Are you claiming an assist?

What a crazy game

Great finish

Not so far for sure

Wood and Stephens playing the beckenbauer role today beautiful passing at the back

Subs due about now the usual 60 min mark

Last year everything was one touch

We are now playing a low block WTF

There feels like something going on behind the scene. It just doesn’t feel or look right, this isn’t about be patient this is about the structure of the team being off defensively and in the midfield. Not being fit, wandering about etc…

This doesn’t feel like a side altogether and energised to correct last year. Absent midfield this week again just running straight through and really weak defence .. not great

We look so slow. Wandering around

So simple

Oh shit

I wonder if Bree benefitted from Charlton’s time last year and being fitter. Looks slow and puffing already

Fantastic movement and finish.

I think Jack always looks worse when the midfield isn’t right. This was particularly so under Martin. He seems to try and fill the void and gets caught between being a cb and midfielder. He also isn’t the most skill full player (understatement) so really shows up his often produced mistakes. losing THB not only loses us a competent cb but also loses us his goals as did Charles from midfield. worries me a lot. The erosion of quality we are seeing and then buying untested or undemonstrated quality in replacements. I do fear that too much of this will put pressure on players left in the side that they didn’t have at the time we were good last season. Bragg is a good example.. play in a side functioning well is very different to being it this year in midfield in a side that might struggle feels like another rollercoaster moment where we have to wait and see what happens next.

Such a disappointing game. That first half cost us. 7 points off playoff place after 1 game

How the fuck did he miss that

Pedantic ref playing along with Watford dark arts

Dreadful lazy incompetent half. Let’s see how they respond to that shit

4v 4 every attack they have. Midfield missing just playing over us

We don’t look match fit at all. No energy or pressing

Need to buy that anul guy and send them Stephens

Defence there but shyte

Midfield major problem.
