The game wasn't lost tonight on the pitch, as many had flagged it was lost when we decided who would make the trip. Whilst we appear to have a very strong XI and 3-4 ample replacements we haven't got anywhere near the 2nd or 3rd team that the top 6 can boast.
I think long-term injuries to Boruc, Lovren or Shaw and we are deep in the brown stuff - but again nothing new.
If we had put out a full strength team tonight and lost against Hull on Saturday I can just imagine the meltdown on here.
