My view on penalty shoot- outs has always been if you can't win in normal time you don't deserve it and if you win on penalties, you've got away with it.
When I saw the line up, I feared the worst.
Defence was okay, midfield okay, however, the forward line was absolutely toothless.
Tom, you are entitled to your opinion about Neto but I thought he was very poor, I just don't understand what some of you see in him.
How on earth does Gusto start ahead of Palestra? I am also amazed that Estavou didn't get at least 45 minutes. Some of Alonso's ions are beginning to worry me.

I am also v worried about Estevao not being played or getting a derisory few minutes right at the end of a game when played at all. Are the club still managing the hamstromg injury he seemed to have recovered from? Is he leaving in January ( please not)? Or is it that they cannot see where he fits in right now but may unleas him at some stage with formation change perhaps?
Am also worried by apparent lack of sufficient striker quality as back up to Pedro and way that Rogers and Palmer can drift in and out of games and do little to establish controlled possession.
Then there is the matter of who can really. martial. our defense.
But then I am often a worrier!

Jimbo, you are also entitled to your opinion and we know you have never been a fan of Neto.
So far this season my POS are, 1) Pedro 2) Josh 3) Neto.
