I'm with Terry on this one, you have to give Becchio credit for making Somma's chance. Great finish though and for the most part I agree we'd probably have more points now if Becchio was the fella coming off the bench with 10 mins to go rather than Somma.
Rich would you start Somma on his own in a 4-5-1? Or do you sacrifice Kilkenny/Johnson and play him 4-4-2 alongside, presumably, Paynter? Feel sorry for McCormack and Paynter myself. Really worried about Leicester reeling us in.
