I know Burn takes a lot of shit, and rightly so in many cases, but that 4th goal started by a great tackle from him on a 1-on-1 situation, with a quick pass forward.

Edit: read this wrong in my pissed state. They've been wembley tons but mainly play offs

They've been tons of times in the past ten years. Lost every game they've played. Trust me... I've been there with my dad ?

Houghton back in??...

Not yet. He knows his way around the stadium too well.

2 or 3 huge saves from Pope too, penalty included. But my word someone should build a wall around his 18 yard box

That's pretty much my point. It speaks to maturity and putting the team first. For what it's worth I think he played well, tracked back and covered. Made lots of positive runs forward and I think he will be a huge asset. My fear is that, potentially, that outburst could be telling. Hopefully, I'm completely wrong...

I'd agree if that's 10 minutes before the end, but you've got to be thick as mince to not realise what EH is doing there...

Why would you be even upset there, as a player? The manager trusts you to do a job at half time. You're part of the solution and you get the result. That's going to be hugely favourable for you going forward. He should have walked off, rolled his socks down and winked on the way off. Not act like a cretin, cause a scene and potentially make the post match interviews about your reaction (and not a great second half performance) It just smacks of a lack of maturity. Him before team...

Not sure why he was upset? Being subbed off? If so, not a good sign.

Probably a bet on

And "Joe-Ell-Ington"

Henry vibes

Botman hasn't had the greatest game. Few misplaced passes and lost his man from the corner

Think Burn just glitched out then

Save's me from 45 minutes of heart palpitations

Generally like Burn. Not the greatest, but steady. But my God he's been awful today.

No way the Fernandes push was as bad as Mitrovic. I hate Fernandes as much as the next bloke, but it wasn't as bad. The aggression of Mitrovic and the way he leant forward in Kavanagh's face made it far more threatening. As a former referee, you're going to be fearing for your safety far more if a player squares up to your face, pushes/pulls you, invades your space and points at you, launching a tirade of abuse. Compare that to a slight push in the back and you turn to see the player running away... There's zero comparison. That said, Bruno should have been punished in some way post incident.

Just be thankful you wasn't wearing a leopard print coat

Looks like I'll be gannin to Wembley with the old man...

Isak is absolutely terrifying

Must run in the family

Credit where it's due. I think Lascelles has been very decent today, and Murphy has had a decent cameo. Didn't think I'd be saying that 90 minutes ago.

Pep doing his best Stiffler....

He's got a face that's asking for a slap.
