    Swansea pressing and we are all over the place in our defending.

    When we have a chance of a clear break out from defence we just waste the opportunity and give up a good chance to get it right down to their penalty area.

    I wouldn’t have taken Wells off, thought he was having a decent game..
    we were very good for first 70mins, but since our subs, we’ve lost our continuity.. Swansea have dominated ever since and we will do well to get anything out of this..

    I know we went into this match with player issues but these are the games that have to be won if we are to improve. Yet again the last 15 minutes got to us again and we were lucky not to give up all 3 points. Wells should have stayed on IMO as he was having a good time out there.

    When Martin comes on the ball needs to be played into his feet, so he can hold the play up.
    Never happened though but just glad we didn't lose

    We don’t draw many games but 1 point is better than nothing

    Absolutely spot on with your comment

    Semenyo is half the player of last season but taken those two up front Twas wrong.
    Would have taken a draw before the game with the illness situation.
    However we should have won that game-chances fliuffed first half

    I actually thought we looked balanced for the first 60-70 mins.. nothing really troubled us at the back and we had more clear cut chances than Swansea..
    I thought Pring, Scott were our best players and Semenyo was chasing shadows..
    I would have kept Wells on and brought on Bell for Semenyo as I believe we needed the pace to add pressure up front..
    although a draw was a fair result, I think it was a missed opportunity to get all 3..
    The wrong sub might have thrown it imo..

    The strange thing with Semenyo is he terrifies defenders so is constantly being watched, this then enables team players space.
    Once he went off no matter how bad he, it seemed they relaxed more and invited themselves onto us.

    I get that and I think he does give defenders something to think about.. when he first came back from injury coming on as sub, he looked on fire and up for it, but I find lately, he looks to be trying too hard to score and find his attempts a bit wasteful.. definitely a good player but has lost his confidence in front of goal..bit like he was a couple of seasons ago..

    Pring and Scott were our best players today.
    I really think Nige got it wrong taking Wells and Scott off we lost the attacking motion.
    Semenyo I agree should have gone off.

    I really rate Pring don’t understand why he doesn’t play week in week out.
    MOM for me today.

    It’s only my opinion mate, some will like, others won’t, not bothered either way..
    I try to be honest regarding Niges tenure, good and bad..
    I haven’t got the deep love that RR has. And although sometimes I think NP is doing a half decent job, I also recognise many (what I see) faults in his locker.. I think deep down RR also recognises it, but won’t admit it :emoticon-0103-cool:
