* actually just noticed the latter says it’s an mp4, why would that require flash. Dodgy link alert.
I download our games from there every week, burn them to DVD and post them to my uncle. :thup:

not wishing to sound too nitpicky, but there were a few really dreadful defending decisions ..

other than that, and Antonio putting another couple of balls into orbit, good professional performance, should have been four, I expect Cornet heard it from the lads in the dressing room...

Great stuff, GaryP.
I don't suppose there are downloadable highlights of the first leg anywhere, are there, please?

You must be delighted to be wrong then :winker:

Probably already been asked by others but what on earth was the thinking behind sending on Antonio and Zouma with the game already comfortably in the bag ? Particularly Zouma if he is, as is being widely reported, carrying a fairly serious knee injury.

Maybe to rest players who will be starting against Villa after turning in a decent performance tonight.

Perhaps he isn't carrying a serious knee injury.

That cross from Johnson early in the second half, the one to Cornet, was really promising. If he can put those kind of balls in more regularly then his game will really kick on. Ok he won't ever have that much time in the league but it was a lovely ball. I thought he did really well. He looked more confident playing higher up the pitch than I've seen him before. Well played!

Too right. What part about “Claret and blue” did the manufacturers miss? Ok, try dark blue not sky blue, but ffs, orange?

Claret, white, sky blue.

Stick to your knitting.

Viborg not the pushovers anyone expected them to be, the result probably flattered us =, especially after the first leg. Great support too.

I found central midfield interestinglast night: Lanzini seemed to be a deep, anchor man with Soucek being the one to arrive late in the box (as when he's partnered with Rice this season).

I really liked the look of Downes when he came on. Admittedly he didn't have much impact, but he showed a lot of confidence and energy - always making himself available and wanting the ball. I hope that effort sees him rewarded with opportunities in the first team.

I was surprised to see Oko-flex in the team. Maybe we used the opportunity to play him as we can change our final submitted squad before the group stages. From last night's showing though, I think he's going to be an unfortunate victim of UEFA eligibility rules again - (I make our squad at 22 or 23 with Aguerd with a couple more hopeful to come in).

It’s great watching Benrahma looking so much better. I think he was unfairly picked on, but admittedly he never really looked as good as everyone had hoped.

That shirt is so bad that I’m tempted to get one just for a laugh.

Only watched the highlights but even from those, Scamacca looked good, up front and dropping deeper. Looks to be building a decent partnership with Benny and also appeared to create space for others to run into. Good prospects for him.
