The regret was that we didn't really have a sustained period of pressure on the Bayern goal. The second half was mostly one way traffic (apart from Gervinho's chance) but that's because of the lack of quality in central midfield.

I think its more about how well the defence played, given how little protection they get from the midfield. Most of Bayerns shots were from distance. It was the midfielders giving the ball away easily that put us in trouble. Yet we won 2-0, incredible really!Originally Posted by AKBapologist
We had four shots on goal, somehow bundled two in, and then shat ourselves for last five mins when it counted.
Sorry, not impressed at all. Nothing to be proud of here.
Rosicky should stay in but only because Wenget's hand has been forced with Wheelchair's injury.
I'm sure Action Man Vermaelen will be back though, and Sagan if he's fit.
I can't state how much I hope this happens.
that.
No real pressure tonight and while I didn't expect us to get a result, thinking about it we do often get one when the pressure is off. We've won the second half in a few games when they've been all but lost. We emerge with some credit from tonight but we need to do it under pressure.
well you're an idiot.
That's still an issue. When the pressure's on we tend to wilt. Combine that with a lack of attacking quality there's a lot of work to be done in the Summer.
Alan Smith saying we should stick with the same back 5.
Alan Smith is always right.
A decent team would have monstered Bayern tonight, they were not up for it at all.
