Was Silva knackered or injured ?
I was shocked when I saw that he was going off before Dessers.
So many players out there that are past it or will never be good enough for us.
And I wondered why Barisic was subbed -- was he the problem at the back ?
Wouldn't it have been better to have put fresh legs into our midfield/up front instead ??
But for me there are two big differences between these teams:
When they get the ball or are in front, their first thought is to go forwards and look for (more) goals.
And when we go forwards we can actually put a bit of pressure on (as witness our goal and the panic we caused them near the end) -- but we simply don't do it enough.
Actually, it IS just one difference then, between them and us -- their default is attack and ours is usually passing it back to the goalie.
In the end imo, that's what cost us -- we didn't have a fecking go at them, the same way that they did at us.
