4.5m on Kitching might be our worst ever signing

Would have been very lucky to go in ahead, all the same bad habits are on display again. Only one winner if it continues.

Progressing the ball too slowly, criminal AAATB, not really pressing as a unit, only Eccles really trying anything expansive. Kitching with a great assist for the equaliser, though Wilson has got away with some dreadful balls out of his own.

They played Wednesday, Tuesday to Saturday is a standard in this league, no way that’s the problem

It’s not difficult to be critical when a 4m pound player can’t play on another wing and gives ball away every other touch, with most of those touches being awful. I’m yet to see a championship player in him.

We have been shit. Lucky to have been 1-0 up. How many times is Kitching giving opportunities away due to careless play?! We look a foul away from going down to 10 men too with Sheaf and Eccles fouling since their yellows. Wilson's positioning was amateurish.
Wright and Mason-Clark (particularly the latter) need to get involved.
Van Erwijk is so negative going forward. Every throw in goes backwards. I understand keeping the ball but vary it a bit and put some pressure on their back line.

It’s basically the Swansea performance again but we’ve only been punished once.

I’m not sure what game everybody else is watching, but we’ve not been anywhere near as poor as previous games - not great after the goal but still very much in the game

not sure if Eccles’ knock on the head has affected him but he’s not looked 100% since, couple of great cross field passes but 5 yards to feet and he’s struggle and has put our players under pressure a few times…

Kitching is dire, Bidwell looks a yard off it and cautious probably because of the yellow, Wright is doing ok but doesn’t want to get stuck in, BTA and EMC chasing down well, and MVE has looked fine I’ve thought

Wilson has kept us in it, and can’t blame him at all for the goal, it was past him before he could do anything, a good finish from that angle.

Rudoni has disappeared since his goal - needs to get more involved and pull the strings.

Will be an interesting 2nd half, 3-2 Cov

oh and PS please drop Kitching for Binks, he’s by far a better player

Fabulous strike for the equaliser
Shame as kitchen had been solid before that silly header
Nowhere near as much intention as Tuesday do ponderous going forward and Wednesday have so much energy
They also like a dive

Bollox has he. The bloke is fucking useless. Every clearance is poor and puts us under pressure. Against Blackburn he got away with murder with his poor passing. Binks needs to be on that pitch.

Emc has made about 3 starts for us. How on earth could you possibly make that statement at this stage of the season.

Mason - Clark im starting to get really fucked off with. Doesn't bring anything going forward doesnt track back and his positioning in general is fucking dire

McAnthony must be pissing himself getting 4 million

Deserved, they have been the better side. Like after the Tottenham performance Robins has paid the price for starting the same team again. We look leggy and a yard off the pace. Poor

What is happening in training? The intensity might be too high if the players can't sustain two games in a week. Wednesday played a day later.

I'm sorry but he's a winger who's supposed to be able to play off both sides. He spends most of his time playing centre forward, offering zero width and giving Milan nothing to play off, hence he can't get forward.

The distribution from our CBs is so poor. I’m amazed this isn’t picked up by recruitment.

Really glad we’ve got the Sweden U21s starter on our bench so the career backup can start in goal instead.

Wont judge till he’s played in his proper position. He was meant to be Wright’s back up. But we lost both our right wingers and Rafa is chilling.

When Binks plays everyone says Kitching should be playing. Maybe both aren’t good enough
