Hoddle Is A God said:
It wasn't our best display, that's for sure.

Poch graciously made no excuses for the state and size of the pitch, but I think neither he nor the team set themselves up to play on it. If they did, then our performance was even more shocking.

I have absolutely no doubts that we'll sweep them aside with ease on the Wembley turf.

Lessons do, however, need to be learned.

You should win at Wembley for sure, but your line up may be "weaker" due to your upcoming rival clashes and the 2 cl legs, I'm not sure where the replay falls into those games but it's a replay you probably won't want when the time comes.

I think he will field a weakened side in the replay, but I expect us to be a lot less naïve that we were first time out.

Also, I'm expecting him to revert to just the one striker, as we did in the last 30 minutes, yesterday, when our shape was a lot better.
 
What the hell is going on in the Cardiff V city game? That second goal has caused so much confusion. Even the commentators on the BBC were talking about how the goal will stand and the game will restart from the centre circle, despite the Cardiff keeper taking a free kick from his 6 yard box, the Cardiff fans cheering about it being disallowed, and the goal being chalked off. Total mess! <laugh>

If that was deemed offside, as well as the baggies yesterday having one ruled out , then the Newport goal shouldn't have stood.
 
I wonder if they will keep Rafa? He seems to be wasting his time at Newcastle.He won a second division championship thanks to Brighton but has done nothing else but put Newcastle in a dodgy position.
 
What do we think about Aubameyang going to the Goons. Looks likely at the moment. Have to say he's one of the few oppos we've played in Europe that really scared me. When we played them in the EL he was sensational. Not so much in the CL this year, but if his head is in the right place for Arsenal could be some improvement for them. Knocks socks off Lacazette.

Fraudiola once again banging on about referees protecting players after Sane picked up an injury against Cardiff.

Here's a suggestion Pepe: maybe don't use the exact same players in every single match so they actually have time to rest up?

That is very nasty of you.

How would you like to be manager/supporter of a
club like Citeh, that cannot afford to have 22 "top"
players and therefore risks players getting injured ??

The irony for me is that Sane will be out for about a month ( so say the reports ). Some players get an injury that keeps them out for over a year so what's the big deal.

The month was a guess. He's being assessed today. The way his ankle went over, I'd guess at a bit longer, must have damaged ligaments, unless he is very lucky.
