Worst Outcome: Injured Players. Extra-Time, Pens and Lose.

If you have a player sent off and it gets to the 11th kick, tough shit, you don't get to take one.
Why 11th

They should only get 4 spot kicks not 5
Good point.

Blessing in disguise, now let’s go beat Palace at the weekend then it’s week to week, every game a cup final to win this fucking league title.

COMMMMMME ONNNNNNN


We'll see how we respond to this defeat - last season when the pressure came on in the run in we collapsed, so we'll see how we react now

Really deserved that, we were piss poor all night, just constantly giving the ball away. I knew Martinelli would miss, just don't ever trust him in a big moment. Really don't see us raising it for Sunday.

To be honest, we would have lost to Utd eventually and I'd rather not do that. Fingers crossed the injuries are slight and we can use this to galvanise us for the league

Ramsdale should have saved three of those.

Didn't do enough to win it over 2 legs.

Over to the league
We did. We should have been out of sight in the first leg but gifted it them. We should be wiping the floor with them tbh but seem to shit the bed in Europe.

Don't care about the result care about the pointlessness of it and the arm it could do to the league. Pray saliba is fine and we beat place as there shit.

Tbh, he shouldn't have been beaten from the half way line.

I know hindsight is a wonderful thing etc, but I would have preferred we went out in the normal 90minutes.


Defeat always tastes more bitter when you've put in that extra-mile etc. :?

Before anyone starts, this is not a snide dig at Ramsdale, but when was the last time we had a keeper that saved penalties? Can't remember Leno ever saving one. For years now, a penalty for the opposition is a certain fucking goal. I knew their bloke had at least one save in him and knew we'd fucking lose.
