Why does he persist with konsa at rb. Fucking irritating

Christ only knows, he's been dreadful there.

Looking at the bench there’s a distinct lack of options

They've got 6 men behind the ball every time we're in the final third, then we're just far too slow and pedestrian to break them down. Konsa to Cash to Konsa, back and forth. Awful.

They have declared and why shouldn't they? They are just sitting in front of us picking us off every time we look vaguely threatening

We are expending so much time and energy just to get speculative shots from the edge of the box. The approach isn’t working.

That was set up not to consede an early goal

Yep. It’s done now, the rest of this tie is just going through the motions.

Maybe next year we can have a decent crack at the FA Cup for a change!

They're going to leave us have the ball as much as we want it. I'd have Duran on for Diaby and get a bit of physicality in there.
