Maybe John Stones could have one of his uncharacteristic errors.

I wonder what it’s like to be in a competition where you haven’t lost in 5 years.

Not a lot of people know that.

Was that in your best Michael Caine impression or just a statement of fact.

Both. I was multitasking.

MrsGrey

Masuaku putting in a nice ball for our CF in the box. Oh, wait...

MrsGrey

How did Dawson get back there?

alderz

Playing well so far.

I enjoyed Noble shooting from range.

MrsGrey

Was that a foul???

Which one? Masuaku on the defender I don’t think so, Fernandinho on Lanzini was borderline for me

MrsGrey

The first. Nothing wrong with it as far as I could see.

Our team are going to be shattered after 60 minutes

Yeoldhammer

we made it to half time without conceding

thornburyiron

That was an energy sapping battle first half.

Jorderz_Moyes_will_be_Moyes

We’ve done better than I expected.

Could do with Bowen or Benrahma on. Somebody as an out ball who can actually keep hold of it for a few seconds and help us get out.

Whitehorsehammer

Lanzini has done very little, ran around without getting involved, change for Benraham or Bowen? Johnson been wasteful in possession.

OldCastleSwift

Sounds like we've not offered much of an attacking threat. Figures really, given the front three.

Absolutely no way any of them are scoring tonight.

(Let's see if the magic works in the cup)

If you think about the magic it’ll go away. I don’t think it works if you try to use it

I think Lanzini has at least worked significantly harder than the others further forward.

alderz

I thought Johnson was our best player first half, particularly defensively. We didn’t create many chances but we looked ok going forward imo. I would like Bowen on at some point though

OutcastLondoner

I think Vlasic has shown some promising flashes in holding it up and spinning off defenders. Might not have come off properly yet but it’s the kind of movements you want to see him making

Stop listening to whatever you are listening to.

Bowen, Fornals AND Benrahma getting ready to come on

OutcastLondoner

Aghhhh Yarmolenko has the ability to volley that first time…whyyyyyy

MrsGrey

Aargh.

PLEASE BE MORE SPECIFIC WITH YOUR AARGHS! I’ve spent the last couple of minutes thinking my stream is behind and frantically looking to see if they’ve scored!
