Awful use of subs. Should have made changes at 70 mins and gone for it

shmmeee · Saturday at 4:53 PM

3 accurate crosses from 23. We need a winger.

AFCCOVENTRY · Saturday at 4:53 PM

As I said in the first half we’ve got to be clinical.

Pathetic game in the end.

Defending crap, stupid free kicks, GK is average at best and Lampard got subs call too late.

3 successful crosses from 23 attempts

Normally I agree but we have eyes mate. Several there hanging. If your on the bench you should be able to at least do 20 mins

bigfatronssba · Saturday at 4:53 PM

Desperately need improvements in the defence

Great_Expectations · Saturday at 4:53 PM

It’s classic us, we’re either Brazil or shite.

Second half, Wright and Torp anonymous, EMC/BTA poor and even Grimes was sloppy. Defence shaky with poor decision making.

We’re an all or nothing team and it can’t be that way if we want play offs.

Whether it’s motivation, fatigue, lack of changes - players and tactics. Whatever it is we need to address it as fixtures are going to get harder.

Matt smith · Saturday at 4:53 PM

Forget promotion

we need Oliver Dovin back asap Rushworth is crap

Thomas and Kitching aren’t good enough

Go all in on Hughes if we truly believe he’s the one, as otherwise we won’t do anything this season

b12345 · Saturday at 4:53 PM

Concerning that Lampard had absolutely no idea how to change the game in our favour second half.

TomRad85 · Saturday at 4:53 PM

BTA served us well a couple of games but Saka comes back in doesn't he. Wing play is different level.

SeaSeeEffCee · Saturday at 4:53 PM

So disappointing. How we go from the first half performances to the second is beyond me. 2 points dropped and a bit of a reality check too. Talk of the automatics was always premature with this defence.

Brighton Sky Blue · Saturday at 4:53 PM

Sounds like 2 points dropped?

Blind-Faith · Saturday at 4:53 PM

Should have put them to bed first half. Wrights miss at the death absolutely criminal, he was non existent second half. 2 points dropped

Macca · Saturday at 4:54 PM

Poor overall really. Need better attacking options than BTA/EMC and better defending options than BT

The Nomad · Saturday at 4:54 PM

Summer recruitment will kill us. A keeper who is no better than that we have and I can't even remember who the other 2 are.

Yes. Lampard needs to explain why he told Rushworth to let in that second goal

If tyou can't see that he needed to make changes earlier then theres not much hope for you in this sport.

PVA · Saturday at 4:54 PM

Fucking frustrating.

Should have been out of sight at half time. Second half rubbish.

Defence poor again and unfortunately big questions over the keeper AGAIN.

Strange lack of subs from FL.

AOM · Saturday at 4:54 PM

8 goals conceded all from set pieces is a pretty crazy stat

JulianDarbyFTW · Saturday at 4:54 PM

I may end up being proven to be wrong, but Rushworth seems ring-rusty rather than poor. Of course, whichever one of those it truly is is an issue right now.

If the players on the bench aren't fit enough, then why are they there?? If Saka can only play 5mins, why bother? Take Rapha. He might not be as good as Saka, but a fit average player is better than a not fit good player. And if the players on the bench aren't fit enough, then it doubles down on a 0 rating for Lampard as he's not put forward our strongest squad. Clearly he and the players thought this game was won before a ball was kicked. Never good enough in a game like that regardless of what point of the season it comes.

Frustrating draw that. Lampard needed to react way quicker. Tats needed to come on 10 mins before he did. Rushworth poor. Not writing him off but that's 2 more questionable goals.

Mild-Mannered Janitor · Saturday at 4:54 PM

That’s poor, missed chances, silly defensive mistakes again and Lampard having his midweek haunt him with the other players not doing their best so he doesnt out them on early enough when others were leggy.
its a point, we move on after the break

TomRad85 · Saturday at 4:54 PM

It's worth noting the favourites for the league are losing at home to Direby. Nothing is given to you in this league.

Skyblue_CP · Saturday at 4:55 PM

Same old story, top 2 going forward, bottom 6 at keeping the ball out of our net.

mark82 · Saturday at 4:55 PM

Should be sat in second now.

Avoidable is Oggy's word. There's a clear problem!

andrew.roberts · Saturday at 4:55 PM

Lampard not proactive
I think we could all see the equaliser coming but instead of changing shape and bringing on a couple of subs to shore things up, he does nothing.

covboy9 · Saturday at 4:55 PM

Lucky not to lose

Its irrelevant really. We are looking at this game isolated as it should be. Other teams will faulter, but we are still allowed to identify deficiencies with our own game.

He was. His miss at the end will haunt me for a few days though.

Also, Rushworth is poor. We can't pick a goalkeeper can we.

And when it looks like they might have done, they do their ACL.

SkyblueTexan · Saturday at 4:56 PM

First goal conceded: Stupid foul by Thomas. Wall had a hole and shot should not have gone through.

Second goal conceded: Stupid foul by Kitching. Wall set up poorly and allowed ball to get around it and beat goalie at the near-post.
