    Time & time again...

    We are outmuscled and lose out both at the back & in midfield.Its not as though we have lightweights etc. In my opinion its down to technique, or rather lack of it. Morata's goal was an absolute joke & is a prime example.Mbemba went down like a sack of tattoos !!!!

    Funny that

    It's not been a good day for Ritchie either. Seems to have had a hand in 2 of their goals.

    We're really missing Lascelles organising them all.

    They were better to a man than us. It was a shame for the game that Ritchie lunged in on Moses - we could´ve hoped for a lucky equaliser at the end without that.

    Shelvey is becoming a luxury player for us - defence splitting passes but very suspect in defence and losing the ball too easily.

    Darlow was MOM for us IMO - couple of great saves where he stood up really well.

    I´m glad we didn´t capitulate and we can go into the next one with something (small) to build on after the last two performances.

    True, but we could end at 17th position after all the games are played out!

    Don't want to appear negative but I fully expected a defeat today.

    That is the reality of how we are playing at present.

    Thankfully we're still 14th, although Cherries still have to play.
