    Yea, so I don’t see how you can take issue with the guy copping some blame for the goals conceded tonight?

    at fault for the last goal should have done better but so should ajer for their 2nd, but was ajers ball all day every day and he let it pass him, who really said ac milan wants ajer i dont fuckn believe it tbh

    we cant just keep smashing individuals though as the whole team every player has had shockers this season at different times as a result at some point we have to stick with an elleven and hope they start performing like a team

    were a shambles :(

    Lets not forget a few weeks ago everyone was wanting bain in goals cause barkas was *.I think even FF would struggle in this team,there is only so much a keeper can do.

    Can’t criticise someone because others deserve to be criticised more.

    Strange.

    He’s absolutely shat out of that 2nd goal tonight.

    Barkas has been ridiculed by many since he came in because he isn’t Fraser Forster, but the same people are happy with Bain?

    He’s not good enough, but he is the cheap backup keeper and that’s why he’s playing like the cheap backup keeper.

    From that point of view I don’t have any issue with his performance. We know his role, he knows his role and he’s doing the best he can.

    Too tight he is not good enough. Here we are going for 10 with our back up keeper between the sticks. Unbelievable

    Where have I taken issue with him copping blame? I think you’re reading something that isn’t there.

    The issues are all starting before the opposition even get to his goal.

    The 3rd goal stemmed from another woeful setpiece delivery from Christie..

    Aye but he is back up. Barkas deserves another chance from now until Jan or its the market in Jan.

    Didn't really see the 3rd and 4th goal but absolutely for the equaliser was it when ball was played in through the box and past Ajer?

    There the entire defence can take blame. Ajer for just letting it run through, Jullien for mot properly tracking the runner, Bain for not reading the situation and taking matters into his own hands and just clattering his own player and opposition to make any decent attempt to stop the goal.

    The 2nd goal, same really, Brown should have got a stronger foot to ball, players didn't mark the 3 left in the 6 yard box and Bain again made no effort to read the situation and try and come out to close space.

    3rd and 4th no idea haven't seen them, don't want to see them.

    It's obvious we need * better. But right I don't see any difference in playing Barkas or Bain.

    Simply not good enough, if we still had FF or CG available we wouldn't have shipped half the goals we have. Everything begins with the keeper and those in front of him must have confidence in him. Barkas must be given until January to prove he's the No 1 or we get someone else in.

    He's fine for the odd game as backup but never good enough for our no1, that's always been the case and I don't mean it as an insult, he shouldn't have been playing last night and only did because Barkas has been thrown under the bus, as if most of the goals we've shipped this season aren't down to the midfield and defence in front of them letting teams stroll through on goal like they aren't there. Even Forster would have a hard time keeping a clean sheet the way teams are opening us up.

    Goalkeepers can still be culpable even through there’s 10 players in front of them.

    He was horrendous last night. Bottom line.

    He’d of dealt with the 2nd and 4th goal better.

    Bain holds blame as does everyone else, especially the man who picks the team.

    If Bain is the answer, the wrong questions is being asked.

    ridiculous comments being made.

    Bain is an extremely good option to have. a very competent, no nonsense keeper.

    The Greek is even more so, which is why we paid so much for him.

    players all across the board are not only under performing, but look like Sunday league Muppets.

    eddy, a world class striker, looks like he's never seen a football before.

    Broony, bedrock captain, looks like he's just been signed at the age of 18

    Callum... look at him in a Scotland shirt and tell me that he is the same in hoops

    Duffy... lauded by everyone to plug holes, bully strikers and bring a long needed air threat...* looks like he just discovered fire nevermind a football.

    Ajer... Elly... Ajeti... Turnbull...

    on and on.

    this squad is * dynamite.

    but there's something rotten to the core happening.

    don't for a second think these players aren't good enough to empty this league nevermind win it.

    I totally agree. We have the players to blow this mob away however my worry is it’ll be too late by the time the legend that is NL is forced out.
    I watched the manky mob on Thursday and if we were to play them just now I would fear for us. They’re not great but, very well organised, work very hard for each other and seem to be coached quite well.
