Yet here we are - an army of internet fans intent on picking holes rather than highlighting the successes. We pumped a decent enough side 4-1 and currently top the group that everyone was calling the group of death. We played some delightful one touch stuff for large parts and opened them up on the reg. we had a few scares at the back but dealt with it reasonably well. Their goal came from a set piece.
We didn’t maintain the intensity of the start for the whole match - we didn’t £#%&!ing need to as we were 3-0 up after 35 mins and in fact very few team do.
So a couple of positive words followed a paragraph of shite. Again.

Group of death might be stretching it a tad though tbf
