We were awful except, qpr looked ok, ref awful again. Surely he saw that handball. Should of signed a cm.

Mohamed the kind of signing that would get us in playoffs, wont happen

If both true do we even have two international spots left?

Cure thomas-asante scoring against us later

Well not the nicest looking team but I saw pompey place recently, defence full of errors. Think we'll look awful but nick it

Sign a striker and winger who chip in and make the starting 11 then these are both good squad signings. 1 good loan and one fee is realistic.. surely. If trav comes back and plays rest of season w/ tronstad any cm cover won't play, a la baker until a month ago. Trav does have a history of being out of form post injury.. Forshaw's had a decent career (few promotions?) but had injury issues, shades of Fleck, good backup cover until trav back if fit.. dunno if just a rumour though, didnt see sanderson coming?

Unpopular opinion, would've brought buckley for baker sooner. So many oppotunities to break forward/ play final pass and they completely miscue it. Brittain our best player, CBs did well. Sign a top striker and they won't even touch the ball, needs to come with a good winger or two..

Take cantwell off and i think we'll struggle to keep possession. They're on a tightrope in the middle of park, cullen should be on a yellow.

Good lineup, try grab a goal or two then sub on hedges, JRC and defend like animals! Return fixture was fiesty as hell, hope we keep our heads (was a great game though!) Come on!!

If we can beat them twice in these back to back fixtures it'd be a great 6 points, capitilise on their position - i'm sure they've got the players to bounce back later in the season. Hoping we pick up points here at luton and bristol as some tough fixtures coming up JRC in the middle for me, give him another chance, is cantwell capable there?

Yeh nervy most of the 2nd half they were all over us, and when we did win the ball back we made too many mistakes/misspasses. 1st half we looked excellent. Trav on fire, and thought Pears & Ohashi very good. Cantwell also the only one who can turn bad possession into good possession and transition us. I find Hedges a funny one, have said it before. I think the teams better with him in it, but individually he does look lack a bit of end product on final balls.

Nobody overlapping, making runs, so isolated in channels and been dominated physically. Don't think ref has been awful but he's certainly suiting their style. Theyre a good side though but worried how the goals have dried up

Interesting, that why he's not been getting the gametime then? Hope its done if necesary asap..

This 5 at the back looks good on paper, just what worries me is travstad (who both had good games at west brom in my opinion) have become hard to replace, we need that Wharton esque quality to turn possession around in that area and break lines... maybe focusing attack on the wings is the answer though (and suits getting ohashi / gueye in the team together) i like all wing back options more than dolan/hedges/siggy etc. Thought JRC was excellent in last game at rb.. defo his position In 4 at the back i do think trav and tronstad is limiting going forwards, if only buckley kicked on. Can see a loss, be very happy with a win here. What happened to duberry?

Certainly gets our best team on the pitch and seems a well balanced line up

In playoffs, chance to regroup during international break. Though have a few players called up. Could say that for every game really at this point of the season

Win would put us in good stead though wouldnt it.

Carter and Pickering both fairly effective going forwards, Carters had a couple assists hasnt he this season? I do think ohashi and gueye are good signing but not the perfect front two together unfortunately (on paper should be) as we dont play that system.

I'd argue strongest bench we've had since league 1 promotion or before. If brittain /Siggy fit a couple of those players miss out on squad.. Carter RB is a good shout (even if forced) as a physical preston team. Just not sure if Baker is best to start, lets hope he makes subs early if needed. Cmon Yuki your position to keep now!

Everyone can do a dodgy hand signal as they're singing it 😂

He's been getting results in the big games against good teams feels like we haven't had that for years. JDT never got it tactically right (did have an awful squad though). Am really liking Eustace, think this will be an interesting season

bizarre refereeing, blowed for everything first 60 mins, then didn't give us a single foul for 20 (Ohashi could barely touch ball without being fouled) disallowed goal for no reason, gave us loads of yellow first half, didn't give them any 2nd half. We deserved most of them but still make it equal. unbelievable result really. I'd tail it a good start to the season. Beck looks another good signing and not even seen attacking side of him yet. Him and brittain had very difficult games. Baker and Trav with good chances there too..

very debatable weimann foul him.. wouldnt of stopped the goal regardless! outrageous

thats what a target man gets you, shades of the blackpool goal !

Biggest risk is Toth, lets hope he comes good. Any insights into him? 1st time in a long time i feel we've actually got a squad (yes CBs a bit slow), no star striker as such to guarantee goals but thats not a given. On the manager now. If we look good come Jan then surely we've the kitty to invest..
