So what did Harris say before kick off? “Play deep lads, let them come onto you, nick the ball off them and hit them on the break.” As predictable as night follows day. Only surprise is we’re not 2-3 down. Murphy is atrocious. Ward is anonymous.
Rather frustrating watching Mendez and now Murphy running directly into defenders.... not around them, just into them. Tomlin trying to knit things together but nobody else on his wavelength at the moment. Could yet snatch an unlikely draw but need to get in and about them a bit quicker when they have the ball (like they are doing to us really).
Ridiculous to think that Brentford’s squad cost probably a fraction of what Madine and Flint have cost us
Gave ourselves too much to do. Only played for 45 minutes. Had enough chances to go 2-2 but perversely we didn’t deserve anything for our negativity in first half but did deserve a point for their late endeavours.
Yep, encouraging 2nd half (conceding early aside)... Ah well, 3 points at Leeds as usual on the weekend then I guess?
