We've conceded one goal in four games.  Bruce is making us harder to beat. By far our biggest problem is lack of goals. Put the chances away and relieve the pressure on the defenders. It's not rocket surgery.

It's definitely not rocket surgery.
It's not brain science either.
Boom Boom!

My first away this season and deserved a draw. Core of the midfield is getting there with Jed and Lansbury playng well. Like the look of Bree too. Big disappointment for me was Adomah again, I just don't get what he does?
Was in the last seat to the right down the front so had the drum for 90 minutes. It did kill any atmosphere from our fans where I was. Good noise from 3 stands on their side tbf and notwithstanding the drum and megaphone.

We've spent £80m quid, the small squad excuses don't really wash.


Well, it does when you look at what we had on the bench last night!

I thought we played in parts last night. The midfield is coming together well and will click with some goals at some point soon. The goal conceded was very annoying and the only time we let them really have a sniff of a goal.
Kodjia?! - what to do? 83 or so minutes in, he gets a good break into the box and the makes a blatant dive, receiving a yellow card, deservedly. He could have passed to the left and given someone a clear opening to cross; he dives instead.
Someone needs to buy him a brain.

Question: why does Jedi get booked for his first (admittedly cynical) foul - like at Elland Road earlier in the season - when the two 'udders CB had both done the same earlier without punishment?

Someone needs to take all drummers at football grounds out and tie them to a post in the middle of the most unforgiving desert and leave them to drum ....

We lack a strong forward. Kodjia is skilful but sometimes you need a big unit to outmuscle one dimensional defenders. Obviously, Rudy Gestede was the exception to the rule.

Bring Benteke back, (if only it was possible) just dreaming

If only we took those chances in the first half.

In my rush last night I forgot to mention Bree. Very composed, not flustered and kept their winger quiet all night, could be good this lad.

I wasn't there last night but it sounded a familiar story of playing reasonably well in the first half but not getting the goal to enable us to go on and win the game. It was also a lazy goal to give away, which is something else we've done too many times this season.

So are you saying we should put the injured players on the bench?

We lost to a club that have clappers, a drum, a megaphone and play goal music.


A lot of teams did last season which is why Leicester City were champions.

This. Totally. And apply same thought to about 75% of our games this season.
