We have a team who really lose all sense of reality when we go a goal down and play against physical players, and why do we always look knackered after 60 odd mins? We have such a disjointed team that if we did go up we'd be straight back down again, it's almost bloody pointless to be honest.

Don't think he's gone down softly once today.

He gets wiped out routinely. The idea he dives is completely wrong. 

I'm not saying he dives... But he wants to go down and win a free kick too often - it makes him a target.

He has that Grealish trait of wanting to win a foul even when he could easily go by someone or pass the ball. I don't like it. He's a great player, why not just show it without doing all that shit.

What are we doing? Passing it around at the back. Not even trying to attack. Players don't see to realise we are losing.

This is tonda ball, 5 at the back vs a relegation side with their top scorer out injured - and no other in their team having more than 7 goals in the champ 🤣😂. But hey, we've won a few games, so regardless of the actual performances and the very valid concerns with our Southgate esq tactics, the clappers absolutely love it 🙄🙄

In recent games, when we've been defending a lead late in the game, we've seen opposition teams put us under intense pressure trying to equalise.

But that's too obvious for us, we're just pissing around at the back instead.

I think we'd sign some new players.

Romeu turning like an oil tanker there. Not that it matters, we aren’t scoring again today.

Not sure why he's on, we need pace and forward playing players we are NOT defending a 4-0 lead. No point putting on players nearing retirement and not able to have pace

Hope we get a keeper on loan 

Norwich sussed us out , carbon copy of millwall game 

And a template for every away game to come. This division is full of limited but physical teams who can replicate this approach.

To be fair, Norwich have played much better football under their new manager ergo they're probably in a false position right now (a bit like us a a couple of months ago)

Not a good performance today. Away from home, Tonda needs a rethink and fast. We’ve regressed to Russball and all its shortcomings.

The commentator loved it.

Not the first effort surely, if he gathered the weak shot in the first place the 2nd doesn't happen
