Strange sub. Why not Bate? Oh well can't complain about Cresswell getting on.

Missed opportunity imo. We rise two places, but could and should have pulled way clear of the drop zone.

Double corners, double shots, almost double shots on target, yet we don't win again.

Best performance of the season.

Better team thorughout.

Should have easily won (maybe if you buy attacking players because they are good at scoring and creating rather than running we would have).

You have to win games like today at this level, you cant be that much better and not get 3 points.

Very happy with the performance but so so frustrated.

If yuo cant win when you deserve to then you have a problem

Best performance, but poor finishing cost us today, could easily have been 5-2.
Why take forshaw off and replace him with cresswell when Bate is on the bench ???

Much better - few nerve shredding moments at the back - but that is always the case. Need Paddy back or for MB to realise that Gelhardt does actually kick the ball in the direction he is aiming , which would be a rather useful addition.
But sly dig aside that is more like it. Thought Rodrigo had a good game overall, his pressing was fantastic. Foreshaw take a bow - solid game after being out for so long.
Deserved more on balance but would have taken a draw beforehand so happy.
Feel sorry for Harrison / he needs to sort his head out because his psychological fragility is ruining his game.

As always, if Raph isn't playing or playing well, we have no goal threat. I struggle to believe Summerville would be any worse than Harrison.

Because in the last minutes of the game there were corners and Cresswell is good with his head andthus an opportunity to score a goal.

Simples.

Better team 1st half and 15 minutes of 2nd half - lost our way a bit for the final half hour. Better than a lot (well most) of our performances this season so far so fairly happy with that.

Once again we show promise but incompetence up front has cost us 2 pts. I read the other day that we don't practice shooting in training....well it is clearly evident ! At least getting it on target would be some achievement for our lot bar Rapha of course. If Cooper plays beyond this season as first choice I'll be absolutely astounded as he is such a liability I don't know who's more nervous him or his team mates, he has to step down next season. Meslier is also making silly school boy errors which is concerning. Overall I thought we deserved the win but the quality is just not there .
