We are very very sloppy tonight - would rather this type of performance in pre-season. First goal we didn't close down the shot, second one we didn't clear the lines and had a lapse in concerntration.

However, some positives are Targett looks much better as does JWP in terms of getting forward and gambling.

Redmond looks off the pace, and Holberg is really letting the game pass him by.

Shane Long isn't a winger, Austin looks like he slows us down and struggling against a well drilled defence.

Game needs Boufal, Tadic and Gab.

We look pretty ropey out there, usually like target but he looks like a league 2 player at the mo, errors and poor passes galore. Let's hope we can get it together a bit.

 

Too right...

So what is this method we are playing. The movement and support for the player on the ball is at a minus level! What does that do? It gives the player on the ball no one to pass to.....which leads to? Errors.....

When a player receives the ball there is no one anywhere near him.

Such basic stuff and one wonders what all this training has been about....

I was hoping 'slow,ponderous,lack of imagination,impotent' would have all left with Puel.

We need an injection of imagination in the second half.....oh and some defensive qualities wouldn't go amiss either.

 

Really hope we get some incomings to the excitement back.

You get bad performances in league games and friendlies, let's not overreact. I think it's needed to see where the weaknesses are and what needs improving. In fairness the game has been very even but we didn't take our chances and got punished for it. It's a poor performance in terms of movement and silly mistakes. But by no means should it mean a meltdown on here.
