Yes, if we’d offered some threat on the break

But we didn’t, so all the good defending was for nothing because we weren’t able to use the ball when we got it.

If we did a quit, save and reload, it would take a lot of goes for us to come out on top. They were streets ahead, it was like Man City playing forest, or something.

Kane is a great player, but that system isn’t for him. Bellingham looked lost in it too. We don’t have the luxury of being able to waste players of that ability.

It wasn’t awful, we’ve played much worse in this tournament. But we were miles off them.

The analogies to the NCFC Wagner side are all very fair. Wagner did a decent job, but we would never win the playoffs / auto playing his style. So what’s the point?

Time to move on. Thanks Gareth, you did a million times better than I thought possible.
