Guest Deleted member Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 What a brilliant first leg. Didn't look troubled Forestieri managed 70 minutes They had loads of possession and did nothing Didn't look troubled Their home advantage is gone Didn't look troubled Bring on Wednesday night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i used to be sc_owl Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Confident going to Hillsborough all square. However, I think we should have had the balls to go for it in this leg as well. Difference in philosophy and attitude I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
full fathom five Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Exactly Grandad, many plusses today. FF getting the much needed minute on the pitch being one of them. Setting up all week with Hutchinson playing and then having to adapt without him and looking pretty solid being another. The fact that Westwood had barely anything to do in what should or could have been a kitchen sink job speaks volumes. Onwards and upwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disappointed with that side of things however trying to be positive and pleased with a clean sheet and solid performance. I think they'll be over roared at Hillsborough, their players will have never experienced something like Hillsborough with it packed (sort of, cheers SAG) and in full voice.

flo Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Looked solid in a big game without a big holding midfielder. Good to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastleigh Owl Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 If we were in their shoes now i'd be thinking we'd just had a job done on us, well done Carlos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vulva Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 We are begging in to morph into a Mourinho Man Utd side. Defend first, then attack. Complete turn round from last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McRightSide Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Only one thing worries me The fact that away from home - in a big game - we looked edgy, nervous and could barely put two passes together. Im sure we'll be much better at Hillsborough but, aside from a missing bit of quality from the other team, that could have been the game against Hull last year.

Nobody's going to suggest that we were creative or progressive today, and Wagner won the tactical battle in midfield, but even so I thought we mostly looked calm and were playing within ourselves.

Eastleigh Owl Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 All it wants now is for Carlos to pull Hooper out of the hat for Wednesday night and we'll be getting a visit from the pope to canonise him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
