Dealer performance, this squad isn’t PL level and won’t gain many points without major surgery 

Give Rudders the Jan window and he'll make the squad worse

[Tazfox]

The fact Mavididi has seen a full 90 there proves how lacking this squad is. Dross performance.

Or at least fire one into space  

[The Quick Brown Fox]

If RVN continues to pick the teams he does and making subs when he does, I don't see him lasting the season. 

[Kp1984]

If you asked me now if we are going down I’m 80% sure we are 

[FoxesBraun]

Never trust a man with two first names.

[coolhandfox]

We aren't going to survive with these fullbacks and wingers and a 38 year old who can't run as our vest CF.

It's not the first time Justin has f***ed up this season ,now we have lost this .

He’s ****ing shit , a player cannot do this every week without repercussions, drop him ( I mean drop him literally with a left hook ) willy puller , he’ll relegate us and get a new contract 

 

unexceptable 

[Nuge]

Think it’s time for a few years in the championship and a bit of a reset. We’ve had a decent 10 years. Back to normal service for us I think.

JJ’s mistake all stems from this thing in modern football where it’s acceptable to take needless risks to pass it out in that situation. Surely if you hoof it and give the ball away it is preferable to passing it out from the back and giving the ball away in a far more dangerous position?

Bang on post. Surely better to play the percentages in situations like this

Forward for a full back because we're chasing a point 

I understand the concept, but at 90 minutes? There's not enough time for Reid to have made an impact.

[JimmyC74]

Without major surgery to first XI seems inevitable we are down with these players.

 

individual errors, lack of organisation and no real confidence.

Done well or not doesn’t matter it’s points that matter I couldn’t give a sh!t if we’re diabolical if we manage to get points it’s another game another defeat

I agree, but we're playing to our full capability. Apart from an individual error, we get a point away at Villa, and that's decent.

Rubbish, that is such an easy cop out - it happened because he was being a thick see-you-next-tuesday -  that is not a tactic, its a mental frailty

 

It has nothing to do with passing out from the back, he had ample chance to clear it short or long, he just did some weird brain fart and attempted neither.

We lose football matches the EXACT same way, week in, week out. 
 

Ruud highlights the fact that we perform admirably and then make individual mistakes which cost us points. That’s correct IMO, so WHY are we persisting with the same personnel that continuously make those mistakes and cost us valuable points?! SURELY the board now acts and gets USA a new f*****g right back before the next outing. There is no other option, we cannot continue with this or we are doomed to the Championship. 

I can’t write us off yet, but it’s looking more and more bleak. We should have got something out of the game today, but again, our own worst enemies. 
 

Harder every week, but Keep The Faith 🦊😔

Anyone can set up like a league one or two team. What’s the plan going forward?? Clueless like Cooper ball.

It’s that individual error every week though by the same player ( and the worst is he’ll be in the starting 11 next weekend) without fault
