    Lamela has the touch and control of a kid walking onto the football pitch for the first time.

    We're all over the place since the goal. Need to regain our composure or we'll concede soon and that'll be it.

    Blatant dive by Gomes on the edge of the box. Why no card given?

    Amazing to think that Chiriches and Fazio were captains at their previous clubs (wasn't Chiriches? And/or national captain?).

    Yet we have ended up buying two accident-prone centre backs in successive summers.

    Really poor second half so far...dont think we have created a single chance
    and every time davies gets it out wide its a wasted cross

    What concerns me now is that certain key players are going to spend the rest of this game chasing the ball like crazy and will be knackered come Sunday; blowing our biggest chance of silverware this season.

    2-0. Game over. Looked like a push on Vertonghen to me, but it would be soft.
    This is why we should've sent out the stiffs. Go there strong, lose anyway and knackered for the final.

    Edit: Wasn't a push, just really poor touch by Vertonghen. That's rubbish.

    What was I saying about CBs we've bought who were captains at their previous clubs having loads of mistakes in them?

    Feels like our defence is the worst it's been for years. Still at least our record signing winger's biggest strength is tracking back...

    Hitting form at the right time, that's what it's all about. Not sure what we're attempting though

    Walker on for Vertonghen. Fair enough. Chiriches to the middle, presumably.

    And now Cheery Cheese and Fazio are the CB pairing. I'm hiding behind the sofa.

    Some of our players look like they've given up, while Lamela's running about like a headless chicken.

    His end product might have been dodgy and blah de blah but I just think that he gave more problems to the opposition and forced the issue so much more than Lamela. And though Lamela's best asset is his work rate and tracking back Lennon beats him on that too.
