1. Still in the JPT and the "dream" of Wembley intact. Although I cant see us getting any further unless we find out why we cannot play every game like we played Blues in the Cocup.
2. Jennings - this guy impresses me more and more.
3. McGoldrick. best player on the pitch. Just hope he does not get pissed off with the crap around him.
4. ???

Not one sky blue player played well last night. There was only one positive - we took decent penalties. That is all.

Jennings I'm not impressed to much by at the moment.

Prefer Thomas in there when fit

parking is easier
less queues at the bar
ball boys can hear you shouting at them
plenty of room for Jordan Clarkes cat to run around
Raheem Sterling should walk into the side when he comes on loan
Great British Bake Off got record viewing figures

To be honest I don't think Jennings did much wrong?

To be fair nick he didn't do a lot to do much wrong. When the switch is on he passes 5 yards to Kilbane. He is no better or different to clingan.

Not where I was. The queue was fecking massive, never seem it so big. It was a low crowd but everyone was in one stand and they only had half the Kiosks open. I was v fecked off at half time.

Reece Brown - any positives there, he's played all 7 games so far and looks like he is first choice.

Except he does the ball winning part. I can't say I had any issue with Jennings

He does tend to play the way he is facing and what he can see rather than champagne passes though?

Jenning is my player of season so far. Looks very assured and almost playing a captains role. Hope to see more of it

thought Jennings did ok and was one of the better players in a poor first half. Didnt really influence the game enough though

Brown again did ok, wasnt the worst performance from a city player i have ever seen but gets caught out of position a bit too often.

Hussey was awful in the first half ...... but i dont understand booing our own players - thats just moronic.

McGoldrick was the best player on the pitch, showed some nice touches for a player who hasnt played much recently. Spoke well after the game too, didnt get carried away with being MOM and he thought he needs to do better

Wood did ok - and christie was ok but to be honest this was Burton not Birmingham (with all due respect to Burton) and you would expect our players to be able to cope defensively. It was midfield & an exposed left back where we struggled. Burton got forward when they could but when they did they were quick and direct. All of our midfield failed to dominate the game in any way. Our forwards didnt get a lot of good service, created most things themselves and even created for other players.

So positive was we won (eventually) McGoldrick looks like he will be useful, our centre backs looked reasonably in control and Murphy sttood up to the plate and won it for us.

negatives ........ same old same old ...... no pace, poor movement, poor decision making, tempo is a little better but still inadequate, the booing of hussey, too many players hiding, we dont look like we will score.
