A pretty poor performance really, we didn't really create much of note and when we did everything was hit at the keeper.

2.55 xG is quite a lot, we just didn't finish well at all, and the ref disallowed a perfectly good goal.

Agreed about the ridiculous decision to disallow the goal, and I can see why we had nearly 3 xG but so many shots were straight at Butland which was frustrating.

Missed the second half

Martinez has put in 3 absolutely world class balls like that tonight.

He put some lovely set up balls in this season he very good at it, shame he has a mare at the back at times.

And the funny thing is that xG doesn't include either goal we scored. So really it could have been four or more. We're just not taking our chances. Amad missed a good one and Maguire and Ugarte should both have scored with headers.
