Feels like only a matter of time before they score.

Zero reaction from the manager as usual

You would never know this was the same game from the first half. It’s astonishing how inept we’ve looked. Thank fuck for Mings again

Great first half but the majority of teams would have burries us by now this half.

Doug Luiz snatching possession a few times, but Nakamba dwelling on/losing the ball too often for my liking. Sub needed now Dean

They shouldn't be getting through the back 5 so easily.

Hoping we’ve seen off their huff and puff approach for the first half of the 2nd half.

Time for smith to change things up. Go to a back 4

Rather personnel than system

Trying to sit back, contain them and hit them on the break. Makes sense to close the game out but we never look too comfortable when we try this.
