“We weren’t as good going forward” and “nowhere near as bad as people are making out” is hardly a rose tinted view. At no point did I use the word “good” or “we dominated” or “we deserved to win 5-0”
A draw probably would’ve been a fair result, and if not for a basic goalkeeping error that’s what we would’ve got. We put enough pressure on that we probably should have snuck an equaliser, but lacked a bit of quality (Krishna) on the day.
If thinking we could have snuck a draw is considered a rose tinted view, then I’d hate to think how miserable it’d be to not have the rose tinted glasses on!
