    The inevitable defensive cock up.

    Really unlucky as it deflected off Duffy, not much more Gunn could have done about it.

    We’ve been playing well up until that point jus missing the final ball or touch

    Hernandez is so much better as a sub, struggling so far. Dobbin has looked lively so far, need to see some end product form him though

    Right, Chrisene is fouled but stands up to continue running then loses the ball. Surely advantage is lost so we go back for the foul? But no nothing given and Hamer nearly lobs Gunn

    Either the way we play out from the back or the players aren't good enough to do it , but this is one of the leakiest defences I've seen.

    We gift cheap goals from sloppy passing pretty much every game.

    Horrible to watch

    I think our passing out has been really good for the majority of the time, but it’s picking the right times to do it. We make some really bad choices at times

    Gunn digs Duffy out twice in 1 minute after a poor blind back header and then lets Hamer run off him

    Sargent to come on at half time surely and give us more of a presence up top.

    We’ve looked decent and dominated most of the game but Shef Utd are very well organised defensively

    Hills on for Duffy? Crnac having his usual disappearing act.

    On the showing so far we are we good as them technically, but our decision making is inferior. We get near their penalty area and we are clueless.

    We have conceded 38 goals 7th worst .

    Until we tighten up at the back we will only go backwards

    We are just incredibly vulnerable to counterattacks.

    We have been for coming up a decade now.

    And so when 75% of the Championship and Premier League teams play counterattacking styles, is it any surprise we are leaky?

    Penalty to Sheffield Utd. Now 2-0 down. This season of transition is becoming one of disappointment and question marks over the Coach.

    Do you honestly think that looking at the squad we have available today? We are playing a team relegated from the PL last season, whom have conceded 5 goals at home all season. We have 10 players missing, and our best striker not fit enough to start forcing us to play a young RB in CM and a winger up front.

    How is the coach at fault today? How after picking up almost maximum points over Christmas are there question marks for the coach when he starts losing a game to a top team?
