    They certainly could, great keeping by Courtois and a great game by Matic. Our attack was subdued for sure, but this was PSG at home ! Good result, but still plenty to do at the Bridge.

    Where was cahill for their goal???

    He had a decent game but that mistimed jump cost us a REALLY goo result. Oh well we drew and executed the game plan was a good matvh between two good teams, I expect us to go through now. no excuses

    Long may that continue!

    It looked like we had last season's 3-1 in our mind. Paris must have forgotten last year, First gear all first half.

    But Cahill doesn't fill with any confidence in defense. Yet another mistake. I would rather him as striker than as CB!

    Fab and Costa weren't fit; we missed Oscar's energy and pressing high up. Even Willian's work rate was down.

    With Willian Costa and Oscar sharper we'll get at them more in the second leg

    She's a complete pain in the arse who knows absolutely **** all about football. Proper thick c*nt.

    Reading on the United board that he thinks we're just in good form this season and that PSG will batter us in the next round. Poorest wum on the planet.

    She's harmless Drogs, just pops in with the occasional ******ed comment when she's bored. Can't really see any harm being done here, except the harm to logic and the average IQ of this board.

    Cahill is just not quite good enough, not a bad player but just not there. Don't understand why Zouma didn't play, he's been going great guns. Jose is a cautious bugger, sometimes too cautious. Still ,we have an away goal, and Costa, Fabregas and Willian can all play a lot better than they did in Paris.

    Not quite sure why people are blaming Cahill for the goal.
    I am far from his biggest fan but from what I could see it was definitely JT's fault.
    JT drifted back towards the back post because he was tracking Ibrahimovic, but Azpi was already covering him so there was no need, Cavani should have been JT's man.

    Good result we'd have all taken before kick off. Certainly an improvement on last year! PSG are a very good side but are much better at home. I'd be amazed if we didn't get the job done at the bridge now, especially (and hopefully) with a fitter first 11. It was clear Fabregas and Costa at least were not 100%.

    Classic Jose away performance. We'll be much better at home, very similar to the Liverpool semi. Good news is, away goals count after 90 not 120 in the C.L as well. Pressure all on PSG.

    The result just got better with the news that Iva, Oscar, hazard, fab and Willian had not trained all week.

    Never seen Willian in particular lack so much energy.

    Costa and Azpi, unusually, was poor

    Its not a great performance - really quite poor. However, we go into the next clash with a slim advantage with a team that had key players unfit.

    I'm blaming Cahill for the goal because he was on the pitch somewhere so it must of been because of him. Two teams set out not to lose equals bore draw. We lost 3-1 last time so a bit better this time.

    Cahill's jump was mistimed for their goal. He had enough time to judge that.

    Maybe, but it was a little too high for him.
    Regardless, JT should have been covering Cavani anyway, so it shouldnt have mattered.

    am i right in thinking that our away goal only serves us if it ends 0 0 at the bridge?
