Sigh.

Kova never should’ve came off.

Haaland needs to sort his body language out - poor.

Where was the added time for the goal celebrations?

maybe...... but there were several occasions where he was poised to score and Savinho and I think Nunes took the shot on instead of giving it to Haaland.

It's his fucking job to put the ball into the back of the net.
 
Are people on here really complaining about the ref not adding more time? Did you not see the game? We should be thankful the ref saved us from another defeat.

Another poor performance, just as every other one for months against teams on a higher level than League 2. Just didn't get lucky this time like against Leicester and West Ham.

Hopefully Txiki will soon stop "working" on deals and start to actually get things done instead. The window is open 3 more weeks but we needed signings yesterday (or preferably 6 months ago), not in the end of January.
 
Didn't deserve to loose despite not playing well but really wasteful. You can't plan for your world class forward missing two sitters. Should have had him off at 80 mins, he was knackered.
 
makes no sense leaving Haaland up all game when he was hardly walking after 80 min plus. no press, no closing down, no track back from Haaland. looked injured at one point too. why not pull him and bring Lewis for adding bit more energy on defending or move Nunes middle and have Lewis at RB.
even the Gundo sub, should have came for KDB to help Kova out rather than instead of him.

also the shit effort to try to block those crosses before the Brentfold goals.

Fumin with Haaland. Leading up to their first goal he was walking around for 5 minutes shaking his head looking at the floor with his shoulders down like a spoilt little wakner. That attitude spreads, sort it out Pep.
Well done Ake for not making me go out of the house at the end to kick a cat.

I think Haaland was carrying a knock for most of the second half
 
Teams simply run through our midfield every game.

Another game where the opposition could easily have scored 4/5-so a draw was prob fair.

A lot more positives than recently but, we are terrible in defence. The fact we are not putting our chances away like we used to is killing us too, because teams know that we wilt so easily under pressure in the last ten minutes.
It very frustrating. We need youthful energy.

Exactly this.
 
That game had everything. A crap midfield that also had moments of magic. Haaland playing well holding the ball up but not a sniff otherwise. Nunes doing as a right back part of the time and looking dangerous going forward to also looking clueless. Kev having a generally poor game but ran his socks off and produced when it looked like it mattered. Pep giving McAtee all of 3 mins plus injury but he should have scored and settled it with the one touch i remember. Ake amazing game but missed a crucial header.

It was a fantastic game if your a neutral but can’t say I enjoyed it. It was a game we just had to win.

Ortega isn’t the answer in goal for me. Better shot stopper for me but not convinced by his distribution.
