Goal or no goal, some awful defending leading to it. Gana, Branthwaite and Myko all getting sucked in, not winning the ball and leaving massive gaps. They all actively made a poor situation worse. Its a shame as we were playing well before that and in complete control.

Oh and @Shukes I haven't once criticised him for being attacking and direct, its just that if there is no end product, or a consistent enough end product, or worse still if he is killing off chances, we as a team are no better off. It's early days with him so that might well improve.

I completely agree about decision making, its one of the most important attributes in any sport (or indeed life!). That first half, Danjuma had simple decisions to make and he made the wrong ones. The 4 v 2 was the prime example because that was criminal, but he had another cut back on that he spurned, and he took a heavy touch on another occasion when we should have got a shot on goal. At least one of those should have ended up in the back of the net. We wont get those chances every week and if he has to mess 3 up a week to get something right, then we will struggle more than we are. When we play a decent team and he barely gets a touch and continues to waste brilliant attacking positions then see how you feel. Credit to him for going and going and I suspect the output will come at some stage but he is overcomplicating what should be simple decisions at that level of football, usually for his own glory too.

Really impressive start to the season from him.

For me he is our best midfielder. He still has loads to come and he still switches off a little but he has bags of talent.

Based on what I saw of the first half, my vote goes to Beto. He looks like the perfect player for our style of football and their defenders couldn't deal with him. Can't wait to see how he progresses!

Its not because he "hasn't scored" its because his decision making has stopped the team creating chances and scoring goals. Fair play he gets in the box and scores the tap in but we should have been ahead at half time and won the game. Attacking players that do well up until the final 3rd are largely useless. You need them to make the right decisions and show composure in the key moments. This is where attacking players win and lose games and IMO he lost us this game with his first half decision making. I haven't watched the second half so I don't know if he made up for it. McNeil is a far more clinical player and the sooner he is match fit the better for our chances of staying up.

Awful from Patterson and Tarkowski. Clowns.

Get McNeil on for Danjuma.

Onana's attempt to stop the cross for their goal is a bit lazy too.

He really is!

I'm not sure what our defenders were doing there. Can't let any player in this league get that time on the ball in the 18 yard box. Too easy.

Is Danjuma just a bit shit? Overcomplicating everything.

Poor from Young. Not sure what he was doing. Decent (but expected) save from Pickford.

Gana with one of those perfectly weighted 10 yard passes...

Danjuma has to pass that. Should be 2-0. You can miss chances when you are 4v2.

Should have been a pen before that as well IMO.

Get in!!

Tarkowski does brilliantly there.

On the bench today. Lets hope he can hit the ground running.

Strange bench!

I read that initially thinking " what is he going on about, they didnt have the internet in the thirties" and then it clicked It has been a long week!

He still does it though. Completely abandons the middle of the pitch to close down a player already marked by someone else and then they just play the ball around him.

The thing with Iwobi is that whilst he was one of our most creative players,his poor play also leads to some sloppy goals against. Its a bit two steps forward, one step back with him.
