Not since Shaun Moloney was here have I seen a player look so unhappy as Zog does.

[pauliewalnuts]

Zog currently the weak link.

Just runs into players all the time.

nzog always gets tackled by another player -  himself

[Tuscans]

Zog currently the weak link.

No way

We're alternating in attack and midfield quite well. Hopefully that will tire them out a fair bit.

If we can keep our shape at the back and stop giving it away in a silly manner, you'd have to think we've got enough to make some more good chances and get the win

[Matt Collins]

The weak link is that the midfield three are too samey for a game like this

Not that we had too much choice given injuries

[pauliewalnuts]

I can't help thinking we'd be a much better team if we had some movement off the ball.

So often a player will find himself in a position to do something with the ball, but nobody moves into, or creates, space for him.

Feels like we've been saying this for the best part of a decade.

better move

[Matt Collins]

Nice move that. Benteke is showing and it's rare I say this but i think we could hit him a bit earlier

I'm not there today but bloke who sits next to me constantly shouts ' movement off the ball' !

What they all like to pass it sideways and no player actually runs forward with any real conviction? And we don't have a Platt/Taylor type player who attacks the box at all or with any purpose? Yep. Noted and no doubt ignored by the manager.

[Matt Collins]

Nice to see Westwood playing better after a ropey spell.

[Hampshire Villa]

Now 71% possession ?

[Tuscans]

Nice dive Jores
