TheBrownBottle Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 It will be a mystery until my dying day why professional footballers try to act like smart arses for penalties. That and over-long run-ups. Two or three strides then plant the fucker Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlymouthGeordie Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Won't get a better opportunity to go far in this competition. Good that some of the fringe players got some minutes. Hopefully the big hitters that came on are still fresh for Saturday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should be they only played about half and hour and Wilson will be fresh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar amount to us, when you look at who both teams started with and also brought on after an hour or so. Their game was wide open tonight, proper end to end stuff and they looked piss poor against Arsenal. But I still think it’ll be a bigger test than Man U and Spurs.

Pilko Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Can't be arsed doing match ratings but Targett, Manquillo & (particularly) Maxi were bloody dreadful with the ball tonight. Anderson a non-event too although we didn't play down the right too much. Most of the others put a canny shift in, it just lacked quality and you could see a lot of them were rusty. Tripps and Bruno really lifted it when they were introduced and what a hero Pope is for getting us through the tie. A year or two ago we lose that tie 0-1, absolutely nailed on. It's pleasing that if we aren't firing going forwards we look absolutely comfortable as fuck at the back even with the changes we made. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
