It's funny watching the highlights compared to the game (ifollow, in my case). Events appear in a new light. Bayliss gets absolutely clattered after the Bakayoko chance. Was that a free-kick and yellow card? Should have been but can't remember. Their corner was well outside the corner segment...

Just been watching Tuesday's highlights. Burge saved us again and again and again. MOTM easily. I think the anger at the way we lost to Burton found an easy outlet in critcising Burge and it all became rather unseemly. All the same, he is erratic, that cannot be denied. New keeper? Not sure...

That was still worrying me before tonight

Not sure we deserved that but Burge kept us in it again and again - MOTM by a country mile. Meyler looking leggy and off the pace, yes. Bakayoko still doesn't look good enough overall. Brown did well when he came on, Shipley stiffened us up while still being less than a top player. Why no shot...

Fleetwood have looked more dangerous though not necessarily much better Great goal Hiwula and he's playing well. Not seen much of Bakayoko apart from his astonishing goal. Giving the ball away too much in middle of the park and often end up chasing backwards towards our own goal - Bayliss...

Strength to fucking strength, ace stuff Kelly's pass back put me in mind of his pass back against Notts County away last season, albeit from a less pressured position this time

Played very well for the first 15 minutes and then in bursts thereafter. Burton were considerably less able than us a footballing unit but played to their strengths, saw out our early pressure then imposed their game of hassling, pressuring and crowding our men. A notable change in mood and flow...

Stockdale 8 - did nothing wrong as far as I could see. Looked unfit though! Sterling 7 - pretty good. Not to the forefront as much as recently. Willis 7 - didn't seem in any trouble but worried me a couple of times holding on to it for too long or making avaerage clearances Hyam 8 - seemed to...

They're maybe the most limited opponents I've seen, twice, though Plymouth and Wimbledon weren't far behind.

Abysmal - did no one predict that's what Blackpool would try to do?

and Bristol away

We've given up, like against Blackpool in August, Scunthorpe, Plymouth and many other teams recently

At best

He isn't good enough

This is small comfort, but in the first half Blackpool were the worst opposition I've seen this season - as they were in the away match. Looks like it'll be the same result though as we can't score and have no gumption.

Not sure about the top end of the league. But if we score more we should be fine - right?

An ifollow match for me, as usual. First thing: some terrific football and overall a good performance. We played really well, quite a lot. Plenty of chances created. The first half was excellent. Hiwula was really lively and Enobakhare looked in control in the midfield. Plymouth or Shrewsbury...

There's a school of thought that the small percentage of great stuff that leads to goals is all you can ask for from a tricky winger. Almost no one beats his man 7 or 8 times out of 10. Messi, maybe. Plus, couldn't you say about almost any outfield player that apart from the good things they...

Yeah, these aren't far off. I'd give Burge one more though (6) and Bayliss one more (7), plus perhaps a 6.5 for Kelly. He was relatively enterprising. Bright was all right and so he can have a 5 from me. Not clear to me yet what he'll offer us though. Chaplin largely anonymous.

In the first half, kicking towards their few dozen fans. It was a sort of low scissor kick that Roche parried from what looked like two yards away.
