    Looking like a team that’s still gelling, Ajeti’s not got the link up and Ntcham as the link between midfield and up tops keeps hiding wide, getting Frimpong’s way and making Eddy go wandering. He needs to take the ball in the middle and work the strikers into it.

    They’ve looked pretty good all season to be fair. But comfortably winning 2-0 in the first half isn’t the worst I’ve seen us reqlly.

    Surely they are doing us on possession and attempts so far?

    With the talent we have on that field we should comfortably be able to control a game like this.

    Instead we're seeing slack passing, struggling to retain possession, no pressing, acres of space for the opposition both out wide and in the centre.

    We shouldn't drop points today because of it but it's nowhere near good enough. Not when we have far stronger teams to play coming up.

    Wingbacks aren’t helping in midfield enough for me. Forrest more than Frimpong. Forrest is either LB or LF. He’s not pushing up enough when defending, we almost go 4-4-2 when they attack. I’d rather keep put shape and pack the midfield with the wingbacks and centre mids.

    Aye it is understandable to am extent but no a 2 up here we should be confident knocking it about now but we're far from it..

    The only difference between the side's right now is we have unreal talent up top..

    If he's offering more offensively, then he's not covering the team against counterattacks.

    I wouldn’t say we look comfortable in the slightest.

    They’ve hit the post and Barkas has made one fantastic save, and a few good claims for crosses/headers etc.

    We’re fortunate to be 2 up.

    I’m talking about progressive passes. Not running 60 yards up the pitch to shoot.

    I'd bring Soro on for Ntcham at HT, if we're ever going to see him let him come on at 2-0 up to sit in beside Brown. Ntcham is sleeping defensively and not been involved going forward anyway either. Would also give us the option of seeing McGregor with freedom in the 10.

    Aye, I get that. It’s Ntcham’s movement for me just now, it’s just breaking down. McGregor and Broony are doing what they’re supposed to be doing, Ntcham’s just kinda wandering about midfield rather than being the link.

    Most important position in this formation for me, even if he wasn’t playing well, occupying the right position makes the system work. Doing my * in.

    i just think were so used to having 95% possession in games we dont like to run about this much and thats why we look shady as * at times

    things had to change cause that possession game wasnt working anymroe

    Not really seeing it mate, I’m quite comfortable we won’t drop points here.
