Can we keep this up 2nd half

thornburyiron

I hope the break doesn’t mess with the momentum.

claretandbluesky

Just brilliant. If they keep this up win or lose it will be the performance of the season.

I keep saying we are a very good attacking side and when we take a game to teams we stop their own game as we are both strong and fast.

Please one more goal in the first 20 of the second half.

My money is Oggy to score it

We’ve been great so far. I wish we were aggressive like this more often.

Without wanting to get into the whole Moyes in/Moyes out debate, I think that's why so many of us get so frustrated with the football we play so often under Moyes, when we're capable of playing like tonight.

MIAHammer

It's what we all asked for. Giving it a real go.
Hypothetical question. If we win 2-0, regardless what happens on penalties, does that count as a Leverkusen loss?

That's what I was thinking when we had that corner before the break.

MIAHammer

Looks like Boniface is coming on.

buffybegood

Boniface and Frimpong on.

alderz

I don’t like Boniface he’s scary

alderz

The crowd sounds quieter. We need a cauldron this half.

Jorderz_Moyes_will_be_Moyes

They’re starting to knock it around again

Jorderz_Moyes_will_be_Moyes

Also ref still giving them everything

alderz

Sorry how’s that not a foul

buffybegood

We need to get on top soon, we struggle late on in games, and, with the bench we've got, we need to win within 90 mins.

Another foul on Antonio not given.

Potato farm mention

alderz

Commentator mentioned Bowen’s farm exercises. Classic..

alderz

Some of these decisions are outrageous

Jorderz_Moyes_will_be_Moyes

Ref is not giving Antonio anything

buffybegood

Great chance but the angle too narrow for Bowen.

MIAHammer

Alvarez looks like his tank is empty.

Jorderz_Moyes_will_be_Moyes

Alvarez has been great but he looks shattered now

alderz

We need some energy off the bench but I really don’t know who there is to bring it. Maybe Johnson for Alvarez or Cresswell?

MIAHammer

They seem to have an extra man in midfield now. Controlling the middle of the park.

buffybegood

The problem is that Johnson is cover for just about everyone; once you bring him on for someone, everyone else needs to see out the full 90.

Jorderz_Moyes_will_be_Moyes

Ref has been atrocious. I’m so sick of seeing decisions go against us

alderz

It feels like we’ve run out of steam a bit. We need the crowed up to give them a bit more juice.

buffybegood

We got lucky, surely Fabianski has to hold that cross.

Which ref does? I sometimes think he's got to have a limb pulled off before he's awarded a foul.

Jorderz_Moyes_will_be_Moyes

Joke ref
