I actually thought Eccles looked better when Kelly went off and we were losing, he seemed to at least be trying to get on the ball and make things happen. Before that he was anonymous. Saka needs game time but not at RWB, he needs to start at 10. Either alongside Ayari or with Ayari playing CM...

This is an overreaction based on 30 minutes and I don’t entirely mean it, but £4.5mil for Kitching? He is not the comfortable ball playing CB I expected, he looked ponderous.

Saka looked good too, but nit convinced he’s a wing back. I’m not entirely sure what he is, but I’d like to see him involved more.

Simms > Wright

Not read the last few pages but I’m sure the general consensus is we’ve been absolutely shite. Which is entirely fair; I am really struggling for positives. I don’t even understand our tactics or what we’re trying to do.

We have no luck with injuries. Be good to see Saka though albeit would prefer him not having to be in a position he has to defend. Palmer needs come off now - value add of zero.

Would like to see both Ayari and Saka second half. Don’t care if that’s in a box or Ayari playing CM and Saka 10, but two creative players - whether they are ready or not - are needed at some point (ideally early) in the second half.

Godden is class and we’re winning the league.

Even the Cardiff commentators are referencing our lack of movement up front. I’m far from a glass half empty type, but this is really horrendous. Not sure I can pick out one positive.

Really really don’t want to be on this train; but Wright needs to do a hell of a lot more. As it stands we honestly might as well play with no strikers - it’s consistently coming back. He’ll come good, but he does not look ready to be a main striker for a promotion chasing team, yet.

Have to say the Cardiff commentators are pretty knowledgeable on us. Other than the odd silly mistake it’s pretty impressive for an opposition outfit.

That is horrendous defending

I’m a Palmer fan but I’m also disappointed after his last performance. However he was possibly jet legged - if you’re being kind. Regarldess, I think it’s more about MR not trusting Ayari yet. Simms needs some game time too, I know he’s enemy#1 for some, but he isn’t going to improve and get...

Stream went so missed the goal. It’s back now but what happened for the goal? We’ve been poor second half, so goal deserved but feels like a gut punch still. Still early doors so no need to panic, but some positive momentum would be nice.

Actually, I forgot about Saka. His trickery could offer something but not sure who for, unless he goes to a box.

Wouldn’t mind Simms for Godden. Neither Wright or Godden have been particularly good or bad, but Wright stays on as he has the pace to make something happen.

I think it’s gone a bit under the radar; big shout out for Binks who has come in with very very limited minutes and not only been solid but positive too. Also, Kelly has been everywhere so far.

We are looking really really good again now. Fantastic passing and moving. Cliche but need to capitalise.

Started well and have dropped off. Seems we’re playing the high press in their third and sitting off/keeping shape thereafter. Definite mistakes in the Hull defence. Seri is their obvious playmaker, he’s good, but honestly think he thinks he’s better than he is. He’ll take silly chances and...

Bad game for Eccles haters this; he’s started very positively. Lati is so so composed for a CB.
