Same as Norwich
What is the game plan!?
Are we a pressing side or an on the counter attacking side or just keep the ball plan?
Gayle I ask you. What a mess this managers mind is

Just leaving myself and Frustration is the word
We weren’t bad we created chance after chance and put the ball in the bet 4 times which two were offside
We can’t defend set pieces is the issue ….the game plan is fine

Bit harsh. We did have a plan.
We were much better going forward than last two games. Never seen us so vulnerable to corners, set pieces.
If Ty was better at offside and Laurent wasn’t so soft, we’d have won that.
Totally agree about Gayle. Vidigal where that hell are you lad?!

If not Gayle then who, people were ranting to get Campbell off, it's either Wesley or Gayle. |

The players on the pitch have to take some individual responsibility, as you can’t allow a player to take a touch 8 yards out in the middle of the goal & still have nobody within 3 yards of him to attempt a block/tackle. Unfortunately we don’t have a proper defender in the squad. Yet to be convinced by either Rose or McNally. |

Why the hell he doesn’t just give Lowe the final few minutes instead of that Dud I’ll never know. |

What did we all expect. Major overhaul, mini injury crisis. This season always had the Boskamps about it anyway. There was enough tonight to suggest we’ll come good. It’ll just be too late for anything meaningful this season. Enjoy the ride!

Better going forward but awful at the back.
Rose and McNally looked as nervous as kittens.
Huddersfield looked like they could score from every attack.
Pearson played well but then did his usual stupid shit and now he's suspended.
Laurent far too casual. We need more drive and leadership from our captain.

That sub was just daft. Ty was a threat all night, a good option in the channel, he went off and we lost that. Bring Wes on and go long yes but Gayle up top on his own, just plain daft.
Gooch was great
Haksabanovic looked very good, Shaqiri-esque
Bae was much better today and put Laurent in with a great pass.
I thought Pearson was back to his best
However
Laurent was useless and lost the ball for their second
Burger was poor, very poor
Johnson shouldn't be playing LWB, play Junior.
Alex, you need to get your head sorted out and you need to spend hours on set piece defending or else we will be bottom half again.

Kept jumping in and trying to win the ball and got docked about 4 times. Just hold your ground and make the player play backwards |

You build a team from the back
It's quiet remarkable how a manager with Neil's experience has fails to do this following a window where we have signed 17 players

Just not convinced by either of them. Felt like we needed a big tough centre half during the summer window & we got a couple of softies. |

If not Gayle then who, people were ranting to get Campbell off, it's either Wesley or Gayle. If not Gayle then: * Wesley * Lowe * Leave Campbell on * Jojic playing as a false nine * Leris playing as a false fifteen * Pearson playing up top as a target man * Bonham leading the line as a nifty trequartista * Ole T Albrigsten taking time off from the police force to make his debut * The late great John Inman playing in the half-space and shouting "I'm free" all the time * A stillborn baby in a jar * The remains of a fox that has been hit by a fire engine * Diana Ross In that order. |

Plenty have been moaning about how shit Wesley is, same with wanting Campbell subbed, Lowe has done what to show he's good enough? I thought Campbell was fine today, some good runs and helped the team more than Wesley has in recent games, just needed to relax Infront of goal. |

What a mess this managers mind is Can’t we just be a win side. And not really think how win. Just want a win and believe in ourselves. There’s this thing now how football is a layer from the back, not saying it’s wrong , it’s just bad that moments in the game that’s the reset point rather than having that one moment instead of resetting a game layer can have the conviction to reset the flow of play further up the pitch. |

What has Gayle done to show he should be the first person off the bench in a Championship game? Even if Lowe came on and played as bad as Gayle did tonight (which is almost impossible imo), at least there may be some gain in the future for giving him the experience. What are we gaining by bringing Gayle on? Because we sure as fuck are not improving our chance of scoring a goal. |

Giving experience is fine but not when you're looking to win the game, you need someone with at least a little experience, Lowe doesn't seem a particularly great goal scorer for the youngsters unless I've missed something? |

Yes, I would've brought Wesley on. For all his limitations he appears to sometimes be aware of where the ball is. As for Lowe's scoring record, have you seen Gayle's goalscoring record? |

Got home to North Manchester literally 25 minutes after the game and I was parked in spitting distance of the ground.
Never known a ground with so little traffic after the game it was great…..

As for Lowe's scoring record, have you seen Gayle's goalscoring record? 50 goals in 107 champ games? He's still more likely than Lowe. |
