Sean should have been subbed at half-time.

His worst game of the season by far!

In 5 away games (including against teams like struggling Fulham and Burnley) we have only scored 3 goals.

All in 1 game against bottom of the table Wolves.

We have lost every other game with a scored 0 conceded 11 and have the worst goal difference away from home in the league.

All three & others made suicide passes & lost possession far too cheaply.

and if he talks to the players before a game like that I make no wonder they haven't a clue what to do on the pitch!
I wouldn't read too much into it Swannie.

DF has always been a waffler.

He's worse when we lose.

I knew you'd be unimpressed.

Can I join the Tyzy gang?

For the first time in ages, I predicted a Leeds defeat, so it must be catching. :lol:

I knew we would, that's because the bench is worse than our first XI.

Disagree with that, our first 11 has Longstaff, Bijol, Aaronson and DCL who are all back up level. DC works hard but the quality is lacking.

Coming on as sub in a game like that is always tricky, you don't get time to acclimate, the system changes, your coming on cold and of course the game has just about gone.

We started the game a very narrow 451 (with Aaronson basically a 4th centre mid) and bought James on and stayed narrow. James couldn't get into the game. Stach did better than Longstaff and got away a decent attempt forcing a good save. Harrison and Justin were strange subs.

No Piroe was very strange at 1-0 down.
