    It was awful, the more I see it the worse it looks. Feel for the lad because he and all the other were tremendous today.

    It was bad. Put it about five yards wide, but don’t forget he provided the assist for the goal vs Bolton, without which we might not have been there today

    It was bad not to hit the target but it wasn't an absolute golden sitter. It looked like he changed his mind at the last minute from putting it across the keeper to going near post and miscued it.

    I'll him a pass for it because he was clearly knackered by that point and probably used the last of his engine to get in that position.

    I thought Thomas should have been more direct and had a go himself

    It was an awful miss but that lad has been exceptional this season including today. He's a very, very good player and even the best are allowed a mistake now and again.

    Odejayi is now off the hook. In years to come we will now reminisce about '"that Connell miss at Wembley".

    Bad miss but we were overpassing as well - should have had an attempt before that

    I'd take Connell's Miss over Bannon's Mrs any day.

    Soz, long day.

    It was worse than Odejayi’s. It was a golden chance. Not gonna complain though, because he was otherwise faultless today. Way better than Bannan. And Thomas should have shot earlier. I don’t think he trusted his right foot. What a great run from Kitching to set it all up though. Who else has a centre half that bombs forward like this?

    He’s been immense all season so hard to pull him up.

    But, at the very least, should be hitting the target there.

    It was stonking great sitter. Made Odejayi's look like a tap in. But you can't criticise when he's played that well through the match.

    I heard quite a few people say Thomas should have a go, but surely the fact he's set Luca up for a much better chance makes it a good decision?

    It cost us. Was speaking to some Wednesday fans outside the ground. They asked who our best player is and I told then Luca. Well he just didn't turn up today.
