A game of football is there to be analysed and constructive comment offered. Our lack of quality around the box is obvious and it showed over two legs. We have only scored 3 goals in the last 6 games and it's resulted in being out of the FAC and Europe.

We lack quality in creating chances.

If we are in Europe again and if RDZ can throw off the shackles of stubbornness and play the percentages a bit more.

Drilled to play the same way at the same tempo irrespective.

Haven't you watched us play recently?

I can't believe that any team in the PL lose the ball as much as we do in the attacking third.

We even try and take second touches from keeper rebounds. Roma don't even have to change their shape. They just sit in and wait for us to overplay and lose it. We are so so easy to play against.

They didn't in the first leg.

We just lack imagination in and around the box. Too predictable.

We have scored twice in our last 5 full games. Anyone expecting a goalfest against good opposition was deluded. I will be surprised if we actually win on the night.

Exactly.

The comeback needed to start in Rome.....hang on....Welbeck...!!!!

Tired of this constant overplaying now. Always one touch too many. Our style demands multiple touches all over the field and that includes the opposition penalty area.

If he ever scores it will be a complete fluke..eg a shot going miles wide taking a massive deflection.

I was thinking exactly the same thing. The mindset is very similar. Its high risk and demands absolute accuracy, which isn't always possible. The two methods allow no ' warming up ' period. Its all guns blazing from the word go. Crawley and Duckett go early, the middle order is exposed and...

Nothing will change. Slow tippy tappy from the back. Chances created and missed. Caught on the break......1-2.

....and we have never won a domestic trophy. We have the best squad in our history. Now is our chance. Beat Wolves...we had a ticket for the semis. We had no chance of winning the Europa League or even progressing deep into it. There are battle hardened teams in the EL. We are rookies. Earn your...

I am not convinced we will keep a clean sheet so on the basis that Roma will score at least once...who will get the 6-7 goals we need? ( One scored in the last 4 games )

Apparently not. European football has been a sideshow..a distraction. Its put too much pressure on our squad. Affected our PL form and led to many more injuries than we would have had. It's taught us a lesson. We were out of our depth last night. We had a much better chance of success in the FAC...
