When we drew against Kairat Almaty we had a back 4 of AJ, CCV, Scales and KT. Midfield was CM, Reo and Nygren.
Can someone tell me after a year on, an older CM, a lackluster Reo, AJ out, CCV still trying to get back to full fitness and KT still not back to full fitness, why we really thought we’d go through in Europe against an even stronger team? Was it Hogh, Duran, or Bauer or hat made you think that. Or was it just pinning more hopes to MON?
We’ve brought 4 players in and before talking about starting 11 we haven’t even replaced the 5 loan signings we let go!
All that said, I’m somewhat happy we’re back n Europa. I hate watching us get humped 3/ 4-0 against teams that are so much better. It’s a building process to play at that level and the problem as we all know, is we’ve never built for that.

100% accurate.
As big Sutton posted this time last year and then again on Tuesday night;- Fail to prepare, prepare to fail.

Hindsight is wonderful thing. Easy to say now no one was saying this last week.

They had very real threat in first leg. Any coach / manager with a clue about football should have seen they were very decent going forward.

433 in my opinion done us. Why chase a game you're already winning 3-0.
