3-0, Aribo via a deflected shot.

That was another well worked goal, Kent playing it through to Arfield who breaks the lines, slipped through to Aribo who cuts inside and finds the far corner, via a wee deflection. 

Stop it Rangers! I can't keep up with this.  

Typing up the first, and we've scored again. 

Good goal: Whipped in ball from Tavernier, Roofe heads it back across goal.

Wee bit of luck to win the ball back, but a nice reverse pass from Defoe, and an intelligent square ball from Kent tees up Arfield for a tap-in. 

I like that. Kent could quite easily have went himself, but he's ensured the goal.

Should read have had yet another team lie down.

And in other news: Water is wet.

Defoe's a surprise, but the others aren't. 

I was hoping to see Itten get some minutes. 

It's a pretty attacking group of players. 

I think it's important we rotate. 

The players cannot play twice a week for months without negative effects. 

We've got the squad; we must use it. 

I'd like to see Itten retain his league place, and rest Kent.

Hagi will be useful, I think.  

I think Kamara will be rested - it's been Jack or Kamara in the league, not usually both.

Would have been almost impossible to predict Rangers scoring 3, i think whoever managed that should've been awarded at least 10 points.? 

 

 

 

You get 1... and an apology.

Dont think so

Now that they've scrapped the $14.95 PPV, do we get the extra games tacked on to our normal package? 

Unsurprisingly, there were very few points picked up. 

Correct Result (1 pt): Dado, compo, Yorkie, BF, Stevie, GS, DJ, TinMan, MacK, Ian, T-1000, DMAA, Ted and 26th.

To get a draw against european giants like Benfica is really a tremendous res--

Too soon.

Yes but Roofe for Morelos was an obvious one. He was tiring. Barker for Kent would have brought in fresh legs too. 

He's just not one for making changes mid game. 

He's not wrong, per se.

I don't think we needed to freshen it up, but I do think we needed a couple of subs to wind down the clock, just when we were starting to lose a grip.

It does. We are a good team. Be we are good enough to see out a 3-1 win against 10 men. That is a huge advantage and ultimately we squandered it. Maybe I shouldn’t be but I’m annoyed that they couldn’t do a couple of basic things to see out the win after doing the hard bit so well. 

Yeah, we are a good side but we do lack a bit of nous; that dirty streak that the best sides have.

I'm annoyed too: we just needed to play clever and simple. They scored two from us giving it away by trying to force it.

It must be said, the sub we did make f*cked up. ?

I hope we take the disappointment into the league. 

It's easy to get complacent when we keep getting good results in Europe, I think.

Benfica played it brilliantly for the last 30 minutes but they were still reliant on us making mistakes.

We did.

We definitely should have been using subs to run down the clock.

The whole team, actually, needs to be more clever and cynical.

Gutted.

I would've bit your hand off for a draw before, but we had our hands on 3 points, and virtual qualification.

Gutted.

Threw it away.

On the cusp of something magnificent.

We need to use this disappointment to spur us on.

It's a stunning ball, but f*ck sake!

What a joke.

Use the head!
