Would be nice to see each one of those players out there have their stand out moment. Haven't quite seen it from Santos, Matete or JDC but i'm hopeful they'll get it.

Really good team performance as it stands.

JDC provided the assist for Dions second goal though.

I've not slagged JDC off in our house today so he must be doing something. His energy has matched everybody else.

Matete is extremely confident however he's been caught a couple of times when the pass has been on.

Just seen Reading's goal and I was extremely harsh on Santos. The lad is falling back, toe pokes it with the outside of his foot and it bananas in.

Yeah, their goal was a bit of a fluke whatever the arguments about our defending leading up to it.

Agreed bwfci
First twenty five (and you can’t keep it up / don’t need to if you go three up) into tackles, get it forward and attack the box

Good to know. Almost had Toal in for the needs a moment bunch, but he also helped with that second goal.

[officer_dibble]

I think the formation change to a simpler one has helped mind

[Mar]

Good stop from Santos that.


It's going to be interesting to see what level of intensity the subs bring onto the pitch.

[Prufrock]

Back to horrible can't get out. This is going to paper over all the cracks and lead us to going back to everything that didn't work last year.

[DJBlu]

Ffs Santos.

edit: wtf ref? Didn't touch him.

[Prufrock]

Ffs Schon

[officer_dibble]

fecking hell Santos, what a tit

[The_Gun]

Looked a dive, that.

[HMX]

Barely touched him

[officer_dibble]

Pressure is on now
Anything but a clear win from 4-1 up at half time is poor

[Mar]

Looked like three fouls in the build up to that penalty.

Sloppy.

[sonicthewhite]

Just got in so kettle is on.

[DJBlu]

Always a tough ask to get the levels up from the first half.

Think a change might help.

[officer_dibble]

This is where we miss a proper midfield hard man. We’re being overrun in there. Not sure Dempsey for matete is going to do enough.

Would be interesting to see how this plays out without their fluke first goal. They've got a bit of a spring in their step.

I'd definitely argue for subs. Could do with Collins getting a good performance out there.

We don't have one. Matete looks like the most combative of the two. Dempsey looks a good runner when on form.

[DJBlu]

I'd be bringing Demps on for Matete.

Arfield on for him.

Goes back to the whole question of 'where the hell does Arfield play'.

Seems like he's being put anywhere at the moment.
