    Can't do anything right now. Hoilett knackered.

    Cant complain despite unusually bad defending the better team won.

    Impressed by Blackburn. That 6th spot might have been theirs if Dack hadnt got injured.

    Its going to be difficult for us now. But i dont see how we get through 2 legs v Brentford anyway.

    On the plus side I think Harris is improving us. Those errors are uncharacteristic.

    Have to question Harris’ team selection - Hoilett in particular- plus at 2-2 he doesn’t make any subs. When he does it’s too late.

    Overall Blackburn wanted it more, pressed and deserved to win. City didn’t play any football in 2nd half, just hoof ball.

    City looked knackered, clueless and probably have shot their bolt.

    Still in our own hands but we're making life very difficult for ourselves.

    In saying that, if you'd said we'd be where we are now at the start of the season I'd probably have taken it.

    Clearly was not watching the same game as us Nin. A fit NML was really missed. His extra pace would have tied up his full back and changed their tactics.

    I can't believe how poor Sanderson and Nelson were last night and Bacuna deteriorated as the game went on culminating in his dreadful pass.

    It was like half of them were hungover from the night before.

    I'm not looking forward to Fulham with Mitrovic back and busting to go.

    There's a lot of game time in those legs in a short period after a short 'pre-season'.
    I mentioned in a post a week back that I thought Harris should rotate his back 4. Only 1 at a time, but they need some rest. While its important to maintain partnerships, it is also important to keep people fresh.

    Bit limited on the full back front but Bennett was the least bad of a poor bunch. Not sure if I want Flint on the pitch but if Bamba is 100% fit then I would give Nelson a rest. At least Sol, Morro and Bennett have good previous together.

    Smith has had little game time and I'm never comfortable playing a left footer at right back. Somehow a right footer at left back seems to work better.

    Its a balancing act between continuity and 'legs'.
    Its how the manager earns a crust.
    Agree on flint and would add pack.
    Dynamism needed for the 'new style'.

    Watching Fulham yesterday they looked a sharp, fit, quick and more dynamic team. I can’t see City living with them so maybe Harris may hope for the best in that game and so rest a few and go for gold in the vital game v Derby.

    I did!! I said it before (and was accused of sour grapes), you were very poor against us, we were worse for sure, but we are in very poor form and even lower on confidence. I don't think you will make the Play-Offs tbh, but sadly you may well finish above us, which until 4 games ago was highly unlikely....
