Suggy33 Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 I'd predict: Ryzhikov; Kuzmin, Sharonov, Marcano, Ansaldi; Orbaiz, Natcho, Gokdeniz, Kasaev, Eremenko; Rondon. Actual Rubin team: Ryzhikov, Kuzmin, Navas, Marcano, Ansaldi; Orbaiz, Natcho, Eremenko, Karadeniz, Kasaev; Rondón. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

football_master_94 Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Is there any explanation as to why they got a pen? Worst dive I've seen in a while and the ref absolutely bought it ffs Routine stuff on the whole, shame that the players were - understandably - in a cruise control mindset after Moses scored and looked like just going through the motions really (similar to how Real got caught out against Gala).

ReggaeBwoy Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Basel are a very underrated team but out of all the teams left, I want them as I believe that is an easier route to the final although it will not be easy, however I would be more confident of getting to the final playing them.

ReggaeBwoy Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 If only we could of played Spurs this weekend, I am 100% sure we would have beaten them. If we lose to City I will have so much regrets, so we must win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcoleman1 Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Very weird game and it did really feel like we were just playing the game to get it over with. Did anyone else see this supposed argument between Luiz and Lampard? Big week for us now with City Sunday, Fulham away Wednesday and then Liverpool away on Sunday.

Administrators Philip Rolfe Posted April 12, 2013 Author Administrators Share Posted April 12, 2013 Is there any explanation as to why they got a pen?

Administrators Philip Rolfe Posted April 12, 2013 Author Administrators Share Posted April 12, 2013 I'm always interested by other perspectives on Loftus-Cheek. I think he's got the goods to be so good and he ALWAYS catches the eye but I think maybe because I've seen so much of him and know how he can influence games that I'm left wanting more most of the time. Not tonight though, he was good. Baker excellent as always. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mag man Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Very impressive at times tonight. I felt there were periods where we controlled possession but struggled to create in the final third. I like RLC a lot, feel he can take control of games and dictate play. Might have to try and get down to the bridge for the return leg. It was good to see youth football on itv.

tcoleman1 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Shame Norwich couldn't hang on but tbf Arsenal were very lucky to win from what read on the internet/Arsenal forum. Penalty was from a corner that should never have been given as well. That makes the Fulham away in midweek even more important. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
