Tough game tonight no doubt, it will be a very good night to come away with 3 points. We'll need to be on it. I fancy Ipswich to drop points tonight at Watford, could be a draw that.

Another disappointing midweek performance. Too many sloppy passes and sloppy touches. Sunderland seemed to have a game plan, and executed it well. I'm not sure what ours was. Gnonto should have been on for James much sooner, when teams drop back and don't leave space in behind, he's not going to be as effective because he doesn't have the technical ability to keep the ball in traffic with his back to goal.

Didn’t fancy us to win tonight thought it would be a draw. Wonder if illness running through camp played a part.. farke left subs too late but he’s been bang on to date so will leave that there.
Have to win next 2 which includes Ipswich at home to have any chance of top 2 now imo. We’re a bit unlucky that Ipswich and Leicester are having a record breaking season. It’s a tough league is this and we’re still a player or two short imo particularly at left back and another option at 10.. big big two weeks ahead

Poor all round performance tonight other than Messliers top class save. Rutter again trying too many fancy flicks and lost the ball quite a lot. James I agree JB should have come off on the hour mark for Gnonto. Gray caught out at the back for their goal when he should have moved out in line with the other defenders. Struijk another bad clearance leading up to their goal that`s 3 in 4 games for Struijk. Also strange taking Spence off as I would have taken Gray off and moved Spence to RB. Ampadu again below par along with Piroe. I think it showed last night we are not a top 2 team and I would put us fighting for 4th/5th/6th with Sunderland and West Brom.

5th or 6th? based on one performance. let's talk about leicester or Ipswich away if you want to talk about games in isolation. we were under par no doubt but come on, we lost once after a fantastic run. plus there was a flu bug running through the camp. half a season to go yet. let's see where we are at easter

I had a look back at previous championship tables, and it seems the promoted teams averaged between 7 and 11 losses over the season, with the exception of Burnley last season, who only lost 3. 90+ is also usually good enough for the top 2, which is the total we're on course to hit. We would also be top of the league at this stage with our current points total of most championship seasons, including last season. We've been unfortunate that the 2 teams above us are on course for 100+ point seasons.
