    The ref was standing way too close all pen shootout and even moved forward towards the spot as Luiz was on his run up. Couldn't believe what I was seeing. 

    Unbelievably unprofessional by the ref; he was basically inline with the post for Dougie's penalty, and then as you say started moving closer during the run up. Would have easily been visible and distracting to Dougie out the corner of his eye

  2. I think over the two legs we saw the downside of (by necessity given injuries tbf) getting through previous stages of the competition playing at like 25% to try and manage workload.

    It's then not easy to turn it on when you come up against someone who is a lot, lot better than you've faced to date. Probably doubly so given there's quite a few in the side who havent really got much experience of a european run.

    Still, we dug out the result, and that is all that matters in cup competitions. Hopefully these two games give a bit of a wake up to the intensity we will need to play at to get further. 

  3. Back to his early season form before all the gambling stuff broke

    Even if he's not getting goals or assists, he was holding it up, carrying it and generally putting defenders on the back foot

     

  4. Good win, but we are going to have to play much, much better next week.

    Gave Lille far too much space, and let them exploit it through stupid decisions and turnovers, e.g. the 1 on 1 Emi saved from whatever Rogers was trying to do in the first half with that bizarre ball backwards.
