I’ll take that, feared the worst after the first 10 mins. I think we’ll do this.

Need to wrap Son in bubble wrap until the second leg as knowing our luck he'll get hurt against Bournemouth.

That’s 3 defeats in 4 matches, again.

Our recent form has been shockingly, shockingly bad. Unforgivably bad.

Running on fumes with injuries to boot. We do need Eriksen and Alli to play better though.

Dele - shit
Moura - shit
Wanyama - horrendous
Llorente - shit but still Llorente
Eriksen - invisible

Wow. Pathetic.

Well after that second half I'm alot more hopeful than after that first 35 minutes!

OK. Not great. But not terrible.

Showed them way, way too much respect in the first half. Play like we did in the second - press them, harry them, bully them - and we can take them.

stop talking about us potentially beating them with a fully fit team - thats irrelevant.. the reality is we didn't' have a fully fit team now and won't have it for the rematch.

I do think we can beat them with sissoko and son in the team though.

shame about verts - can be game changing in the run in for top 4 as well as for next week.

What a limp display. We wouldn't score if we played till the 2nd leg kicked off.

We dont deserve to be in this semi final. And we dont deserve to be in CL next year either. We're lucky Arsenal and Chelsea are bottling it.

If we've learned anything from tonight it's if Sissoko's fit he starts.

Badly let down by Lucas and Llorente up top tonight. Both were woeful and wasteful.

Feel very confident we can score with a similar approach we had in the second half in the second leg with Sissoko and Sonny Both starting.

Foyth looks so much more secure at RB with and without possession.

Dropping season for Trippier.

People suggesting Llorente was good- give me a fucking break.

Rose was good, Sissoko was good. Those players fucking put it ALL on the line and thats why they are loved here.

It's nuts how much we miss Winks. His difference is subtle but we transition so quickly with him. Great to have Son back and Sissoko but Winks would be the difference.

Oddly not nearly as gutted as I was on Saturday. We busted a gut for 60 minutes and wrested back control but just so lacking in quality and firepower.

It’s not over

"So many young players come through the you system" said Rio about Ajax. I would like to see some of our attacking youth prospect on the bench to offer an exciting attacking option in the rest of the games we have this season. Surely we must have someone who could change a game?

Moura and Llorente are both fucking awful.

Disagree on Moura. He was isolated up front as Llorente provides f’ all with little movement to create space for attackers around him. Moura was one of better performers tonight imo. Dele and Llorente were awful.
