  Brilliant result tonight ! Looking at the teams left in the competition, i would say chelsea would be the only team better than the team weve knocked out tonight. Heres my look on some performances

  Santon – Didnt seem to track back as quick as he should have been, and final product was poor, Really got to question those who see him as a RW, as his best quality is getting up and down that wing all game, Put him in an attacking role and we will see a replica of guti with better tackling
  Taylor – MOM for me, one part of the game summed his performance up, anyone notice when he made a tackle and whilst being floored, put his head into the ball as eto went to kick it , Bleeds black and white!

  Mbiwa – Impressive for most of the game but needs to cut out his lapses in concentration, its not uncommon either according to Montpelier fans
  Haidara – Very dependent on his left foot, which is probably why he didnt shine more tonight as he did in the first leg, once hiddink had sussed him.
  tiote – Dont feel he got enough praise for some of his long balls, better than cabaye at times!
  Cisse – Think were starting to see the cisse of old, one chance one goal, And his run for the goal should have been recognised. The celebration showed alot of passion, would you have seen that in demba at anypoint in his toon career ?
