Jesus Christ, what an earth does Sarri say to the players at half time? It’s always the same - manage ok in the first half and as soon as the second half starts we’re f**king abysmal.

It might just be the other team change tactics at HT and Sarri is slow to spot it.

Unbelievable !

Remember the days when if we scored first it was game over...

We literally can’t play football after half time. It’s killing us

Sarri's half time talks must be something else ?

I think they don't exist because he is chain smoking bogies to get his fix

obviously it's out of place for me to comment this considering we're 5-3 up on agg, but since last season, even since Mou's 15/16 season I've always said that our defense is the area that let us down whenever we're having a mare of a season (15/16, 17/18, this season), and these 3 goals epitomize it. people always blame our attack in these seasons but for me defense personnel are the biggest culprits

You defend as a team. Everyone is responsible for defending. 

thank f**k he kept Eden on.

The defence play way too slow when they are passing and that seems to set the tempo for the rest of the team.

It was happening under Conte too. I think there is something wrong with the attitude of this group of players.

This often? I know it happened but it happens almost every week now, I don’t think it happens this much under Conte. 

we are really a pathetic team under Sarri, it's Slavia Prague for Christ sake !!!

I don't want to jinx it, but is one of the semi final matches on 9 May? .

It's my fault, isn't it, I did jinx it.

Kovacic offers nothing going forward and nothing in defence what’s the point in him.

Also today shows how important Rudi is..

We started bright abd thought it was all over. They score 2 screamers and we have hard time turning it on again. Sarri should switch personnel. 

what is happening...

Oh wake up for goodness sake, this is such a lazy approach to the second half from us.

Seriously. 

We have been poor second half.

we seem to always concede goals in the first 10mins of the 2nd half.

Sarri in Sarri out what the f**k, these useless f**kin so called players are sh*t

It’s like we give our players reverse Space Jam juice at half time these days

We will score a couple here. Relax. 

Wrong time to sub Hazard.

I don't think Sarri can spot anything, hes tactically inept, and his team talks at half time must be priceless!! Mind you he did admit he couldn't motivate team

Well he did get Senderos'd at the weekend so will presumably be playing for Nottingham Forest within two seasons...

Golden boy will sort it out, just when we need a solid defensive play he brings on our 'weakest' player when it comes to putting in a tackle ....
