Positive: Changes worked and got back into the game
Negative: That formation is too negative at home. I think it works fine away, but at home we should be trying to be on the front foot

Positives- subs made a difference and the changes gave us impetus.

Negatives- for large large periods as 2nd best as you will see and another day lose comfortably

+ Farke very good for the positive changes
- Farke very bad for putting us in the hole in the first place

Pos. Fought back well after being completely outclassed.
Neg. Today's game exposed the weakness in our squad, press us high, be technically stronger and we struggle to get into the game. Watch other teams imitate Brentford.

Pos: We scrapped for a point and never gave up.

Neg: Today's showing further reiterates the need to bring more quality in.

Positives - We stole a point from a side much better than us on the day
Negatives - Failing to hold onto the ball, midfield overrun, no outlet in the final third

Positive - Farke made a tactical adjustment at halftime that allowed us to get back in the game. And of course the draw!

Negative - Rodon going down with a hamstring injury. This one hurts!!

Positives: We played a team I reckon will be in the top 6 come May. We got the first half wrong, but responded very efficiently and now have better options when we are getting run around to do that.

Negatives: I just do not understand continuing to start Aaronson all the time. His input is wonderful, but his output is dodgy. Same for Okafor - they are both more productive off the bench.

Overall:
Looking forward to seeing Gabi back and hope we still have Willie for some pace.

But again we played a very good team today, who I think could well beat any of the top 3 on their day.
Love that we dont hang our heads when being pummeled - its going to be an important quality.

+ Second half response, particularly putting someone nearer to DCL

- First half with DCL up against three giants on his own all the time

P: We came back well after being completely dominated in the first half and were fotuntate to be only 0-1 down at half-time.

N: Rodon's injury. Far too many passes going astray both in attack and defence.
