    Embleton is a first team player who looks too much at home here ...

    ... he needs to be doing more imo.

    Alese likes playing up front, unfortunately it leaves us short when he inevitably loses out.

    He got away with that one there when the ref blew. It wasn't a foul

    I don't agree. Certainly not that he's been a clear standout. If I posted every time one of our players did something **** in this game I'd be very busy. Some people only bother when it's O'Nien.

    it’s not his misplaced pass for me. He’s looking really lethargic. When he gets the ball he looks a beat behind everyone around him.

    the lad works hard but he’s not a central midfielder. I’m not sure he even was for Wycombe, he played number 10 there but for some reason he’s always been seen as a “6” or an “8” for us, even when played “out of position” at full back.

    I honestly don’t think he’d stand out in Center mid in league two let alone the championship. But as a full back he’s fine. I wouldn’t mind him as a utility sub option but that’s it at this level

    These commentators man. “Can’t see anything wrong” yet a Sunderland player does similar and it’s a foul there!! Fwiw, neither were fouls for me… but the forward wasn’t “clean through” as he’d lost the ball to Alese.


    This is **** mind!!!

    Midfield is a mess. And I don’t see the point of Sohna stuck out wide in the left he’s barely touched the ball not doing the lad any favours

    I didn’t expect much tonight and wasn’t particularly bothered about the result but this has been atrocious…

    The only ones I can think have been decent are Hume and Diamond

    We look a team of strangers, Humes been okay and diamond has been a willing running but other than that it’s been woeful

    This. Hate it when young lads get shoehorned into the team out of position just to play them.

    All about opinions but he is leaving so much space in the middle for them to attack us. Do you think he's played well in this half then?
