Zero shots on target that half. Boooooooooooooo


Urns

I'm counting one, as had Watkins scored it would've been VARed into existence.

Really annoying. One of those where we're easily the better team and should be winning comfortably, but our own slackness had been our undoing.

They were doing nothing until we got sloppy. Very frustrating.

Pity that, we were in complete control until Rogers sloppy play invited them back into it. Now we have a game on. Watkins should have scored. I thought Tielemans and Onana were looking very good in midfield until they scored.

Sloppy first 15 then grabbed the game before the sloppiness returned.

Watkins very unlucky with that Sells save.

Not bad but that creeping feeling that we will shoot ourselves in the foot at any moment lingers.

We’re the better side. It’s our carelessness on the ball that has stopped us from being ahead. That and not taking a shot. That’s been an issue all season.

Could've been 2/3 up and in cruise control. Then decide to start dribbling and attempting 1-2's just outside our own penalty area.

Chaotic stuff.

Nicely set up from here for beanpole Wood to come on and do the usual against us second half.

Watkins missing his 1 on 1 as fully expected (I genuinely expect him to miss those ones) will probably be the difference between a deserved comfortable win and an edgy one (hopefully) or a draw.

It's pretty much as expected tbh. A tight game of football away to a decent and motivated side which could go either way. As most are. Rogers is flickering, but was poor before the goal. Watkins did okay with the chance considering he didn't have much room to play in.

Barkley and Tielemans are a bit quiet, which is a shame as I think they can be the difference if we get them on the ball. Bit congested by the look of things. Probs bring on Maatsen and try to use both full backs.

Shit, yes, it's set up for the Kiwi Carthorse to come on and grab a winner.

Watkins scores and that is the game.
Rogers looks knackered and was so sloppy for their goal, they were not in it until then.

Bizot playing as well. Nothing is more certain.
