We need more break aways like that one a few minutes ago to relieve the pressure.  Even that or we need to play a bit of keep ball to deflect things.  Think Grealish and maybe Gabby should get involved second half.  Wonder if Ross might be worth a shot since Kodja is having one of his poorer games.

Pretty poor. Still lack of confidence in some of them

Lack of ability more than confidence I'm afraid. Definitely need changes at the break, the two in with Jedinak have been predictably anonymous and Gestede offers nothing

Mr. Bruce said the basis of success in this division was industry and he's not wrong.

We seem to be creating better openings.

At least that was a bit better.

They missed the two best chances in the game, one a sitter really

We are having joy pressing them alright, keep forcing turnovers in their half but don't have the quality on the pitch to take advantage

A mistake will win this. They look as error prone as we do.

Indeed though I doubt with all his promotions he's never had such an embarrassment of riches.

Grealish for Gestede would be my call, Kodjia in the middle. Need a spark

We certainly need something up front. Oh and Happy Birthday, TV.

Westwood's done reasonably OK, TBF. More combative than cauliflower this evening.  But you know you won't be getting defence splitting passes from him. Splitting the opposition's defence, at least.

We're easily better than them but we've created precious little. Maybe a change up front second half to inject a bit of pace, and they're there for the taking.

Excellent first half. Organised and professional all through the team.
