    I'd have fancied us to score again in the Nou Camp if he'd stayed on. He is so valuable in his abillity to carry the ball up the park.

    It was fitting that he was captain. Nobody embodies the turnaround from the Mowbray era to beating Barcelona in the CL like he does.

    Clearly wasn't fit, was very frustrating from him. Barcelona were very cleerly handling his aerial presence, good shift though. Put your ankle on ice big man, there's bigger games for you yet :50:

    Sammi always has had good ability but lacked the confidence. Lennon deserves the praise for briging the confidence out in him. He done great again tonight, Keep it up big sexy.

    Thought it was one of his poorer games tonight if I'm being honest, he wasn't fully fit though, still worked his socks off. They dealt with him well aerially and we had so little of the ball that it was always going to be hard for him to make an impact

    It was obvious he wasn't match fit, but he didn't do a whole lot wrong. Came off at the right time, honoured the armband.

    Just seen Sammy's interview after the game.

    I'm spitballoing here cause im pished

    "It was a good result but we need to now focus on the SPL and St Johnstone, then we can concentrate on benficas and see what happens."

    Sammy, if you want to come to my house and * my wife, i will make you a cup of tea and share one of my buscuits with you.

    If you knew me you would know how big that is..... i dont share me busuits with nobody.

    Happily have him sitting on his * until Benfica. Needs to be wrapped in cotton wool for Champions League games.

    Feel sorry for him, struggling with injuries this season.

    Couldn't find any thread on him. Maybe I missed one right under my nose :52:

    The turnaround this guy has had is sensational. He was awful, to be fair, when played as a striker under Strachan. Lennon chose to play him predominantly as a left winger and he's had a huge turn around. Massive player for us in Europe now. Had a stromer of a game in the Nou Camp, was brilliant in Moscow and got full marks along with everyone else on Wednesday.

    Does anyone have any videos of Samaras' turn of pace when he knocks the ball by someone and beats them with ease using his pace down the line? He does it so often but can't find any videos of it. Cheers :50:

    Ooh Aah Samaras :shamrock:

    Didn't think he had a great game on Wednesday - but I account that on his injury.

    Definitely a great turnaround from Samaras - no doubt.

    Still think he gets a bit too sensationalized by some on here though.
