Nobody Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Well played today Pards (and I would have said this even if we wouldn't have won). Good starting XI, noticed it wasn't working so changed things at HT and we came out all guns blazing. Good substitutions as well, brave bringing young Adam on instead of Shola. Anzhi made it difficult for us after they got a man sent off, and Eto'o scared the shit out of us so we couldn't push forward too much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, but we just don´t create anything. 11 vs 10 for 30 minutes and I think they created more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

colinmk Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Credit to him for the result. My opinion on him never changes though, I see the same problems all the fucking time and we need to sort it out on the training park. We were fired up after half-time though so credit for that too.

Dr Venkman Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Credit for the win, I think we've got a sending off to thank in all honesty though. We were all over them right from the start of the second half tbf. I think we were improved but we still didn't look like scoring and they still looked the better team in possession, moving through us pretty quickly. Once they went to ten their threat on the break wasn't there as much and they couldn't press us as well. It changed the game but I still didn't feel like we capitalised on it as we could have. Credit for the win, i do think we were a bit lucky though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 what happened btw? Not seen anything after the game lol Celebrated the goal and ran over and got a kiss from some blonde in a Steward's jacket. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pixelphish Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Positive line up, brave sub choosing AC over Shola. Rigid as fuck as usual, a decent attacking coach would surely do wonders if Pardew keeps the bollocks he seems to slowly be forming. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a cup competition, if we keep winning that's all that matters. We simply don't play good football very often though, there's no point denying it.

Cajun Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 To be simplistic we played a very, very good side with a top class manager over two legs, conceded none, scored one and arguably had the better chances in both games. It wasn't remotely pretty but it was effective. We are through and I'm very fucking happy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotus Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 The lack of fluency and incisiveness when we have the ball is so acute. I can't believe there isn't a single poster on here who can't see that. Obviously delighted with the result but it wasn't the easiest to watch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep agree with that, if you look at recent history there has been a lot of teams that I would call cloggers getting to european finals too. There is nothing pretty about us but we are getting the results. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
