    Been coming for the last 10 mins. If they push their wing backs on, someone has got to drop in and help our full backs out. They have an overload out wide every time they go forward.

    Thought we looked decent for the first 15 then they took control and obviously they score.

    Szmodics is quality, we're really missing somebody at that level. Bad mistake from Jones there.

    Love Sonny Carey, but he's got that pub player thing about him today. 
    Was hoping he might learn to get his head up before running or shooting into a wall of players this season. No such luck.

    Same tactics, just to someone different, was Dykes/Leaburn last season.

    "Hydration break"

    I'll have a Broadside or Hobgoblin if anyone's offering.
    Like your choice of beers.

    Mannion looks so skittish these days.

    Carey is having an absolute shocker here

    He’s not. But he was caught at centre half for that goal and still not good enough.

    Mannion on the ball is barely League 2 level. So shaky. 

    Have to get better if TK is off.

    Mistake made and punished. Need to display character and get back in it

    Need a better player in that Carey role if we're ever going to get out of the bottom third of the division.

    It’s literally just the same as last season so far. Lump it and hope for the second ball.

    The only slight difference is we have pace on both wings.
    Not seen TC yet. As I keep on saying, he's wasted on the right.

    Yeah sacrificing a man in defence by playing 4 at the back isn’t great unless it actually makes a difference going forward

    Carey needs hooking, constantly the last midfielder back. TC and Grant getting back before him.

    We’re losing all the second balls now. It’s absolutely killing us

    Dropping deeper and deeper, sitting and watching them play in front of us at the moment

    That’s what happens in a 4231.  Knibbs was the the same against Reading.  The wide players become defenders

    29 minutes gone……..has Campbell touched the ball yet? 🤨

    If Knibbs can’t challenge him this season we’ll have serious issues

    Is the suggestion that it is Campbell's fault?

    He’d be OK alongside someone more creative if you’re asking him to be more of an 8 and arrive late in the box and get chances etc. but he’s never going to be your sole creative force. He’s not that player.

    Good spell of possession into completely pointless long ball to Campbell.

    Barely. All our attacks focused towards Grant on the left.

    If TC did nothing else this summer he should've learned to kick with his left bloody foot.

    Already been a number of crossing opportunities that he turned down to get back to his right and the same with a shooting chance.

    It's criminal that modern professional footballers will not kick with their wrong foot.
