For the first time in a long time I actually thought we defended well yesterday.

And let them have 20+ shots. It was better though, but still the midfield is the problem.

It was better though, but still the midfield is the problem.I’ve seen you make this comment a few times Risso, on the flip side how many times did Nyland have to make a save, once? Twice? I don’t think conceding that many shots is the problem you’re making it out to be.
I know we're short on squad depth, but bringing like-for-like subs on does my head in. Trez is not an option, quality-wise, and Davis and Samatta would have been definitely worth a shout for the final 15 minutes.This was the disappointment me me also. We saw the negative impact of taking Samatta off against Spurs the other week but at least then maybe he was thinking about the draw. This was a game we needed to win so asking any player to keep a top defence occupied with no time to play in is risky. Why not go on the offensive?
Wonder if smiths tempted to make a move for Sturridge to end of season now he has terminated his contract
