Top six my arse, our defending at times apart from Souttar is abysmal, can’t hang on to a lead, can’t increase a lead

The obsession with Sawyers is costing us. It’s like Mikel last year. It’s pathetic.

I think Denis’ comments during the second half are very revealing.
He is as loyal as they come and very close to the Board.
He sounded frustrated.

It's a top 6 squad, it has to be.
There can't be many stronger in the league. That said it was all looking so good until 3 games ago, stay patient, it's a long old season.

They were absolutely shite and we lost!
Desperate stuff, couldn’t make the most basic of passes
Sawyers is an excellent player but he’s a liability for us.
What the hell was Wilmot at today!

What a week it's been. Dreadful. Jones above us, Rowett turns us over and is just behind us.

MON tactics are questionable and he doesn’t seem to have the ability to change. It worked very well first half but we only managed one goal again so they change their tactics second half and we don’t react

We should be with the squad we have.
The manager has done a remarkable job sorting out the mess the last couple of managers left behind. He’s tactically inept though and and is in danger of throwing away what should be a very promising season.

We are joint 5th with a good run to come. Keep the faith.

We have the players for top 6 100%.
The tactics and team selections are the factors holding us back.

We're capable of a top 8 finish with this squad.
The midfield problem and poor game management is what's cost us of late.

As I’ve said in the match thread that midfield together is pathetic.
You CANNOT play in this division without a midfield with any bite in it.
Defensively that was shocking- just such simple goals.
And up front it is evident that Surridge is just wank.
No messing around now- play Fletcher and Campbell.
In terms of midfield- Thompson should start as at least he’ll Try and tackle / block.
Poor recruiting agaa again I’m afraid and we never bought in what we needed- a proper DM.

We left the same player unmarked in our 6 yard box with Bursik glued down. Crazy poor defending again. Nearly all the goals we have conceded this season have been gifts.

Its easy to overreact to a run of 3 straight defeats, but with the exception of the season up until the West Brom game, 2021 has been poor. The second half of last season was terrible and whilst injuries were a factor, our form was alarming. I dont believe our summer recruitment has made us play-off contenders and so I'm not surprised the league table is filtering out teams like us from the top teams. Before this run, we were in a false position in my view. We are mid-table, 9th to 15th depending on injuries.

Impossible to win games regularly with brown, Chester and Tymon starting regularly. You could add Allen to that as well.

Was Doughty injured/ill today, if not, why on earth was Ince in the bench before him???

The obsession with Sawyers is costing us. It’s like Mikel last year. It’s pathetic. Scored a lovely goal today but I agree, his tracking back last weekend made me believe there’s no place for him in the team. I was hoping the goal would be a turning point but his 2nd half today was just awful. Caught in possession too many times. His play and demeanour just comes across as arrogance at times, never looking worried or urgent in possession despite playing against a team that will press and harass you like millwall did. The arrogance is that he’s not good enough to be so relaxed under such conditions and he gets caught out too much. Similar to Ryan Woods in some ways. There’s a few players in the world who are good enough to have that aura and to pull it off, and they don’t play in fucking 2nd divisions.

Worryingly though, it's what the manager wanted.
