We ain't got a full strength team.

Yeah we're missing at least 4 first teamers

Emi will be really up for the return. He loves a big game and their fans will only increase his determination by goading him. He was at his brilliant best last night. 

I was hoping for a minimum of a two goal advantage to take to Lille and had we got the penalty we deserved, we could have got one. It will be a tough task next week, they are a decent team, I'm worried, but I was worried going to Anderlecht in 1982 and that didn't turn out to badly. The bookies are confident enough, Coral now have us 11/8 to win the cup and Lille at 10/1. UTV!

I think we'll need to score twice over there to win the tie and looking at how well they controlled possession at VP I don't think we're going to be seeing a lot of the ball. Going to be tough.

Great win but the problems at the back make going there pretty **** scary. Their stadium will be a furnace compared to VP tonight. Going to be hard, need an early goal. I have a feeling we'll be doing a lot of running chasing the ball. Beat these and we're well on the way though, there's not much better left in the tournament.

Positives, we have an incredible goalkeeper who likes to win, we made a lot of chances too. Negatives are we didn't control the ball at home again, we'll have to be very patient over there and stay disciplined.

Reality 

Reality is we're winning and could have scored more?!

Incredible pressing late in the game to make that

Pure luck. 

Unfair

No more than they've deserved. We've got time to score 

Ref on acid

We are struggling to keep the ball, we'll suffer at their place if we can't do it at home

Konsa was shouting about being left with two players before the ball went back out to the right. Then he's come narrow and told someone to close down the two players edge of the box so maybe he's expecting Bailey to go to the man he left wide...

Lucky escape though

Earned an extra iron bru there

Yeah Ollie trying to sell it has done the opposite 

Yeah he could go down without the artistic license he probably gets it, but VAR should be giving that from the replays

What an opportunity 

Bailey did ok with it to be fair, struck it well

Just now, useless said:

We're winning but have been poor in the final third, nearly every attack our final ball has been letting us down, with better decision making we could have had another two or three goals. They look vulnerable defensively, but we're not getting a hold of the ball enough to take advantage of that

Not in control at all. They've bossed the ball and passed it better

KKH?

I'd rather we were in the box seat before brining him on, lot of pressure but yeah he's the only option

Just now, Callum said:

Hopefully addresses it by hooking Carlos. He’s an absolute liability 

We can't though, who plays right back if Konsa goes central?

Just now, bobzy said:

Might just be a camera thing, but the atmosphere sounds completely dead bar the away fans.  Shame.

Won't be like this at their place you can bet

Near suicide

Getting exposed a bit often, need to exploit the space they're leaving when they commit 4/5 players forward

Very pessimistic. I think this is where our season unravels. 

Come on, this is a bit like pissing on your own chips just in case someone was going to piss on them later.

If it helps I woke up really confident today

We'll have to turn up, playing away first might have been better but we have to take the chance and put it out of their reach tonight.

Lille have some very technical players. It's going to be a tough tie for sure.

If we play to our potential it should be a cracking game, they play nice football but so do we when we're on it

Le stylo est dans le chat?

Oui, tu peux toujours regarder le gomme au bout

We should buy him and see if he can make an impact next season once he knows the ropes more like Bailey did. If not then sell him to a serie a club for a profit...
