Positives.......

Negatives....

[Cjay]

Bump

[Finnatic]

P. Honestly can’t think of anything- that’s a first from me

N. Out battled all game by an average side who upped their game.

[Prisoner37]

+ DF changed his substitute strategy; brought em on 90 seconds earlier today.

- It is so dull watching the pattern of our now three by 1-0 defeats play out.

[Overman]

P - Nothing.

N - Worrying away form will cost us in the end. It's the old addage, but we do lack a plan B, other than superfluous subs. Lessons don't seem to have been learnt from last season, it's generally a poor standard in this league.

[SG90]

Positive: Nothing
Negative: Same old crap every time we lose and manager who has no clue how to fix it, never a plan b before these games either

[ElKapitan]

Positives.....

Created clear cut chances and looked capable of scoring.

Negatives......

Blackburn created clear cut chances as good as ours but looked defensively solid. Few times Tanaka etc stepped in last second to stop situations developing into clear cut chances. Didn't feel we looked like scoring all that often for a side who disregards defensive stability for attacking numbers.

Blackburn looked the more dangerous for parts. Always an ebb and flow to a game but felt it was fairly well matched. Are we getting enough from the supposed quality of this squad against the middling teams?

We have seen the "sit back and frustrate come and break us down" tactics before. Still no answer other than 6 attackers piling forward at 80 minutes.

We look predictable as we did last season (Southampton in the final) and I'm genuinely unsure as to why they review opposition tactics before the game as we play in exactly the same way regardless.

We have very little physicality and never look like scoring from set pieces or corners. Crossing from wide expecting James/Gnonto to score against CB's is genuinely funny to watch.

[Musicman1965]

Positive - Only a short distance back
Neg - In Games like this you dig in and grind out a result, We didn't...... Bamford on before Joseph Really!!!

[1964white]

Positive ---- I'm struggling to find one of any merit.

Negative --- Our shooting/headers on target were woeful.

[CUSSIE01]

Pos - Went & looked at pups after the game, cheered me up.

Neg - Probably our most disappointing performance since the play off final. We were shocking all over the pitch.

[Johnsie123]

Imo I honestly think arronsonn is a waste of space a lot of running and no end product,but nobody seems to agree with me on that ? The only reason he is with us is because nobody else wants him simple. We need a striker who can take the opportunity that comes there way cos piroe and Joseph ain't good enough and don't get me started on bumble .

[Sean_Nile]

+ Remembering Piroe has scored 7 goals and Aaronson 4 and Gnonto has 5 assists.

- We all feel penalty penalised that a defeat should happen to us, and we can't accept that it is an inevitability during a long season. Mistakes happen, you don't always get what you want, but sometimes you get what you need .

[mentalcase]

P: I live to see another game.

N: Too many to mention, but a lack of plan B is at the top.
