Lambert's substitutions

Didn't work very well, did they?

Taking Elliott off removed our main attacking outlet and suddenly the ball just kept hurtling back at us

Though we'd started to stand off them and invite them at us before the substitutions were made

For 80% of that match we looked godlike, we were taking the piss out of them. I couldn't believe we looked that good against a side with some really quite big names in, we just looked amazing

Then suddenly we let it slide
