Frustrating, but they were always going to play like this.  Need McGinn further forward as he's doing a lot of his good work too deep at the moment.

Just need to be patient and I think the chances will come.

Well that was crap. Cash is very poor and final ball isn't good enough either.

Ref letting them away with kicking us at every opportunity too.

Too predictable.  Need another dimension.

Pretty much like a re-run of the Brentford match except we're not losing at HT. As expected tbh.

Bench looks more and more shit as the injuries pile up.



In no way is it the same game, Brentford were way more of a threat at this point.

Rapidly losing patience with Diaby. No matter the opposition or tactics he’s done knack all for weeks.

I’m normally tearing out what’s left of my hair when we take needless speculative potshots. We’re going to need them tonight. And of course we’ve taken none.

Harsh crowd on here tonight! We need to lift the tempo. Our left flank has been very average and I really don't like McGinn left of Luiz in that two. Moreno will come on very shortly I think. Bailey and Diaby getting in each other's way a bit at times too. Their LB is dreadful and we have had some joy there.

Sharpen up the passing, better movement, up the damn tempo.

100%. The shove on Watkins was the definition of “clear and obvious error.”

They've had 0 shots, 0 corners, have completed just 7 passes in the final third and touched the ball 3 times in our box. Sums up the intent we're up against.

A bit like the Brentford game and som of the European games where the opposition park the bus and we dont have players and / or systems to play through them.
