Playing great. Best I’ve seen for a long time. Be good to have a statement win today, 3-0.

FIFA refs are quite frustrating.

I agree. Shocked at our intensity. Playing a lot quicker too

Either way we’ll still lose 2-1

Pretty good so far. Bads looks off his game today.

Best I’ve seen of lavia so far.

Pretty funny that Maresca has a strategy which involves Palmer being wide left (and Cucurella in the middle) which doesn't also involve having Madueke on the pitch and on the end of every chance.

Each to their own I suppose...

When you say off his game, I assume you mean he is being consistent!

This has a familiar pattern. Enterprising start, not scoring when we should/could, defensive frailties from you know who. Second half major drop off from us.

Come on Blues, let's break this pattern

These US commentators are doing my head in….stop already!!!!

Is it just my stream that has Caicedos hair camouflaged with the grass? Looks like he’s got a small flat head.

What channel are you watching on? On DAZN the main guy is a Scot

That Benfica coach looks quite fierce

Drinks break gives Maresca time to impart some pearls of wisdom.

Haha fair. Tho suppose he was good on the ball at some point… if nothing else.

Team is very inconsistent both in attack as well as D. Lots of work ahead.

English, or in fact Irish, ones aren't any better. Sub Tropical? North Carolina? Eh?

Decent until now but Benfica are hardly busting their balls pressing us….need to get a 2 goal lead or this is going to turn to sh*t the 2nd half, CC was unlucky with the shot off the line but these chances won’t count for anything if we don’t score

Sub Tropicana drinks are free!

Delap's technique looks a little too sloppy.

What a ball Delap, f**k me

Better than Jackson you all say?

Going to take a while for Delap to adjust

If only we could finish some of these chances...

This ref absolutely hates Cucu

"I only acknowledge that I am the smartest person in the world (despite the Oracle) because I alone know that I know nothing"

Humanity is regressing

Fck me, we're not beating this keeper tonight

Cucurella on the end of the chance (even a headed one) is a good idea
