Absolute garbage.... defence is a shambles. Hughes can’t help the garbage he’s been given by reed and co but yoshida is probably the best centre back we have and he’s been 4th choice in the past. Going to IKEA!!

We started really welll and got into some great positions but just didn’t have the quality of the final ball. Redmond and Bertrand were very good and the midfield balance seemed better. Right side was a concern with moi and Cedric not really being in the game. If moi was purchased for pace it was evident he didn’t have much. Time will tell. I didn’t get the tactics with long. He’s quick and Morgan and mcguire Are not but he hardly played on their shoulder and was often far to deep when we did get the ball to really pressure them. Hughes can only work with what he was although surprised that maya nor gabbi were on the bench unless injured. I think we’re in for another uninspiring season though... a bloated squad full of average players. Can only blame the owner and board for that... how reed is still there is very surprising.

Another terrible perfermance today. Absolutely no cohesion or leadership anywhere on the pitch and we really need an outfield captain. People have been raving about Hammond but did i miss something today or at the last few homes games i personally don't as yet he has improved our midfield. Patterson is not good enough yet..think thats about 5 missed chances in the last 2 home games. Lamberts head is dropping as he is simply getting no service whatsover. On a positive our defence looks better with trotman.

I went, it was a shambles. No cohesion anywhere on the pitch. Unfortunately you can't have luxury players on the pitch and Lallana is just to lightweight and lacks impact unless off the bench. Needs to play with some width and have someone who can get to the byline. Lambert needs something to go on!

**** it!
