Must say, I didn't see us getting back into this game. Fair play. Decent from Powell and Jorgensen. I still feel nothing though.

They are also far more up for it than we are.

Get ready for League One lads, we couldn't beat our own dicks.

You're obsessed man

I'd rather have brought Duru back than persist with TGH, but that might imperil the fee we are hoping to get for him.

I like Toth, but I feel like he might not be communicating with his defence since he came back.

For us. Swansea doing alright. Sloppy defending from that corner.

That Ji-Sung looks good. Great feet.

So am I.

Cheers, I had stopped paying attention for a minute and they kept replaying the block in the box instead so I was confused.

Correct, not every bit of contact is a yellow. Shoving someone to the ground from behind like that when they're attacking absolutely is though.

What did O'Riordan get booked for? Feel like I missed something there.

Clear yellow card there. Just a freekick though and somehow their player looks stunned that even happened.

Three senior LB/LWBs on the bench. One inexperienced youth LWB on the pitch. Why, on both counts? I know De Neve is shit so no complaints there. But I'd much rather have Pickering or Ribeiro at LWB in a relegation battle even though it's not really their position and they won't create much. Powell better be ready. And if we are starting Powell, what's the actual point of having three players who can only possibly come on in the same position? With the slight exception of Pickering I guess, who could play on the left of the three, although we already have two left-footed CBs on the bench too. I suppose there are just so few players available for the bench they might as well be there.

Does it? What does it say?

Yeh I was just about to say, looks like we signed the wrong Bodo Glimt striker...not that we could have probably afforded that one. (Not saying Jorgensen won't be a success here btw, but dayum, two against City in the first 24 minutes)

Another 25 year old Dane

How do we know? What's the highest level he has played at?

We are in a relegation fight, one I expect we will lose. I don't want to be guaranteeing anybody game time unless they're already the real deal at this level.

Was Carter off injured or as a half time swap to manage his minutes? I can only see that he came off in the 46th minute according to livescore.com, dunno if that's after a minute of ET or the first minute of the second. From 1 up to a 4 goal capitulation second half. Looks like swapping Carter out for McIlroy caused problems. Nosegbe got on the pitch for Pitt in the 87th minute, and we conceded the final goal a minute later (after also conceding a minute before he came on).

The next edition of FM needs to give him a 1 out of 20 for positioning. And that's only because it doesn't do 0s.

Says everything when you lose 3 nil and the keeper wins MOTM

How did she go from 'no idea how it works behind the scenes' to that?

You have absolutely wasted Szmodics. He is a fine player and deserved better.

So I was working all day today and I've just watched the highlights. What in the Shane Duffy was that own goal?! I knew Cashin had scored one, but that was far worse than I expected. Nobody anywhere near him, keeper has the ball covered, lashes at it for no reason giving the keeper no chance, and then, possibly worst of all, casually grabs the ball and heads back towards the centre circle like it wasn't shit. Appalling. I'd say Sammie Szmodics looked more embarassed to score!
