Mason while playing badly at least doesn't hide. Sterling has been worse.
Bayliss has been the best player for us so that is saying something

Mason dallies when the early cross was on, ref blows for half time. We look like conceding every time they cross the half way line, getting knocked of the ball too easily, time for one of Nicks two footers.

That was the first minute.

Too slow to get it forward as we’re sitting too deep leaving too big gaps and time for them to get back into position. We need to get it forward quicker and use the pace we have throughout the team.

Mason sees so much of the ball, but is rarely productive. However it’s not all his fault, there’s a lack of movement around him.

The crowd is quite toxic. Everyone’s been Friday afternoon drinking and it’s resulting in a lot of negativity. For example, we all know Burge has some massive weaknesses but jeering and sarcastically applauding is stupidity.

Second half, we need to revert to our strengths, play football, use our movement and press.

Don’t think I’ve seen a defender so comprehensively in a strikers pocket than Davies and Akins this half.

He will be no loss. He's good at heading but he's not going to take us forward

Only needs small tweaks to get back in this. I'd go Brown for Mason at HT, push the backline up higher and bang the front 4s heads together until they can't overthink things anymore..

And in the week, practice crossing and bi-line pullbacks as we are so poor at both.

And then when there were three men in the box he decided not to cross the ball and lost it. I also noticed that. If he had crossed the ball i would have commented on him winning the ball and racing forwards.

Good news is Burton's 'equalisers conceded' rate is 50% away from home and they've conceded a fair few goals straight after HT. Need to be back on it from the whistle.

Bayliss ran with the ball into 4 Burton players, politely asking them to move. They didn’t and Burton scored.
We need someone not Enobakhare taking set pieces he can’t miss the first man.
Davies is rusty, Mason is awful.
We’re playing with 10 men because Bakayoko has done about as much as me to help the team.
2-1 win

We just need to push up. They are exploiting the gaps we are creating from once again losing the midfield.

Hopefully we just try and shoot and not walk it in.

Too slow on the ball. Nervy at back. Burge looks at his worst. You can’t take corners and free kicks and not get it beyond the first man.
Must turn it around and quickly.

Maybe a new ref will help

The official who went off has just been receiving treatment from the burton physio. Would have thought that was the duty of the home team?
