry has linked up very well but not been given much to run onto.

Manchester United

They really are woeful, aren't they?

 

[Librarian]

Need to blast these out of it and get in the hat

Liked the quick layoff, something to work on.

 

[Yarrgh]

Good aren't they for a League One team. Play some nice stuff

I'm really quite impressed by them in attack. If they had started some of their attacks with a player more advanced they could have really been asking a few questions.

Apparently we are called Everdon now

 

[HTCHERO]

I thought he started well, but faded as the support and ideas behind him did....

Looks a bit lost against a league one side for me. Moyes did say he's dropped him in sooner than he wanted and maybe he needs more time to adapt etc.

 

[Pittsburgh Footy]

McNeil screamer from outside the box incoming

 

[Dublin blue 75]

How many times does McNeil clean the soles of his boots. Every corner without fail anyway
