Definitely not a bad performance we were by far the better team but lacked cohesion. That will come no doubt but we do lack some class centrally at the moment particularly in midfield. The good thing is it’s looking tight between the fancied teams and Sunderland lost so we’ve got time to gel. Sheff U look very solid to me and will be right up there. Parker looks a canny manager at this level too.
I know it’s an easy thing to say but a Hamer or similar gets us a 1-0 there.. we’ve very little goal threat from outside the area and midfield with that starting 11. I believe Tanaka is known to carry a threat as is Rothwell so maybe they need more game time..

Pretty much my thoughts Trebor but we must also remember Burnley had what 7 players missing from that line up. Maybe Tenako and Rothwell alongside Ampadu in a 3 man midfield would give us more offensive options. Do we use 2 defensive midfielders due to our defence being flaky? I also much prefer to see right footed wingers on the right and left footed wingers on the left. Get the ball in the box rather than this fancy one touch stuff that rarely works.

A game we should have won. Poor second half, thought we got the subs wrong, shouldn’t have taken Aaronson off, as we lost all energy, don’t think Rothwell was the right choice to come on either.
Would have like to have seen Tanaka and Ramazani on sooner

Solomon is a left footer on the left. look at his goal created for joseph v hull. granted he does come inside too much. for me it's more the no 9 the issue

Aaronson was flagging he’d not been back for USA duty long. Ramazsni deffo should have come on earlier. We seemed to lose all shape after he made the subs which is a common theme with Farke
A key 3 games coming up that we should get some good points from. It’s then 3 very tough games with Sunderland away Sheff U at home and Watford at home.

We are also lacking someone carrying the ball forwards through the heart of midfield. If the Jap is ready he needs game time and maybe the answer. Is it Farke’s decision to play inverted wingers ? If it is it may seem very fashionable but can kill any momentum with the player constantly checking back inside. Solomon was a prime example yesterday, checking back inside and then playing tippy tappy with Firpo, Aaronson etc instead of getting down the line. He doesn’t look overly fast neither. Early days, but we don’t want last seasons problems manifesting themselves with a different set of players.
The "Jap"? Is this the 1970's? Truly no need for such a use of this type of language. It's at best clunky and there good grounds to suggest racist. Goodness me.

Yes you're right, I mistyped in my ire. At best it's clunky it should read but actually it isn't clunky, it's a racist term and has no place on here. Jamie Vardy would agree. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-l ... e-37477703
