I wouldn't slaughter Nelson for tonight. Get him against a packed Brexit defence camped 10 yards from their keeper and he'll force his way through them. Tonight, against a high disciplined, technical team who could keep the ball was a different matter. These boys proved they were no mugs. With it a home game and Palace at home next the thinking should have been full team and put these boys to bed within 60 minutes and then rest players. A lunatic line up cost us here. Why was vieira starting? he had his chance in the first leg, back at his home country. He didn't do anything. It worked out well enough though with Odin sick for that game anyway. He got rested. to not start him here was madness.
