I’d love to know how many different midfield/ attacking combinations we’ve played this season.

Only Leeds have looked like an actual quality side against us. The rest just play bang average and are gifted piss easy goals

It's a pretty average league this year. It makes us being so dire even more frustrating.

Difficult place to go, fair enough. But we’ve been poor ourselves. Sorry guys but tonight hasn’t been good.

I don't know how anybody can think tonight has been good, irrespective of how much evo1883 liked Mark robins

We seem to have really lost the ability to counter. At our best in the past couple of seasons it was a real strength.

Not sure he has to cover it from outside of the near post though.

It’s been a dreadful performance in possession (first half) and out of possession (second half).

Our defensive recruitment has been shambolic.

Binks couldn’t get in the side all year last year and we decide that he’s the answer to our problems

Kitching has been truly woeful since signing

JDS is the weak link every game and is targetted every single week

Thomas is erratic, terrible distribution

Lati is past it

If you’re an attacking player in our side you must feel so let down by the dross behind you

When you put it like that it’s a really good point. Everyone goes on about the attack, but there’s no one in defence I would actually be gutted about losing at all.

It's less that Harry and more that these players seem to turn it on and off at random

Tough place to go but we've offered almost nothing.

So much attacking talent in this side but I still don't think we've fully unlocked it. Big job for any manager.

Right, Scott Parker has them playing lesser than the some of their parts but they still have really good players.

We've come out of our "nightmare" run with only 1 loss and we'll likely have a manager in play very soon.

Calm the fuck down

Evo if you’re going to take words out my mouth I said we defended well first half which we did. Second half has been poor, but it’s no secret you’ve been slightly more nihilistic since we sacked robins

It was a freak cross, but still think he was too far forward ahead of the near post. Anyway, blame should sit with not clearing the ball.

Get to 50 points and forget about it while teams assembled on a fraction of the cost do far better

Yep this is it. Not one moment did I think a win was a possibility from kick off. Total lack of drive.

Burnley have been absolutely average.
It's just disappointing we didn't have a go at them at all.

No but it shows the level. He's very good and looks so comfortable. Not one of our keepers looks confident.

Been a really poor performance all round. Looking forward to someone who can get the best out of these players.

If Lampard is watching this shite, he might have 2nd thoughts about the job.
