Yup that's why we need to win there to go through me thinks ( even tho I can't see it)

Yeah we will need a win or a draw with goals. 1-0 to them will see them through if it holds after extra time

 

[toffee matt]

We won. Have you seen our results recently. Bit of positivity wouldn't go amiss!

I'm a worrier!!

 

[Professor Toffee]

Gah - no feed. Updates.

We won 2-1 with 10 men on the pitch at ft as Coleman went off injured on 88

 

[Caolam]

That was a good team playing well.

 

[mitchell1996]

im quite confident tbh, we play better away from home. i can deffo see us scoring there, which means they need 3

GarBar top man for me, a god like performance

Besic next to Barry. Lovely

 

[gonetomorrow]

Swashbuckling performance. The subs stepped up to the plate tonight.

 

[Dithering Dougie]

Many players had great games tonight, Besic, Mori, Coleman, Baines and Barry but fair play to go Robles. He didn't have much to do but twice he pulled off some very good saves.

GarBar top man for me, a god like performance

Imagine how good he'd be if he could move his legs.

 

[Justin Vaughn]

Besic was super. Man of the match.

 

[Ring master]

Yeah we will need a win or a draw with goals. 1-0 to them will see them through if it holds after extra time

wonder will we do this the everton way and win by losing 3-2

Basic mom by a country mile - immense

 

[Eggs]

Probably the best we've been all season.

Besic was immense.

....settle for that, perhaps there were more goals but we played like the game was more important for us. Besic was good, so was Mori but Barry was tremendous.

 

[Barlows Boots]

stupid away goal rule, what is it good for?

Away goals don't count in this cup, only after ET in the 2nd Semi

Keep a clean sheet, or draw and we're through
