Bet you’ve hated it, good stuff happened.

 

Just fuck off.

[TheBrownBottle]

That’ll do.  Like being in semis, me.  Off to graft with the Osula song rattling around my head

Pity about the drop off at the end but was otherwise a brilliant night. 

 

Sandro giving both NUFC and myself a semi.

Nah, I'm used to Pope cutting those through balls out. 

[Pilko]

Piece of piss in the end, that. Another fairly poor opposition but that's two organised, professional performances in a row with some good quality finishing in both and signs that we can score goals from set pieces and against sides that sit in.

 

Let's take that exact same attitude and control to Ipswich, please

And how is he supposed to improve without minutes? 🤔 

 

Hall did.

Trippier for Hall switch didn't work.

 

That sub always irritates me since Tino ends up moving too, always seems needlessly disruptive. Few times it's happened now I think. 

 

Good performance and result tonight. 

[Ben]

Semi's all round

After the Man U / Spurs tie tomorrow night.

[David Edgar]

That was a decent performance against a heavily changed Brentford. 

 

Reliant on set pieces still. Need to do better in open play.

[OoOGazOoO]

I love Sandro! That is all

Telling that Howe didn't trust him to go left back 

 

I presume Howe wanted Tinos pace against Mbuemo but Tino himself was knackered and it left a gap anyway.

Also think Livramento looks like he might need a rest. Been poor tonight and was miles out of position for that. 

Not surprised he was out of position. We were still supporting attacks from the full back positions and Osula gave it away in a dangerous area when we had good possession deep in their half. 

[Amir_9]

Would fancy us against Arsenal or Man United in the final

 

Hope that would be the outcome.

[Keggy_Keagal]

Really positive performance. The lads delivered. That midfield three is the way forward , bizarrely one of Isaks worst performances. Hall really classy and very kind of Brentford to leave Mbeumo and Damsgaard on the bench.

Tbf, Tino played 60 mins last match Hall the full game. Makes sense at 3-0 up to rest Hall there.

You are utterly pathetic.

[BlazeT44]

Carry on like this, I'll be organising another get together....! 

[Kanj]

Get through the next round....l'll be coming back over for Wembley if so.

Fucking hell. I thought I was negative. 
 

We had plenty of chances from open play where we were a few inches away from a great finish or a well worked goal. Leicester was the same.  
 

We’ve had fuck all from set pieces for ages. I’m glad we’re finally scoring from

them and causing the other team problems.
