Lose to Norwich on Monday, and he has to go. Biggest wage bill, best squad, well clear of the chasing pack. Now likely to be third with 8 games to play. Never starts Coady despite defensive issues. Never makes substitutions to change the game. Never has a plan b. Can't motivate players when things are going badly.

Shite. Can't see us finishing above Leeds or Ipswich now. They'll be 1 and 2 today and never look back

Playoffs it is. Just getting worse as the season goes on.

I think 6 wins out of 9 will be enough for top 2 and take us to 100 points. Ipswich would need to win 7, and still need 2 draws to guarantee finishing above us. The championship is a crazy league but I don't see three teams hitting the 100 points mark. Add in Ndidi and Ricardo coming back, and we will be fine.

If we go up and get a points deduction and need to sell our best players, it's likely we'd come straight back down again. So I'd sell them all take the money from the sales and the premier league, then play the kids. Have a season just making profit and also making a mockery of the premier league, which would devalue the league as well. Then we'd be back in the championship with money to spend and a year with no losses. I'd also sack anyone involved in us getting into this mess.

A striker who has a presence in the box so when teams do force us wide, we have someone who might convert a cross. All our current strikers are too similar and don't lead to a change in approach. I'm not talking about someone to lump it up to, but someone who can be involved in the build-up and win a header now and again.

Totally agree. I worry they spend too long on the tactical approach to the game, but miss the mental side of the game. We never seem to get angry or aggressive. Just play our football and hope it works.

Persisting with an inverted full back moving into the centre of the field when they have parked the bus and crowded that area is inexcusable. It was obviously not working and our wingers were isolated. Why not try a conventional full back for 15 minutes to stretch them more and give them something else to think about. I understand the principle of the inverted full back to give an overload in the middle, but when a team sits so deep and fills the centre of the pitch with players you don't get the overload. There was so much space in our right back area in the second half, it was crying for someone to move out there to stretch their midfield and offer an overlap for Fatawu.

Predictable and stodgy. Middlesbrough and now QPR have shown how to play against us. Should have scored two against Middlesbrough but today other than the dace before the goal did their keeper have to make a save? After seeing the Leeds result the players should have been well up for this, but the low risk playing through the middle football sucked the life out of the team. Absolutely appalling. 3 defeats, 7 conceded, lead dwindling. Hopefully playing away from home for the rest of the month might be a blessing in disguise!

Fair enough if you think losing at home to a mid table side is better than losing away to second who are the form team.

I'm still more annoyed by the Middlesbrough result

We should have won what is considered the hardest fixture in the league, especially with the form they have been in. But we have lost two in a row before and bounced back. There are still 12 games left and if we win 8 out of 12, we'll hit 102 points. We've seen Ipswich goon a poor run, Southampton lose 2 recently, and I'm sure Leeds will drop points too. If we win 8, they all have to win 10 out of 12 to catch us, and I can't see all 2 doing that. We've been so much better than anyone else this season to build the cushion to take a couple of defeats. We'd have all taken 6 clear with 12 to go. We have a couple of tricky away games in March, but our last 7 all very winnable games. Don't panic!

Thought we'd just turn up and win. They had a plan and executed it well. Too many sloppy passes, not aggressive or ruthless enough.

If this happens along, with the horrendous decisions made by the club over the past two years, means we will be in championship for a fair few years to come. It'll have a negative impact on the squad, give other teams chasing us a lift and demoralise the fan base. It's starting to feel like the people in charge are no longer capable of doing the job.

So frustrating. Should have put that game to bed but allowed them to gain confidence. You can't sit on a one goal lead in the championship, it's too unpredictable.

Not a straight red. But if you're giving the ref a chance to give a red, it your own fault. Just so unnecessary after taking the lead.

Loan until the end of the season. If he's any good, we can sign him when his contract expires. Although it's not a particularly overwhelming signing.

A pint away from home against our closest rivals. Frustrating in the way it happened, but it's a point closer to our target and slows a rival down.

We need 14 wins from the next 23 games to hit 100 points. Even if we lose tonight, we're still 3 points clear and can easily win 14 out of the next 22. The pressure is all on them to keep ahead of the chasing pack.

They'll do a job on us like they did with Ipswich

We just don't attack enough. Really poor against the worst team in the league. With the quality we have, we should have destroyed them

4 points out of the last 12.

Complaicant and over confident.

I don't find our style of play defensive, but we do defend by keeping possession. I just think he needs a more attacking/creative number 8. Most of the time our lineup only includes 3 "attacking" players in the striker and two wingers. KDH and Ndidi have good engines and come up with the odd goal or assist, but having an effective attacking 8 would give us more sustained penetration. I think Casadei was brought in to do that, but he's not really clicked yet. Maybe Praet would offer a more forward thinking 8, but that's yet to be seen.

For most teams we play setting up with only 3 forward players will be enough, but against teams like last night, especially at home we need to attack more. Leeds setup with 2 wingers and 2 strikers away from home, we only had 1 striker and 2 wingers. If you neutralise out number 8s, then we're pretty easy to defend against
