Roll on Portugal and out on a Ronaldo penalty.

This is so tedious.

Can't wait for the Ronaldo reaction gif compilation from this game.

98th minute penalty

A bit puzzling why you'd drop a player like Townsend who actually offers something different from the bench. He could be useful after Wilshire/Henderson/Rooney produce the usual terrified, awful English tournament football and you need to change the game (before the panicked Rashford sub in the last 10 minutes).

Get in

Sweet fucking lord this season

5-1. Fuck off.

Please fucking score

I won't believe this until he's actually standing on the touch line. Good things don't happen.

Classic Taylor.

2016. How is he still playing top flight football.

Playing so well. This one will hurt.

We are definitely losing this, a brave / unlucky defeat coming up

"Plenty of positives..."

Blob kept them in it several times. Tough conceding late, but that's what losers with no confidence and composure do.

That was the chance.

Shame football lasts 90 minutes.

Pure sex

If a good performance and frustrating result were in any way an indicator of a good performance and good result against Norwich, the mackems or lowly opposition then today was encouraging.

But in real life, it doesn't work that way. In fact, it's just two points slipping away against opponents you outplayed. Next week we have no idea what sort of team will show up.

Schteve telling him to walk off at the end....FFS.

The league has changed. Nothing teams will take points off Chelsea. The performance should be something to build on but to be in that position and choke is so deflating.

Outstanding 70 minutes or so soured by nerves and cowardice at the end.

More of that.

This is frustrating as fuck

Stupid not to be using the last sub by now. Come on.

Won't be the only full back that gets burned by Montero this season, but he acted like an idiot today.

I'll save the discouragement for now, but I'd like to see some evidence that Steve is recognizing the failings and adjusting. Get some new defenders in and change that lineup next week.
