    I wouldn't say it is that jammy, their press put us under pressure and forced us into a series of dodgy passes that led to a mistake. I feel like any team of a similar quality to us that does their homework will figure out that they can force a mistake out of our defence

    Zagreb lost today to Hajduk Split. Think the game against them is flip of a coin to be honest, but we certainly shouldn’t be going them with any fear.

    Need 4 out of 9 to get play offs but possibly 9 out of 9 might get straight in to Last 16

    I think 2 out of 9 should be enough to seal a playoff spot.
    6 out of the next 6 is not beyond the realm of possibility.
    How great would it be going into the Villa game knowing that a win could get us into the top 8?!

    CCV is so rock solid though, that's a once in a season mindfart from him. Definitely a little bit jammy

    Pity Villa is at the end of January, now would be a great time to have them, would really fancy our chances, Brendan has a very good overall record at Villa Park btw

    Gotta hope they don't get their act back together by the end of Jan

    Being fair it also seems to be a good time to be playing Dinamo Zagreb as they appear to be struggling too. We will obviously have to turn up and play more like Leipzig than we did against Brugge but it is a realistic chance of getting a result if we can.

    If we can get that what a start to the season it will have been going into a cup final.
