    Really wouldn't be this nerve-wracking had we finished them off in the first leg.

    This is why I hate having the 2nd leg at home. From this season it's quite clear we don't exactly have a home advantage, so only Celta benefits due to the away goal rule.

    Why do our players just keep running with the ball?? Herrera the latest. Just pass the ball.

    We are playing like the away team. Shite. Not caring about getting a draw in this game, it's so cynical. We should be comfortably beating this lot at home! They aren't very good at all
    We're in a position where they need to score two goals, do you want us to do a Crystanbul?

    I love how every long range or mile wide shot, they and the manager act like it's just bounced of the underside of the bar and hit the goal line.

    We do this whole playing on the counter thing half right. We're good at frustrating the opposition and protecting our goal, but we can't do anything in attack to alleviate the pressure. In the long run it just spells trouble.

    Would any other major club play so defensively against a minnow? I understand it's a result-orientated business, but can you imagine a Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, PSG, etc. playing in this manner?
    Trouble is, we ain't any of them and we are no where near it either.

    We need to realise what we are and it is a team in the 2nd tier of European football.

    I just don't understand why Mourinho insists on NEVER going in for the kill against inferior opposition. It's come back to bite us in the ass enough times that you'd think he'd start considering it at some point.

    We're lucky we haven't conceded a goal in the last few minutes, which would've meant total panic stations. It's infuriating to watch us with no attacking intent, too, when we so clearly could exploit our lead to put the tie beyond doubt instead of parking the bus and sitting deep.
