We've generally looked a shadow of ourselves since we came back from the outbreak.

Playing Traore in front of Elmo pretty much guaranteed Barnes a goal, he was already in double figures. Nakamba should definitely have started to actually put some pressure on their players, especially around the edge of our box.

If a simpleton like me can see that I'm struggling to see how Dean and Co couldn't.

Nothing more certain than Traore being subbed today.

Between 60th and 65th minute

I would bring Delilah on instead of Barkley.

Barnes goal was nothing to do with Traore, Elmo stood still watching the ball come back from Martinez whlst Barnes actually tried to get onto it, that's not tactical, it's a very avoidable individual error.

What the fuck was that on the edge of their box then with Mings and Barkley? Standing looking at each other like a pair of pricks

Astonished Smith hasn't changed it. Simply poor management.

It's becoming common for us to have no reaction or ideas to change a game.

Need changes for the 2nd half.

Massive shake up needed.

Horrible watch.

Embarrassing first half performance. Wrong team selection. Weak in midfield.

Nothing positive. Sadly.
