Calm down! Sober Reflection In The Fullness Of Time 11:26 - Jan 29 with 2210 viewsRoyboy48

Not often you can reference both the late Michael Winner and even later Sir Humphrey in the same review but it works here

After Sober Reflection In The Fullness Of Time, Saturday's debacle can be seen to be entirely predictable

Fringe players
Not match sharp
No team acquaintanceship with each other (is there such a word?)
No leadership on the field
No incentive from Harry - even match magazine FA Cup comments were lukewarm
No motivation or desire - they knew they wouldn't be back tonight
Utterly complacent - especially after netting within 2 minutes
Bad luck with first goal. "One of those days" as Smithy remarked several times in the first half as MK repeatedly cleared their panic lines

MK suffered from none of the above

Other posters have forensicly examined individual performance and - Park and Ferdinand aside - found difficulty in condemning individual performances outright

Easy to predict 9 or 10 changes tonight, but, more interestingly, who will fill the bench? Those least tainted by Saturday's debacle...

Bench prediction: Green, Ben Haim, Traore, Mackie, Bothroyd. Plus Young and Ephraim - who were relieved not to have been involved on Saturday.

Calm down! Until maybe 21.45hrs...
