Out centre halves are poor. They just aren’t good enough at this level

The tactics are bizarre unless they just ignore robins. When Dabo plays he’s hardly going beyond their penalty area. Kane literally ends up at their by line.

Mastsen cant go down the line at all. Does he ever?

In the end though Hyam and Rose are not good enough - we let opponents have the odd chance abs they score - pathetic

Its combinations at the back. I think Hyam with JCS and McFadz alongside him has been good.

so what? You seem envious they can sign £19 million forwards abs we have freEbies. That’s Sisu live with it.

Like, we all get you hate Hyam. I don't hate him but recognise both he and Rose are very limited.

I think the system we play is very reliant on having very good centre backs, ones who are comfortable on the ball, can keep up with quick strikers, and maintain concentration.

I think Rose and Hyam have both adapted to the way, but have never looked like naturals when put under any kind of pressure.

Disagree. They're both agile and good on the ball. If you want a 6ft7 monster then fine but that won't help the way we play.

Hyam is a very poor passer of the ball and neither of them are good in the air. Would you say Rose is good on the ball?

Neither of them are great in any of the core competencies you’d want from a CB let’s be honest

The attacking players could help out and finish more than 10% of their golden chances as well

We do miss a lot of chances I agree, but our forward thinking players have generally been much better, many top championship teams would take a handful of them happily. They wouldn't touch our defence, wing backs included, with a 10 ft pole.

I presume thos is meant as a joke? Should’ve been booked at least twice. Shocking refereeing

We’ll probably been said already-how the hell are we 2-0 down? Time to start pushing uphill.

Don't have to be a £19m forward to score his chance though.

Still, it's a good way to make it a rant and not O'hares fault and make it Dave Boddy's.

Have we won a single game where the opposition has made us change ends at kick off?

I think they're both calm on the ball and activate the passing lanes into centre midfield. They ain't john Terry but that's what fadz is for. Depends what you want. Would prefer fadz plus 1 of them and not both together granted

Fadz is calmer on the ball than both of them. I don't think he's the future mind.

Callum should have done better with his chance but I'm more concerned with defending the six yard box in front of goal, both Birmingham and these have scored free headers there, Moore has to start coming off his line, he's rooted to it.

Gave Moore no chance. Unlucky with deflection but caused our own problem.

They look like they have changed formation to 3 at the back.

O'Hare chased it but dived before he got to the ball.
