No shots, 0 crosses, 1 dribble completed, 0 corners. Is this a new real low for CAFC? Anonymous forwards, poor midfield, and desperate defending. Sort it out Bows!

The forward line are anonymous because of service.
Our defense has had no real injuries. They're just poor.
Centre-backs look like they haven't had any coaching at all.
So your both digging out Johnnie Jackson.
I said at the beginning of the season I thought our defenders would struggled in this division, week in, week out. And I didn't just mean Naby.
More to do with the ability of the players to concentrate over 95 minutes, than any fault in the coaching. The out ball from the back would normally go to Cullen...
Do you think our defending has been good then over the last 6 weeks? They must work on stuff in training? Whatever they work on isn’t really working is it? More to the point it’s basic errors. If that’s down to Jackson, then yeah, I’m digging him out.
And we didn’t even concentrate for 60 seconds today so I don’t know how they can be expected to manage 95.
I agree we haven't played well defensively for at least 6 weeks but I don't blame the coaching. Against the two best teams in this division Brentford and Leeds we didn't concede a goal dispite having about 30% of the play. The difference is we defended from the front and we got our blocks in plus poor finishing. Too many players trying to make the step up to the Championship. So abillity and partnerships is the key. Sam Field and now Cullen are big losses.
I cannot remember a half that bad since Colchester away in the Cup under Karel Fraeye, not a single one of them can hold their heads up after that bollocks. Almost looking forward to the delights of Middlesborough after watching that!
When games are like this, why doesn’t Dillon just kick it long? It’s no good the back 4 having 52% possession as it invites the opposition to press and one mistake, we’ve let them in.
Doughty playing the number 10 role. Gallagher wide right. Midfield 2 of Pratley ans ledley has no pace and isn't mobile enough.
With Ozzy out we should have played Morgan. Can create something.
Oshi doing blocks all over the place - pretending he's Lockyer.
No service from midfield at all.
With that 11 a 433 would have worked better. Need to make a change at half time. Back to the diamond and pack cm need to win that battle and then start to create. Morgan on for Doughty and then Taylor ASAP.

And 55% possession. It's almost as if Middlesbrough have worked out that it's OK for us to have the ball because we don't know what to do with it!

Fair enough, it’s obviously just our opinions. You are right about defending from the front and also about partnerships. Injuries have dictated for us.

We are 4-3-3

What it should be yes. But from watching the game that's not what happened. Doughty was behind the strikers and Gallagher wide right.
Others have said the same on here and twitter and the commentators have been unable to work it out.

Then bring Pratley into defence for Deji.
