    Can we afford let Angella go if Britos cannot stay on the pitch?

    Abid misses a good chance with a free kick... last chance?

    On that evidence I doubt he'll make the 17... Britos, that is.

    I feel very sad for those who made the long journey because that was not good.

    You will not score if you do not have shots.

    1 shot on target.
    Is it the system?

    About the 17 - is it Angella v Britos?

    More worried about the one shot on target than going out of the competition. Flores is forcing a system on the team which does not suit any of our offensive players.

    agreed... and I remember that used to be common in Europe where one goal would decide a match.... different game here IMO

    Many teams in the PL play with one striker up front, but the attacking midfielders show far greater quality in getting the telling pass through. From what I have seen so far this season we have concentrated on making the defence more solid at the expense of scoring goals. Far too many of our passes go astray, and we are not playing at the speed of some other teams. It may be a case of balance as we do look better when using the wings and spreading the opposition defence more, but after the way we put goals away last season so far it has become a bit of a let down.

    Apart from 2005 have we ever had a good run in this?

    Not come to gloat wasn't sure whether your second string really fancied a wet Tuesday in the north just as a matter of interest we made 6 changes as well and deserved the win
