Couple of midfielders and a RB ideally. It'll be interesting to see if we do anything at CB. I imagine that Lenglet will be going back to Barca, but there's a question mark over Mings and how well he'll be coming back. It looked like a bloody nasty one judging by his social media posts. I really do hope that he's able to come back and play regularly for us again.

Is that our first penalty conceded this season?

So they need to make sure they do better than Sheff Wed and Huddersfield. Blose probably have the easiest run in, but if Sheff Wed win tomorrow and Huddersfield beat the them next........then I might do a sex wee.

I've seen a couple of posts from them saying how "smalltime" it'd be if we did a bus parade if we went all the way and won the Conference League. Aside from the obvious, being that they're the experts in all things small time, a few points: 1) I'm sure they'd all give their extra fingers to just be in the Premier League for starters, let alone finish high enough in the table to qualify for the Conference League. 2) As above, it's a difficult competition to qualify for in the first place. Finishing top 6/7 in the Premier League is no easy task. 3) There's some bloody tough teams in this competition. Ajax, Lille, Olympiakos, Fiorentina, Fenerbahce - not teams to be sniffed at, especially away from home. 4) It doesn't matter whether it's a "new" competition or not. 5) Mate

Bloody hell. It's nothing short of a bloody miracle that we got through that (a miracle by the name of Emi **** Martinez). What a weird, weird game. We were without a doubt second best in pretty much all departments. It's not entirely unexpected, since Lille were well rested and we were likely still knackered from the Arse game on Sunday. Very frustrating game to watch. It was baffling how many times we had a good clean break with green grass in front of us and we decided to stop and go backwards. On too many occasions we went for the Hollywood ball rather than the much easier pass to guys in space. All that said, as the saying goes - good teams find a way through even when not at their best. We found a way to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat, and I think we'll be better for it having gone through a game like this. It's shown the level that we need to be at. We knocked out possibly the 2nd best team in the competition, but we absolutely need to make sure we don't show any complacency by thinking that the cup is won just because we got through possibly the hardest tie. Every team in the competition at this stage will be tough. Let's keep it going. UTV!

Stop going for the **** Hollywood ball.

We're really playing scared. Even when we have open space Infront of us we don't want to run in to it. We've shown what happens when we apply a bit of pressure. I feel like we're going to try and play for pens and come unstuck. Please, please prove me wrong...

Boot will be on the other foot with the time wasting now...

Just **** get into them. Nothing to lose now.

We absolutely deserve that. Been out thought and out played.
-
Well ****
-
We look terrified of them.

Well I'm sure Emery can see how utterly shit we were that half. We knew that atmosphere would be intense and that they'd come at us from the first whistle, but we just can't seem to string 2 passes together. Not pressing them at all.

Plenty of time but we do not look good at all

I'm not ready for Shogun to end. What a phenomenal series it's been so far. The latest episode was just brilliant.

What a **** great event that was. My personal highlights: Green v Miller - brutal Prochazka v Rakic - buzzing for Jiri, hopefully he'll get another go at Pereira Gaethje v Holloway - holy shit. Unbelievable performance from Max. What an absolute beast. Pereira v Hill - Alex waving away Herb Dean after the possible nut shot, and then knocking Hill out a couple of seconds after was hilarious.

The whole thing around the new stadium complex absolutely stinks to me. A big chunk of the £2-3 billion will be loans. In terms of events, there's no way that the NFL are going to move games to Birmingham. It's hard enough to get teams to forfeit a home game to play in London in a league that only plays 17 regular season games - so I highly doubt that they're going to convince more teams to do it. The money is there to be made in London. I'm a Brummie and I'll always be proud of that, but unfortunately, Birmingham just isn't going to be an attractive destination for these sort of events. They'll probably have a few gigs there but nothing on the scale that they think. Their owners aren't going to make any significant money from Blues either. They just don't have the fanbase or the appeal. The club won't own the stadium, and if the owners get fed up and cut their ties after a few more seasons in the doldrums, whoever else comes in will likely have to pay an absolute whopper in terms of rent and likely be forced out. These plans aren't for the benefit of the club. The owners just want to make a quick buck (hence Wagner is so keen to have it all wrapped up in 5 years). It's all very well showing some pretty PowerPoint slides with some shiny stadium mockups, but it all seems like slightly outlandish plans with little to no substance. Like others have said, the idea nowadays is to stop other clubs suddenly turning into Man City, so their dreams of becoming a footballing superpower are purely to take their minds off the very real possibility that they'll be playing Shrewsbury next season.

Plop have dropped a bollock tonight. 3 down.
-
We need to keep possession for a few minutes. Lille are a bit comfortable.
-
I'm sure they'll shithouse a point against a team they have no business getting anything against (from a ludicrous own goal or something similar to that Hibs free kick....) which will keep them up. They fact that they're as bad as they are and have only just dropped into the bottom 3 shows just how outrageously shit you have to be to go down in that division. Here's hoping....
