    Given the performance, a draw is decent. Need a win in one of our next 2 for sure.

    Given the performance it’s a decent point … last few years we would’ve capitulated and lost that game by a few.

    Gutsy 2nd half performance

    Questions have to be as well about where the * is McCowan, yeah he's name is on the bench but how the * is Yang and Forrest getting on ahead of him when Hatate and Engels were not at their best today?

    Good point in the end there but * me, some utter * bag performances in there. Hatate and Engels especially. Frustrating as *.

    A hard fought point. Made it difficult for ourselves against a good side.

    Taylor and Engels need benched.

    We move on.

    Positives. We didn’t lose and they didn’t actually score a goal.

    We weren’t great at all and annoyingly that game was for the winning last 20 minutes.

    Hatate needs a breather and Engels needs a bit of time on the bench.

    Would have bitten your hand off for a draw at half time. They were a decent side and created the better chances. Take the point and on to Zagreb.

    The earlier good results afforded us the chance to draw tonight and feel OK about it.

    Too many players not on top form tonight but that's just inconsistency that comes with the kind of players we are bringing in.

    Overall we are still in a very good position to progress. Anything away to Zagreb and a win against young boys and we will be home and dry before villa.

    Given a truly dreadful performance, that's a decent point.
    Midfield need to take a long hard look at themselves.
    Engels needs rested.

    Lets be honest a point is all we deserve out of that, although we did finish strong. Stunning save from Schmeichel at the start of the 2nd.

    Midfield let us down today, something that's arguably our strongest part of the team.
    But happy enough with that. Zagreb and Young Boys games now we need to 2 point. Cant see us * this up.

    Years gone by we would've been a few goals behind after a first half like that and tbf if they had a clinical finisher up front they'd have probably won the game. Take a point at this level when not at your best.

    Bernardo and Valle have to start in Croatia if fit.

    Got to be happy with the point, played well in patches against a well disciplined team. But even though we finished strong we were still lacking that killer touch in front of goal.
    So aye, a point apiece seems a fair result.

    Only 2 starters played well KS and Trusty the rest were poor to average.

    So much to gain with a Win here and the players shat it Id say.

    Disappointing but it isn't a loss

    Not many on their game tonight. Midfield were way of it. Engels really worryingly * once again. Draw is decent, considering the performance.

    Hatate nothing came off for him he was poor , but he was constantly on the ball and making runs showing for it and getting in to dangerous positions , he was abysmal in his final decision. Engels shat himself , didn't show for it and hid for 60 minutes.

    We lost every 50/50 or physical encounter in midfield and across front 3 - it's a really big problem.
    We seem scared of getting stuck in.

    Getting outplayed at home against Brugge isn’t good enough.

    Hopefully Rodgers didn’t get too ahead of himself after that last CL win.

    First half was as bad as we have played this season. A calamitous OG but to be fair CCV was the one player you could probably write it off for. Second half was better and there was a noticeable improvement when Taylor and Engels went off. Don't remember Schemichel really having much to do bar a great save at 47 minutes. Overall happy with a point. 8 points at this stage is a more than reasonable return.
