I was genuinely surprised how good Cole was. His all round game was excellent. That might have come with experience as he was approaching the twilight if his career but he was a bloody good forward.

What we lack is any kind of service from out wide. Any width is provided by forwards who then can't get on the end of their own cross. It's a daft system unless you have wing backs bombing up and hitting the byline. Ours don't. We either need genuine wingers to play the wide roles or better wing backs. Either way its where our issues lie.

Dembele on the bench.

Defend from the front is harrying the defenders when they have the ball. Dolan is a good example. It's not really a CF job to track back midfielders carrying the ball. Its part of the reason why we struggle to break on teams as half the time BBD and Gally are deep in our half when the ball is turned over.

Have to say I enjoy watching Garrett. Reminds me a bit of Flitcroft.

Sit back and pray time since 75 mins. Shite.

That just encapsulated Gally in a nutshell

He should be an option off the bench at best.

I've really wanted Gally to come good but he's very poor for his size. Work ethic - yes. technical ability - none physical presence - minimal

Gallagher: Awful

another stupid yellow.

spawny finish but we were due one

Garret did well but a red waiting to happen. Morton just crap. Travis/Wharton for them both.

Formation is crap. If we do actually get the ball down the byline, there is only ever one person in the box. In this system you need a ball carrier in the middle like Rothwell used to do.

Has their keeper had a serious save to make yet?

We'll have to play with pace on the break now. 😂

lol yeah right

Two poor sides playing poor football in a poor league. Hopefully we hold on.

should have used the first one better!

Two cb aside there is not an ounce of physicality in this team. It's also completely devoid of pace. They are the 2 things you need to be competitive in this league. We lack it throughout the entire squad.

he should have been subbed after losing the ball that led to that Sunderland chance. Pathetic.

can't play Buckley and Morton in same midfield. Buckley has been shit but I'd hook Morton because if the yellow and the game is niggly.

Not replacing Bradley Johnson with a physical player was a big mistake.

This midfield is so weak. Embarrassing. The lad up top for them is exactly the type of player that we need to replace Diaz.

Don't worry though. We played out from the back so despite getting a thumping, we'll have added value to our players 👍👍.
