I'd love to see us get an upgrade on Williams. But Keane is going to be great.

Keane was always going to be a success. Good player.

 

[Wat Tyler]

Dowell. In your opinion of course. In your arm-chair manager opinion.

It's simply because it's a stick to beat the manager with, that's all.

 

[ijjysmith]

Sussed you out sharpish.

I'm Cuban mate.

I'm Cuban mate.

Mark Cuban? Any chance for a loan to help the Mosh out?

Says it all about tonight's performance, that arguably our best player was tom Davies and even he was playing out of position. At least we're safely through to the next round without any injuries.

My opinion is the only one I trust, of course. And I sincerely hope you feel the same about yours....otherwise what's the point of forming an opinion?

Some of the moaning is over now. I honestly think that tonight has told us what we all knew, We badly need a forward. And a number ten. Wayne let me down tonight cos he gave the ball away so often, I do think that's down to the front 3ish not having played before. They'll get better. Wayne will too. Sandro was inefective tonight cos he got closed down quickly by some big fellas. Running off the back of a bigger man though... Nice one to Dominic too. Before his goal he came on and was already causing havoc and looking good. Got some stick on here before now, but what a finish. Davy needs time to settle too but great ball for the killer goal. Keane was ok, Jags had a good game and I honestly thought Ashley Williams played really well tonight. Maybe I missed the bits where he was shizz. Idrissa was Idrissa. Thought he might struggle after the yellow, but nah. Morgan is a complete midfielder. GazBaz did his thing too. If you're gonna take Morgan off with ten mins left then Barry is the right sub. Tom Davies should start every game now. Cos he's ace. And he don't tuck his shirt in much.

Can't be moaning. This is a team that are, fitness wise, ahead of us. West Ham and Southampton have both gone out of this comp early in the last few years. We're better than them and we're going into the group stages whoever we get in morra's draw for the last (early) knockout round... COYB.

I know these were rubbish and I know we should of spanked them but we look so rusty. We will get better as they play more with each other especially Wayne who looked like he needs to play as much as possible.

We still need a striker though and Siggi will be useful if he signs but at the back we looked solid for most part and DCL's performance was a pleasant surprise.

Not great but as bad as some are making out and its job done

I refuse to help that man sign any more central midfielders.

I'm with you Totally. It wasn't nice and it was far from pretty. It's a job done though and we're in the draw for next round. All we can ask.

Formation was totally weird tonight. Just didn't work with the players we had. Spent a lot of money then still had our potentially best ball playing midfielder playing wing back.

 

[canuckblue]

Clean sheet for Everton, soiled sheets for a good number on here.

Along with us Milan are seeded mate, so we can't play each other.
