Bloody 'ell, we need some muscle in this team. I struggle to understand one thing though - defence was dreadful last year, yet we didn't sign any player and let some of them go? We are on our way again to concede 2 goals per game on average this season.

He was very slow in the promotion season too, but the methodical possession system meant it wasn't as evident.

Everyone has been complaining about the defence, but it's the midfield where we're being destroyed. None of the 3 are good enough, especially not in this system. And I include Cairney in that

If we don't substantially invest in the team this week, I could easily see us being in a relegation battle this year. That's not an over reaction.

Pathetic dive for a penalty by Kamara again.😥

Looked like a penalty on the replay.

Nonsense... Shoulder to Shoulder and he fell.

Whatever your the expert as always...Funny that the commentators laughed at it.

I don't claim to be an expert, but I prefer to form to my own opinion. And after listening to the commentators I wouldn't count their opinion as more worth than yours or mine since they generally sound fairly clueless.

We need a little bit more urgency going forward the passing out from the back is woeful, Kamara making wrong decisions a liability in my honest opinion the team don't look like they have played together before . Fair play to Barnsley . I hope scotty is roasting them

Kamara was also a disaster. Proving further that you can't rely on him to start.

Everyone has been complaining about the defence, but it's the midfield where we're being destroyed. None of the 3 are good enough, especially not in this system. And I include Cairney in that

If we don't substantially invest in the team this week, I could easily see us being in a relegation battle this year. That's not an over reaction.

Of course it's an overreaction. Plenty of teams with much worse squads then ours.

Having a better squad on paper means little
