How did Iversen and Wilmot manage to let that header in? So poor.

The frustration is how slow we started. They were bang under pressure from all angles and yet again, the party bus has rolled into town and given them a free ride.

Comments here that we are 'unlucky' etc Sunderland are fucking garbage, scored an embarrasingly shite goal against our wank defence We have been utter shite, csnt pass wind, everything is 5 yards short underhit, or woefully directed, and despite that missed 3 clear chances Its a turd of a game, really really awful, between 2 wank sides. Be amazed if we score and it doesnt end 1-0. To be fair to them I think it’s very windy.

How are we playing? Better side but shitter in either box? Usual Stoke, hit and miss!!! Midfield to the front doesn't look too bad in the build up play when on the attack, albeit us suffering with the usual goal shyness in front of goal!!! Midfield to the back looks as dodgy as ever!!!

We should have been out of sight before the goal, how we haven't scored is beyond me, we do have that charity feel about us, not sure we have enough physicality in the team, Thompson looks a bit limited today I am afraid. Still hopeful though..

I like the team that’s been set up to be honest. I think there are obvious deficiencies. We are playing two midfielders in defence and they have been ran around a lot. Going forwards, I think that the flanks have looked good. Junior will improve this side. A similar version of him at left back next season will be a big game-changer. Burger hasn’t been at the races. Campbell has done well. Leris and Junho should both be in the booking for being cheating bastards. And their wide man, 3 clear dives. They've looked for Clark every time down that dude and we've doing nothing to cut out their one tactic Yeah, absolutely. They’ve dived a few times. All of them should be punished. If the ref had booked the first player for it early on in the game, it wouldn’t be happening as often. I’d like to see Leris toughen up a bit. He seems to be reasonably aggressive and if he can start riding a challenge, I think he has the stature to hurt defences. Marking out Clarke is hard. Most teams have failed to do it all season. That’s why he’s close to 1 in 2 in the league.

Only 7 teams have conceded less than us but only 4 have scored less than us.
The stats show that the defence needs to be perfect every game because if we concede we pretty much never come back and win.
This puts huge pressure on the defence and any slight mistake is amplified because how poor we are up front.
Our top scorer Vidigal is 49th.

Yeah both height and stature. Only burger and Rose with any kind of physicality and rose isn’t exactly agressive Avoidable In a extremely naive selection. We have to understand we are in real peril amd adjust our approach accordingly it's naive at the minute. First hope is Cameroon lose tonight as we need junior Thomson laurent Baker Gooch wilmot stevens campbell possibly Pearson in a double.pivot as starters to survive this season Our best 11 to survive is Keeper Junior wilmot Rose Stevens Laurenr Baker Burger Thompson or.gooch Campbell mmaee So…just defend and hope for 0-0 then? 😂

Until we get a proper back 4, this will continue to happen time and time again.
How many of the starting 4 defenders today are really upto a decent standard? Gooch and Thompson are decent utility players, but neither are quality fullbacks. Rose & Wilmott just look to have an error in them every time the ball goes near them.
Saying that I think we’ve been ok as an attack, just not had the luck in front of goal.
I can see us getting something from the game.

But we are ahead in every stat. Still losing if course but that makes a change at least. I think we will score if we keep creating You sound like Nathan Jones. In the words of Miley Cyrus, it's the climb

Be amazed if we score and it doesnt end 1-0. We’ve shown some promise going forward, under AN we wouldn’t be making those chances for us to miss. Put one or two of those away and it looks very different, either side could have gone in 2 goals to the good at HT with the chances at both ends. I don’t consider us unlucky, but we haven’t been nearly as bad as you make it. We are still well in this game.

Yet only 4 teams have scored less, The defence isn’t perfect but it’s not a big a problem as people make out, the fact we create many chances and hardly ever score is our downfall.

Their only threat Yeah, I’m not really sure of how I would change it while keeping the formation the same. If Leris drops back further, we’ll really struggle going forwards. They charge forwards in numbers on the counter. Clarke is just the best option (always). None of this would matter of course if we just finally started taking our chances. With SS, we are now at least making multiple chances a game but we are just freezing up in front of goal too much.

It’s a worry.
Poor at the back and just not clinical at all up front.
Very concerning.
