Ings runs like he's 45.

Getting outpaced by Thiago Silva, who nearly IS 45.

Silva is world class CB in fairness. All about how to position himself at his age and he's superb at it.

File alongside McGrath, P

Steady.

Thiago Silva has had a spectacular career. I’m all for rose tinted glasses and considering our best ever defender the best ever, but compared to some of the best ever he pales in comparison when considering complete body of work. That’s not to diminish the career of Paul McGrath; it’s elevating it into that lofty conversation.

Spot on. The game moves in slow motion for him.

Silva is your common or garden elite footballer - undoubtedly brilliant, but Paul McGrath was an artist, despite (perhaps because of) his flaws.

Speaking of him Silva’s game seems to be over. They will have lost both CB’s in the space of a couple of minutes.

Too much space opening up on that left side.

We are being far too generous here. They are all over us and we can’t retain possession

We'll be doing well to get half the openings we did in the first period now.

What we get, we'll need to make count.
