Need to get atleast a draw.

We've already dropped too many points against teams we should have beat

The first goal was a poor attempt at trying to play Armstrong offside. Cooper stepped up when he made the run but the rest did not follow suit.

I'd change the shape.

Take off Summerville, push James to the left and Rutter to the right and have Piroe up top.

Use an extra MF to try and gain some control, otherwise this could be 5

Well I'm open to suggestions because Shackleton has been eaten, and the bones are o the pitch for everyone to see. That last cross into the box had Shackleton 3 yards ahead of Souleman and totally unaware of where his man was. They will pummel him in the second half.

Ayling shouldn't be on the bench.

Pascal shouldn't be on the right.

Jimmy - Should be taken off.

We are way way too deep now.

This is a fckin mess, and a complete change needs making at H/T
I like this Kenny. Take Coops off and insert Rodon in order to switch Struijk? Take off Byram and switch Shacks to the left? Switch James to the left and put Anthony on? That’s how I’d do it.

I’d also go ahead and take Ampadu off for Gruev (Ampadu looks tired) and make a point to Meslier by putting Darlow on. Mes has been asleep.

Poor from Cooper, not sure why Rodon doesn't come straight back in.

Struijk unlucky with the deflection for the 3rd after a decent save from Mes.

There second goal was just quality - great finish

Wonder how much Farke telling Rutter to stop show boating is having an effect.

If that is the tactic - was it Cooper of Shacks not paying attention.

Didnt think that was sensible st the time.

Remember Warnock talking about Taraabt and how he never told him to shop showing off because he wanted him to play his natural game.

Replace Ampadu with Gruev - so you know he will make a difference then ?. You cannot click save and reload the match when it gets worse.

He made Byram dizzy and not many have done that.

I don't understand why when we play better teams Farke tells them to not press.

Villa 3-0 at HT to Brighton.

Sometimes good teams just get outplayed, like we are today, it happens
