Half the team going down in cramps at the end says it all. War of attrition

Pogba, Bailly, Williams, Maguire, Greenwood and Mata have played well. Rasford and Bruno were poor but in general, we were by far the better side and deserved to win by a much bigger margin.

We should be used to journeyman keepers playing out of their skin against us by now but that must be the best performance I've seen in absolutely years.

I don't like Pogba that deep. His game relies mostly on out-strengthening the oponnent to make some space for a pass. He has little impact on the game, yet can produce a couple of great passes when given time on the ball.


I'd give Fred some games I his position as he impressed me today.


Also, Matic is twice the player Carrick has ever been.

Seriously though does this keeper of theirs have a name for himself or is tonight a one off?

I only started on the beer late so the extra time was good for me to settle into my groove :wenger:

We were good. Would have scored 5 if they didn’t had Chuck Norris in goal.

The game that just wouldn't end.

We're through that's the main thing. We'll need to play a lot better in the semis.

MOTM is that FC Copenhagen GK. He was absolutely fantastic!

120 minutes of the worst finishing and decision making I've ever witnessed. Embarrassing that we have to rely on a penalty yet again to bail us out.

We really need another LB option for when Shaw is out because that left flank was a black hole without any supporting runs for the LW

We made it really much harder than it should have been but at the end of the day, job done.

Should play better and score our chances in the next 2 games though, or we might get an unpleasant result.

The opposition were organized defensively but they were terrible going forward so they were hardly a threat.

A truly ridiculous night.

We didn't play well, but we should have won by about 4 or 5.

Their keeper was prime Brad Friedel tonight, just a mental game .

The season that will never end continues!

Best GK performance against us since Neuer in 2011. He was absolutely outstanding.

When is the semifinal? Do we have 3 or 4 days to recover?
