Smelliest Wembley final for a while. One side of the ground will resemble Mordor and the other will only be a quarter full.

He looks far more like the on loan from Roma 20 million pound player than Le Fee does.

Credit to Sunderland, they have quality in the right places. Mayenda very good again. I don’t rate Ballard as a “footballer” but he is a good defender. I’ll be surprised if they can beat Sheffield United, but they’re in the lottery now so who knows. Next season I want us to be a sustained top 6...

Gutting. Brave performance from the lads.

Decent half, if a bit risky, but I guess we have to be. Missing that clinical touch. The lads are trying hard and look up for it at least.

It’s quite an open game. We’re taking some risks!

Where have you seen this? Haven’t seen it mentioned anywhere else…

I thought 100+ pages were mandatory before a signing is confirmed?

Considering this thread was clearly started as a joke, I’m impressed at the way it has become a genuine transfer rumour within three pages!

It was only a few games ago they booed their players off the pitch, sat in 4th place doing that is wild!

There is a bit more to football than “win” and “lose”, but obviously you don’t seem to be capable of understanding or seeing that and making observations irrespective of the result and that is fine.

Mad that Sheaf is a centre mid and he’s pretty silky on the ball, but he’s also one of the last people you want the ball to drop out of the sky to on the edge of the opposition penalty area. Bobby Thomas strikes a ball well more consistently!

Also, don’t want to take anything away from Sunderland who I think executed their game plan perfectly, knowing it exploited our weaknesses. They defended the box so well and the finishes from the lads up front were very good. That Mayenda is a huge talent. It’s a risky game plan that paid off...

Find the narrative “we didn’t turn up” weird. We lost due to a mistake made by a largely good player. Wright was maybe the only player I felt that didn’t “turn up” and he’s still our biggest goal threat. There’s an arguments to be had over whether we’d have been better off starting a taller...

I mean anyone that watches football regularly could see we did show up. Did we do enough in the final third? No. Second leg is the important one anyway!

So glad some of the people on here don’t play for us, some right bottle jobs. There’s 90 minutes of football left and we have to score a couple of goals against a team whose midfield this evening looked like ghosts. Chill!

A fair criticism. Kind of feel like we have to have at least one rapid centre back if we do that. I know MVE drops in but sometimes he is too far out wide to help on a counter.

He defended really well against Patrick Roberts a few times and was decent going forward, always providing an option for a pass.

Yeah I think they’ll give it a go.

Exactly this.
