I was at that game - we actually played really well.

We lost 3-1 - remember Huckerby, Benarbia, Berkovic and Wright-Phillips tearing us apart. Best team I've ever seen at this level.

I think the reason why we played better football is partly because Mulryne could actually pass the ball, well. And we got away with having him in the side because Holt did the defensive work of two central midfielders.

It was nice to have a striker with a bit of skill in Marc Libbra, too.
