Considering who we were up against, away, and having lost Lenihan and Howson, and not having Steffen and Chuba available I think last night went exceptionally well (other than the result).
Not quite sure what else people expect in those circumstances, especially if they think we're so poor?
We dominated the start, up until about 15-20 mins, then they dominated us when they kept finding Pedro and Sarr, who clearly should not be in this league, not sure what we're meant to do about that. We seemingly can't/ won't pay £10m for a striker and they've got two £30m ones, for now at least.
We kept Pedro and Sarr very quiet second half, and definitely had the better of them, which probably made up for them having the better of us for 2/3 of the first half.
Overall I would have expected a draw, maybe 2-2 from what I saw. They got extremely lucky with their second goal (this HAS to end soon
), but we got away with the Fry pull, but we should have been leading long before this anyway.
