Brilliant performance against a very good team, they were much changed from their destruction of Bayern but still 5 players from that team and the backups are nae mugs
The tactics to counterattack were spot on I think, thats a few times its worked well in Europe but Barry - the league is a different animal
Kudos to Shayden - taken a lot of flak but did well last night before fading a little, maybe fitness. Milne looks a player every game - high hopes for him. Devlin should have had a pen - watched that a few times and I can't see the defender getting the ball at all. Polvara does not look out of place in Europe - can find a pass. The whole defence did very well - solid and organised, Ruby had a couple of scares early on but was cruising after that and Roos was excellent
On that note its looking likely him and Barron are off - hope I'm wrong but with Barron changing agencies and Roos quiet on the contract front we will need to replace them both
Duk and Sokler both coming into form at the right time given the games we've got this month, hope we see Duk especially finish the year strongly
Proud of our performances in Europe, with a bit more luck and nous we could have got out of the groups. I saw Hacken did not get a single point in their europa group and ended with a GD of -14. I'm convinced we would have done better in their place (IF we could have got motoring a little earlier in the season)
Please, please don't use the same tactics on Sunday Baz - the huns have a slow defence and any pace will reap rewards against them
Pretty wild considering the result how quiet this thread is - hopefully Sundays crashes the site for the right reasons!
