    We can't keep relying on Clarke turning it on, we need a solid defensive midfielder to allow the other midfielders to link up with whoever is playing up front

    Feels like "one of those days", meaning the opponent seanced with demons before kick off and traded someones soul for three points.

    It’s really frustrated me that he’s not had a run in place of Jobe. The kid needs a rest and Adil deserves his chance.

    He will probably start Dack…

    Absolutely baffling. Mowbray is great for giving the kids a chance but his substitutions are woeful most of the time.

    Awful that. Really don't see what Mowbray is trying to do. If Aouchiche and Mayenda don't start on Tuesday serious questions need to be asked.

    well, cheers again RTB...

    As i said earlier, cannot be making comments on players for this game as the IPTV was dreadful, cannot even make a MotM comment to be honest but this was once again a game we could/should have had wrapped up in the 1st half yet they get a shot on target and score, we just repeat the same stuff time after time.

    as it stands, rusyn and mayenda seem to be the 'most likely' to grab a goal amongst the strikers...TM obviously knows his job far better than me but in all honesty i would get them training and see which ones work well together and choose them to start rather than any faves or 'guaranteed game loans', there is a great team spirit but they are seriously lacking partnerships across the pitch and at times it is obvious when they seem to have to take time looking for a pass.

    these are young lads and can quickly lose confidence, the fact they are still playing well is enough to give me the confidence that they will 'get there', i just hope it is sooner rather than later.

    Had doubts after Stoke and Swansea, but I’d be looking to improve on Mowbray now

    He’s done a great job but I think 5-10th is his limit

    We're wide open at times in our midfield, sort that out and we'll be fine

    Thought he should’ve started today. Think Jobe needs a rest

    I think Dack and Aochiche will start next game. It's just not happening for Rusyan so I expect Mayenda will start too. Rusyan is a trier but same as Hemir it's just not clicking.

    Not good enough for a team that wants to be in the top 6!!
    Plenty of effort but no end product and a frail defence isn’t going to get you promoted.

    A shot every 4 minutes and we still can't score. Disappointing

    I would rest Jobe but put Adil in his place
