Keystone Cops stuff there.
Agree Rodon should have just hoofed it, unless he got a call from Mes.

Drameh is fade - can I join in the melodrama.

Their first goal was as a result of us trying to hold a high line. Risky without pace. Drameh was done twice with a ball over the top. Did CJAY get on his soap box ?

Rodon was also at fault for the 2nd goal. Both him and Drameh were lax. Rodon could have cleared it but tried to let it reach Mes and the attacker nipped in.

s**t happens - our high line needs sorting out. It is not so much about individuals. The 2nd goal was just sloppy.

Rutter did well for his goal.

I really thought we would turn a corner with Lord farquaad at the helm. We simply cannot loose or draw this game it would be criminal

Been very clinical, though not surprising with the talent out there, but we can't defend for s**t, so we really need a 4th or we won't get anything out of the game imo.

We've rarely seen Rodon play, or Piroe but we're all positive about them. Rodon involved negatively with both goals for them.. and tbh even after the poor back pass I thought it would be comfortably defended

Dramah is a proven Championship RB and has been player of the season and a member of a promoted team... I will still say he'd be better on the right than Ayling..

Well it'd be 6-4 to us as we've missed better chances..

To see htf he sorts our defence out for the 2nd half is gonna be interesting to say the least.

Most important h/t talk all season coming up.

Thought as much

It's a weird performance

Working offensively but defensively it's awful

We need to be controlling the game.

Dramah has cost two goals so far. Rusty, maybe but it’s not a great start. I get it’s not his preferred position but they were fundamental errors of judgement.

Not sure what Rodon was doing there, could easily have cleared it.

Just saw our goals at last.

Rutters was terrific, everything we were told about him, two feet, strong, composed. More please
Gnonto and Piro both showing poachers instincts, you cant teach that, it is pure instinct.

Defensively it is poor with our high line being exposed by a lack of control in the middle of the park.

Overall we are lucky to be ahead but it is still the best I have saw so far against a well drilled side

They have the extra man in midfield so always have a midfield runner to pick out once they get down the sides
