There’s clearly something going on with opposition being given a free card for deliberately fouling against us in the penalty area - The evidence is undeniable.

I mean I'm not one for conspiracy theories but I have never known as many cast iron pens not be given... It's just becoming bizarre.

Those of us who weren't happy with our summer business were practically bullied on here but that defence and our subs bench is a disgrace.

If King doesn't spend big this month he should walk!

Think it's best to leave the mentally weak to panic right now. They are not gonna listen right now.

I’ve tried keeping my positive hat on so far but this performance has blown a fuse. Absolutely pathetic.

Lack of ideas and lack of passion evident today I thought.

Things are slipping big time.
Click to expand...

Yeah 100% no lack of passion for me - maybe a little too much passion from Bobby

Can’t say they weren’t trying, but there’s certainly arguments to be had about the quality. Players like Rudoni, who wasn’t hiding and was at least getting on the ball, just lacking that end product.

I don’t even want to talk anymore about the defence today as that is plainly obvious.

I'm now convinced that short of taking down a player with the ball at their feet, absolutely anything is fair game in the penalty area. I need to see the replays but from where I was stood that non call for EMC was one of the worst decisions I've seen in my life

Missing the energy BTA brings, he closes so much space down in the opponents half forcing silly passes or long balls. Hopefully he is back for Leicester.

Don't agree with the passion bit. Ideas, maybe. Also hope Saka isn't too bad - awful challenge from that Wagner.

You can't give away goals like that and then say you deserve something out of the game. Not with a straight face.

Not the result we hoped for... but worst case scenario we will still be 6 points clear at the end of today's games.
No need to panic just yet imo.

Simms header the other week when the keeper saved it. The issue is not just Sakamoto but also EMC. Sakamoto xA 0.26 Vs EMC xA 0.01 today.

I'm going to to go against the grain and say BTA won't make much difference to us now.

Teams know how to play us by sitting deep and letting us play this ponderous passing game. BTA will just be denied space like the rest of them.

By the letter of the law, he would have been sent off regardless of whether the player went down.

Urgh mentally weak. It’s not weak to call on the obvious that we should have pushed for more squad depth which is costing us now.

He just doesn't do the simple stuff. He tries to do stuff when there's no need.

He kicked the ball out about 5 times trying to do flicks.

Been saying it since he came back, he makes us worse and slows us down.

How do you work that out?
We lost, leaving us on 52 points. Boro are on 43 points. A win today theyre on 46. 52 - 46 = 6.

So ill say it again, by the end of the day today, we could be down to a 6 point gap. 12 points down to 6.
