It must be something in the water up there.

I’m fairly certain Steve Bruce has never drunk water

Arambat/Evans/Casimero solid but slow.

Bruno and the young boys are enjoying themselves.

Entertaining half.

One of the better battles for 7th I’ve seen recently

Bruno making a huge difference as expected.

Amad link up is great.

Can't control a game for more than a minute

That £#%&!ing #@&%!head in net

Amad has really disguised his talents from the manager well, hasn't he? Who knew he was a decent option?

Just lazy with the ball and concentration

Watch dalot move into the midfield and right next to Amrabat where neither of them were an option, Onana tries to go long gives the ball away and now the team is nowhere near set up correctly to defend

Pretty good performance by our standards
Still don’t handle prosperity well as we don’t kick on after scoring

Mainoo, Bruno and Amad have been very good
Amrabat is strange in that he’s a bit shit but makes the team so much better by just staying in that position and shielding the defence

Garnacho is playing himself out of the Wembley 11
Awful again
Looks a boy playing with men

Can see this being the team for the final. Maybe Martinez if fit.

Garnacho may pop up with a goal but he needs a break. Looks spent.

Amad will keep Antony out of the team from now on.

Amrabat looks solid again.

We've missed Bruno. Easily our most important player.

We've not done too bad. There was a spell for ten minutes after the goal where we couldn't get the ball but we got through it.

Garnacho badly needs a rest against Brighton. We’ve got options there too.

He needs to rise above it and focus on the warm up. Get your head in the game. Forget anyone shouting crap at you from the stands .

Makes you think how thick skin the likes of Rooney would have been when shouts of granny £#%&!ger followed him for his whole career

He should, but I have my doubts that he will.

A million views of the penalty claim but nothing from when the Newcastle #@&%! slid down Fernandes’s achillies mins into the game

I do hope our wonderfully tactically aware manager has noticed that we are a lot more fluid with no Antony, Hojlund or Rashford. It's just a silly dream on my part because I know they will be back to stink out the final.

I know this is probably wrong to say, but Dalot looks a lot more comfortable than any other poor bastard we have forced to be left back.

We know he doesn’t take these things well. Expect a “anyone who knows me knows…” caption on instagram under a photo of him with his old PE Teacher

Turning it on for a place in the Europa Conference League.

Looking forward to cheering each successful pass in the second half.*

*Just kidding. Not watching.
