    Actually liked some aspects so far, we look to be 10 yards higher, Neil is basically like a 10. Not creative enough yet though and worried we get exposed with neil and jobe pressing that high. SOL sounds a bit flat mind, tbf it’s probably -5 there!

    Good defending again by Seelt with a bit of help from Ballard

    I don't think we're looking good at all given the opposition state. I'll reserve judgement again until second half.

    Yeah on paper but it's a poor attendance for us and my row is completely empty for the first time i my season ticket length.

    Don't like it so far. Slow and Jobe and Neil don't have their rotation down at all. Which is leaving huge gaps and braking down most of our moves.

    These are so poor and missing players. We need to be stepping it up.

    Pointless bringing another striker in if this is the service we provide to the ones currently at the club. 2 touches.

    Yeah was just saying, sometimes they count the ST hofkeds who are not there. That's what I mean.


    Never seen my full row empty before.

    This is clearly a tactical change by Beale. It is much more a 4141. The press is there when it is on. Front foot. Just not quite gelling yet. For those wanting tactical changes they are there today.

    It’s very dull I’m afraid. Jobe is unfortunately also consistently losing possession

    They have zero strikers. Both midfielders.
