We were awful, again.
The ability of opposition to play straight onto our defence is alarming. It's not even clever balls it's just straight passes through to them because we offer too much space.
I'm glad we got the win but things need to change. We need to be able to change systems when it's not working.

We'd need another system to choose from, firstly.The ability of opposition to play straight onto our defence is alarming. It's not even clever balls it's just straight passes through to them because we offer too much space.

We've got to find away to shore up the midfield. If Bruno gets booked, we're fooked.
Looking back, Blackburn played well above their station and we were slack at the back.
Dubrovka was our MOTM, would hate to see Pope take his place just because's #1. Good performances from Bruno & Gordon. Willock & Barnes need time, the rest of the team had some great moments but were regularly kept in check. We're just not playing as a team like we were 12 months ago. Longstaff just seems to wander about watching a lot of the time. Our passing and crosses were wayward, slack, sloppy at times. Trippier was all over the pitch; trying too hard or something in the back of his mind distracting him. Was pleased when Eddie took him off.

He seems to have regressed to the Bruce era. Caught on the ball and shocking passing. fathomfive said:

He looks shell shocked a lot of the time. I think Anderson should get some minutes in his place.
If the team is to progress we need better second choice replacements as both do not cut it.

I used slightly different words last night.
