    Really basic stuff in defence, like 'don't play the ball across the face of your own goal' seems to be completely beyond out lot

    Ladapo is a bust.

    Rather see Kanu on instead of Ladapo. Looked very poor so far

    Why the f**k were we so slow to support Ladapo?

    For example, we just had the ball at the edge of the area, played it back to the CB (which is fine there were a lot of defenders back) and he lumps it out for a goal kick

    Really not warming to Ladapo. Rather Kanu up there

    Terrible, T Watson gives the ball straight to smith and Isted saves us.

    Watson does a charlton special. Isted to tje res ue again.

    Another neat save from Isted, to be fair the shot was tight and at his near post, so would be disappointing had he conceded from there.

    Sam Smith denied from a tight angle by Isted. Didn't see how the chance came as I looked down with us seemingly in a comfortable position on the ball. I've missed a lot of goals we've conceded for that reason this season.

    I fail to see what he brings to the party, he looks slow and lazy. Kanu on at half time please

    Our out balls so rarely find a red shirt.

    We kick it up front to two players stood 20 yards apart from each other. The ball then just comes straight back at us, it's brainless.

    Both of these. He was really ponderous, but nobody came to support him for what seemed like 10 seconds.

    After a pretty bright start we have regressed to a team that is shaky defensively and not clear what we're supposed to be doing in possession.

    I don't think the board realized the risk in making so many changes in January. This is a starting XI that has never started together and I don't think has played together. And it shows. There's not a great understanding of what to do in possession or defensively.

    We have to start playing through Coventry and Watson. This is a team that when it had midfield of Dobbo, Fraser, and CC/LW was strong in possession. And keeping the ball is now a huge weak spot which makes us less likely to score goals and puts our defense under more pressure. 
    It’s because the board are shit and don’t have a clue.

    So close, looked all in from Fred, but no, just a corner

    Oh my, Ladapo shot deflects just wide and hits the advertising board behind the goal. Looks in, only a corner.

    Good effort Ladapo... Unlucky... Good block

    Also this team looks SO much better pressing and defending on the front foot. Edun is really good at that part of defending, less so some of the other bits
