We knew their weakest point was the defence, yet we opted not to test it! SG must take some blame, surrendering the midfield.
We didn't surrender the midfield; we blocked off the midfield quite effectively.
We did surrender possession to their back-three/four, which was not a bad thing in itself.

The front players were to isolated too get any quality coming out of defence. Along with the 2nd half with Motherwell, that's 2 games that we've squandered the midfield for long balls. I hope this is not a sign of things to come because we have Lafferty ie. A big guy up front
Agreed.
Everyone wanted a target-man....

The only positive I can take is they battered us for an hour and it took a break from a foul for them to score.
We need to see so much more when we have the ball, though. I didn't expect a high-pressing game after the mid-week exertions, but the long diagonal to Lafferty -- OK in itself -- didn't bear much fruit.

I thought the contain tactic was OK, it was the out-ball that was atrocious; we couldn't go anywhere when we got the ball and gave it back.

Just when I thought we had a team of players of the required quality, they come up against them and look like amateurs.
Really frustrating.

I get that first image until the tweet embeds properly; i just give it a second or two.
I don't get the second.

I think Man City could set a better total here than the England top order.
They look good; Newcastle not so much.
Edit: Maybe not.

I'm reluctant to set any objectives with this group -- some games look winnable, others not. I would have bitten your hand off to just get into the group stages at the start of the season.
I think we should just take each game as it comes. If we can construct a position to perhaps qualify for the KO stages, then great; if not, then no issues.

We don't half shoot ourselves in the foot. We've finally got a half-decent goalscorer and we're actually contemplating moving him on because he's a wee bit petulant? Mental.
The only player I can recall who I'd ever serious consider selling because of a disciplinary record would be Luis Suarez; he missed 20-odd games through suspension. Even then I wouldn't because the benefits out-way the negatives.

That's a bad cough you've got there, BD.

Hopefully we'll see a flurry of activity because of our qualification.

I was a bag of nerves, but that was f*cking outstanding.

Good preview Pete, but I really can't take it seriously without the proper thread prefix. I've been spoiled.

The real question is 'how for no is Antti Niemi no called up?'

I agree we did allow their deep playmakers to dictate play, but I would much rather -- If we're not going to press them -- we gave them the ball deep and marked their passing options. I felt we did that. Broon and Ntcham had plenty of time of the ball but McGregor, Rogic and that other one were never in the game.
