He really needs to sort out what they're supposed to be doing on the left and I'd be tempted to replace Gregory with Campbell.

Any criticism of Thompson is a criticism of O'Neill. You must know that. He signed him, trained him, and picked him. But you're not allowed to criticise MON on the Oatcake.

Afobe gets into good positions but the quality of the service is horrendous.
Powell looks like he's been on a bender, or playstation all night
McClean has been poor.
Gregory looks like he's training for a Sunday League game
Clucas mostly anonymous
Thompson......why?
Defence ...dodgy!

Based on the team selection that was predictably very poor.
Why is Smith playing wing back when he isn't a ball carrier/barely has any technical ability? And that's to say nothing of the other side.
Gregory and indi for fox and ince? Shame we can't have 5 subs

It’s just odd that it’s all you seem to do, considering the minor miracle he performed last season in turning us from bottom of the league to a team with points per game of a playoff team.

i don’t think it was anywhere near that to be fair, he’s still wank though, Sorensen, Oakley-Booth, Cousins, Allen and Mikel are all miles better

At least its still nil-nil lads.
Hopefully sort it out second half, but a midfield of Clucas and Thompson was always going to be anonymous.

MIDFIELD....can we have one please? We do have midfield players - quite a few !! In fact on paper it should be our strength. It’s just frustrating that we by-pass it most of the time and hoof it. I thought it was a survival tactic last season but I am worried it’s how the manager wants to play. I hope not.

I’m not watching but this midfield was never going to function. It needs Cousins and that’s about as damning as I can be about it. Oh don't! It needs Mikel and that's a beautiful promise. Cousins changed the results in lockdown. And yes Mikel will do the same but I was just emphasising how bad Thompson actually is .
