Not sharp enough in our movement, not quick enough in our passing, not enough runs from midfield players to create an advantage, too busy falling over and looking for free kicks + the opposition have us figured out at the moment

Because they spend most the time trying to pass the ball, mostly backwards, and not looking to shoot when they have the chance.

Because we are clueless, unfit and based on tonight, unbothered.

Philips off form. Grady unfit and off form. Teams know to just kick Pereira he'll fall over.

Robinson looking a shell of the player who first came here, Edwards is too raw. Our strikers are not good enough.

We've been worked out. I'd honestly get Grosicki in for something different and get Brunt on the bench for his set pieces in the last 10 minutes if fuck all else.

God I'm annoyed.

Imagine that front line in the Prem! 

I'd start by bollocking the players who shoot and miss the target by miles. If you aren't going to trouble the goalkeeper, just pass the ball to a team mate who can. Does Slav get them practising shooting at goal? I know Pulis never did.

Absolutely. We’re trying to score fifa goals all the time. Earlier in the season we were playing balls early into HRK and playing off him, we NEVER looked to play the ball forward early last week or tonight. By the time we’ve got anywhere within the last third the opposition are back and in shape. The only time we look half decent is when we move the ball quickly, we just don’t do it often enough

Spot on. Pereira is a big part of the problem for me, too busy buying free kicks rather than focusing on end products that hurt the opposition.

Pereira is a problem? 

FFS we've therefore just spent 9m on a problem?  Oh dear.
