Haks deserves to start. As does Mmaee Strange how people see a game differently. I thought he was terrible in line with his performances in general since he’s been here. I thought he was ok but he's the epitome of a modern footballer - fine in the middle of the pitch but no impact at either end.

If you think we only attacked with just one player today then you need to open your eyes. Attacked with 1 player?? Have you read a different post and quoted mine by mistake? Can’t see how you get ‘attacked with one player’ from my post.. "Instead he went with one player up front" quote

Haks and Maee are better than what we currently have.
Thought we missed Thompson in midfield playing easy passes instead of Hollywood balls.
Baker was absolutely abysmal.
Ennis (might be harsh post) is shit and I don't even think he knows where to stand or occupy space as a striker. Maee within 5 minutes did more lay offs and link up play. I rate his attributes but that was woeful today.

he was atrocious. Can’t beat a man, is indecisive in his final ball. Not sure which one you’re on about. But it’s wrong about both either way. We were a miles better team with both on the pitch. They made a sub at left back, which made him a bit quieter in the game. Some lovely footy second half but sometimes your screaming for a player pu his laces through it or just square it. Then last five minutes was like we was happy for a draw and tried own the ball wherever it was without doing out with it, it didn’t work out ended up being proper nervous watching endless stream or corners. Thought first half they sussed us as being a bitpants defending the flanks and they manipulated it well left midfield not knowing what do to spread out me thoughts. Good point in end for me. This we should when them thing is erm not sure they could be saying exactly the same.

Massive chance missed to pull clear of the bottom 3 today, and I think it’ll become even more obvious in the next couple of weeks. Why not go with 2 strikers and take the game to them from the start?? Give the players a clear message of intent, at home, after a good away win, against a team that’s below us in the league. Instead he goes with 1 up front! Madness! The set up today would make more sense next weekend when we’re playing a team who will probably have more of the ball than us. We’re not setting up to dominate games, against teams we should be beating, and that may well cost us come the end of the season. If you think we only attacked with just one player today then you need to open your eyes. Today was a rare occasion where we repeatedly got numbers in their box, granted we didn't take advantage but we did attack in numbers.

Agree the quality of the central forwards being so poor we need 2 up there said the same for weeks it’s 2 from Campbell Mmaee and Ennis by the look albeit those last 10 would have suited Wesley

I don't think we were that bad today all told. They're scrapping for their lives and were better than I thought they'd be. We did play into their hands a lot though by going direct when we didn't need to. We were fashioning good chances with the ball on the grass. I actually think the subs curtailed us a bit bar the Haks one for Baker which helped drive us forward. Really don't understand taking Burger off late on, was he injured? Just handed them the impetus for the final 5-10 minutes. It happens nearly every game that he's taken off with 10 to go or so. Must not have the stamina or legs to do 90+ mins.

I thought today was OK.
Certainly a massive improvement on Norwich. As poor as we were first half, we could have at least gone in level had Baker's free kick crept in. But overall, agreed , first 45 wasn't great.
2nd half was a million times better. We should and could've scored 3 or 4. Once we started playing, we showed we were by far the better team.
Only gripe with the starting line up was Leris. I'd have started with Manhoef. The rest was fine in my eyes. We aren't exactly enamored with midfielders. I'm not exactly a massive fan of Laurent or Baker but when the alternative is Cundle, I'm not sure there's much to be gained by switching that 3 up.
Ennis isn't a great footballer but he is effective in leading the line, so I'm happy with him there, with Mmaee coming on 2nd half.
4 points from the 2 games is a very good return. Today wasn't great but the reaction from going a goal down was good to see.
Overall, not bad.

Just back and I have to say the manager got the front 3 totally wrong today from the start.Ennis was a dog chasing a balloon,Leris was an absolute embarrassment in his antics of trying to con the ref and Juhno was hardly in the game until he was moved 2nd half.Whether Maaee was meant to start I don’t know after his late arrival but we certainly looked better when he came on for sure Exactly how I saw it mate It defo looked like he picked the front 3 out of a hat
