We'd be, literally, 5-0 down right now if it weren't for Cech :facepalm:

Hope Robbie gives them a real hiding at HT.

Very well deserved defeat. Absolute shite tonight :facepalm:

We just better be thanking our lucky stars Juventus [somehow] haven't beaten NordsLOLand tonight, or else we would have been in serious, serious trouble right now.

We also completely forfeited any chance we had of getting the late, late equaizer with those atrocious longballs. How long will it take these players to realize it's not 2011 and we can NOT play that way successfully anymore?

Well,looking at the bright side this would be a good result in the knockout stages

They scored a poor goal early which put them on top and overall we just defended poorly imo. Most of our team had a fairly average game and Cech played really well, making a few top top saves.

We didn't seem to have the intensity we had against Arsenal/Spurs. I don't know whether i'm imagining it or making excuses but if we played like we did against those guys we should have won. We had a strong team so no excuse.

Yeah, will be a big match. Hopefully they are not as strong as they are at home.
