He caused problems running at players and beating them which noone else managed all game, he also had a shot that was deflected over by the defender. Like I said caused more problems than anyone else did all game. Baffling how people can't see it, he instantly drags another player across to mark him creating space for others. Unfortunately too many poor performances tonight

They do but we need some leaders on the pitch to break the mold. Beale came in and gave us a very rigid shape that the young lads seem happy to sit in. We needed tightening up but it’s one extreme to another rigid shape no movement very slow Thought this would loosen up and it did second half agains Plymouth but tonight was back to square one. yet it’s the same players that were playing entertaining exciting football not too long ago Need to give Beale a chance but it’s a hard watch at the moment
Just a few months ago we were all saying this is a team who give their all, never give up, don't know when they're beaten etc.
What happened??
We now look like a team of mid table plodders

If I was Beale I would be raging seems like our midfield don’t have the balls to fight or show the intensity to be fair , probably need O’Nien to move in to midfield to show them what’s needed- another spineless and gutless away performance!
Unfortunately I think tonight is a bi-product of having such a young side. Every so often we are going to get games where we are not at it. Normally the experienced heads would see us through a game like that, get the younger lads back on track if their heads went down after something doesn't come off for them, and manage to get a draw out of it.
I'm trusting the process for what we are doing transfer wise, but think games like tonight will happen along the way and hopefully lessons will be learned from it.

O'Nien at DM organising and motivating would have been useful tonight. When our midfield 3 have an off day like today we suffer big time, he'd stop that from happening.
Yet if you compare his stats he is no worse than last year

Only thing I agree with you on tonight. He never broke any site rules. He could be annoying and most disagreed with him most of the time, but as people are noticing now, never sharing the same opinion as the certain majority is now a banning offence on here.
Shameful.
Indeed. Yet with a bit of luck we’d have actually got something!! Terrifying that we nearly got a point despite being horrendous. First half I thought we were as good (well, bad) as them, second half we were worse!
Just about all season! Not just under Beale
20 games left for that, plus carries, passing better so far.
He doesn't have Amad to bounce off either
On our way back now and don't really know where to start.
Was OK with the starting 11 but straight away was shocked at the formation - give there left side too mich space.
Too slow and predictable with players seemingly unwilling to break forward at speed.
Then, getting beat and to take off the only forward we had on instead of giving him support seemed strange.
Finally, for me, the worst 2 players, stayed on all game - Bellingham and Clarke. I would have brought Hemir and Aouchiche on for them and played Mundle on the left.

They’ll just thread ban me like they did last week when they didn’t like my non-offensive post.
