    Silva looked at his team, he gave kids a chance, he rested some who might now feel threatened, he will be hugely satisfied with that performance. But he will have seen things to work on:

    Maguire, know how to release the ball in attack.
    Bowen, don't get sucked in.
    Attack the ball on crosses and dead pieces.
    And he and his coaches will have seen more.

    Oh, and the videos, he will dissect the movement of the ManU players and drill it into our lads, all of them, because he is telling them the shirts have to be earned.

    What next; more coming in, another variation of the attacking theme in the next cup game, tight-lipped progression?

    Oh well, ****e this, hey? <laugh>

    You can't doubt the spirit of this team , The Allams are doing their best to crush it , but I reckon Marco might just turn the season around

    Mind you, just checked it was 1974 = 42+ years ago. I was there. Feel very old all of a sudden!

    Can't wait to go to work tomorrow, <badger><party>!

    Great performance tonight, I could slate Marshall for that goal, but he only had 2 things to do. 1 great save & 1 pick the ball out of the net.

    Niasse finished well!
    The bits & pieces players did well tonight!

    I've seen that team a few times under phelan and I can say without a doubt they play way better football under Marco. I honestly think in 2 or 3 games it will click and we will start climbing the league. He's got them playing good football and not just hoffing the ****ing ball up the pitch.

    Great result for the boys. Hopefully give them some confidence.

    Pleased for Bowen and Niasse.

    I'm really starting to like Marco Silva and his team.

    Up the tigers.

    Allam out.

    I am hugely encouraged by Silva. I'm equally ****ed off with our owners at what we might have left of the squad by the time the deadline closes.

    I watched you last night and thought you were dreadful. You couldn't score past Southampton in 180 minutes? We scored 2 in 180 seconds!!

    Another 3-4 players who can plày like that will be excellent.

    Silva's biggest challenge is breaking the Curse of the Missing Goals - I would want all of any incoming focussef on that.

    It is a bit complicated. More to that song than meets the eye. Scroll down and it explains where the lyric comes from.
