Corner for them, bit of pressure on us again.

Yeah Jones was just a bit weak then...

the diagonal balls out wide are working quite well.

Jones with a very poor free kick, this one didn't come back to him to setup a goal though!

He has just give them a free for holding, the ref is so inconsistent in his decisions.

My prediction was dependent on who got the first goal, so was worried when I seen we conceded first. If we can get to half-time at 1-1, or better still, 2-1, I think we'll go on to win.

Jones puts in a decent tackle to prevent them from countering. It was very delicate but did the job.

Mcdonald with a poor clearance, they put a cross in we clear it.

Jones gets pushed over and the game slows down for a FK

Grendel said Doyle is the man

The truth is many posters make statements on here. The only one that everyone remembers is from Grendel.

I have participated in the phone in occasionally - once in his first tenure foster who seems obsessed with Doyle and linnell trotted out the line - every team needs a Michael Doyle - and I asked whose is Manchester United's and whose is Barcelonas (may have been Real Madrid)

Silence followed by the linnell chuckle of insencerity.

Best first half of the season so far. Could be a cracking second half.

Biamou is winning and directing headers from our goal kicks and free kicks well, our players need to start gambling from them. One went into a perfect position but nobody there.

Was an amazing ball from kelly. But the full back did have his arm across Jones, it wasn't shoulder to shoulder so despite being a bit weak he could easily have given it.

I would take a point, but would be over the moon with a win now.

If we come out with our traditional better second half and can nick one early, hopefully they will chase the game and we can kill it off :)

Manchester United - Matic & Fellaini.
Real Madrid - Casemiro.
Barcelona - Busquets.
Or have I got this wrong?

Half time thoughts from an iFollow viewer......

The early penalty was nailed on. Worst decision I have seen this season. Impressive half for us overall. I've not been the biggest advocate of Biamou but tonight he looks a real presence and threat. Jones dangerous again and his millionth assist of the season. Not sure he should be our set piece specialist though however much I love him. Their goal was fortunate and I don't recall any chance they had before that. Sky Blue Army fantastic support for the lads. Let's go on and win this one!!!

Their defence look shit scared of all our forwards and Biamou getting in behind them twice early on has pushed them really deep which has allowed DKE and Jones to attack them in dangerous positions and our midfield to push a bit higher than usual. If the ref stops being a dick, we could batter these 2nd half.
