    Well. I'm going to be philosophical about this.

    Yes,we need yo play it on the floor and press/attack much more. And I think we will moving forward.

    This team will find this a bitter pill. Should harden them up for next final. Which will be this year's Scottish Cup.

    With a bit more savvy that lot are bearable. Again. Press on now and murder Livingston, then Dundee.

    The game plan was to play for penalties, it didna work.

    A sackable offence in itself

    The game plan was to try and hit them on the counter attack and make set pieces count it didna work. We didn't have the quality whenever we almost looked like fashioning a chance.

    We have to get a proper manager, otherwise there is no hope.

    Shinnie - Pish
    Hayes - Pish
    Clarkson - Pish
    McGarry - Pish

    Not a single shot on target against a bang average Sevco team - Pish

    Sorry but that performance was once again unforgiveable by the team, yes they ran and restricted the Huns but the purpose of playing football is to try and WIN the game and not just stop the opposition.

    Poor individual performances, agree with that. Did we really do anything drastically different from the game against the Frankfurt B team or PAOK when we were just more clinical when we did get forward?

    We did the same against Eintracht, played on the counter attack, created two chances and scored two goals. Today we created one chance (Devlin’s ball across the goalmouth) and didn’t take it.

    Fine margins but a strategy which creates so few chances is always going to be hit and miss. I do think we have players with the ability to create more instead of leaving it to Roos to lump long and hope we pick up the second ball. There will always be opportunities for that in a game but not every time we have the ball in our half, please.

    One was in a dead rubber for us against a team that had nothing to gain/lose
    One we capitulated at the death when we all knew we weren't progressing out of that group
    One was in a major cup final against our major rivals.

    Which one was worse and which one would you expect/demand the team to test the keeper?

    Sorry but the team doesn't have a winning mentality when it really matters. I can only hope that AFC seriously look at the squad of players and management and instil however possible a stronger mindset.
