 I can’t remember us giving the ball away as much as this for years. It’s terrible.
Plan B, no <->

Why's the ref actively ignoring that Dempsey foul then?

And Jones tickles the winger's wrist and that's a FK. Stinks a bit. Big day on the TV for you?

They press, we just amble back. Really poor.

Get on the blower to Klopp and see if we can loan Bradley back.

Says a lot about Dion's display today that we've taken him off when we're in dire need of a goal.

I think that may be his worst game for us.

Absolutely no chance. We’ve not looked like scoring and they have closed this off really well.

Glad we’ve made these subs as they are just showing us that somehow they’ve managed to make us worse. Which perhaps explains why they were subs in the first place.

Evattball though is in desperate need of a plan B though. We’d be embarrassed a level up trying to play like this week in week out without adding some serious quality throughout.

The second half feels a bit like the Barnsley playoff game. Only 1-0 but we’ve just not looked like scoring. Portsmouth comfortably better and far more dangerous when they get the ball.

Ah well. They’re deservedly top. Time to dust ourselves down and go on another run.

Genuinely weird performance at this stage. When Dempsey can't be arsed covering with a 10 yarder you have to ask what's gone on.

This second half has been truly incredible.

The ball gets scooped back into play about 8 yards from Bod and he doesn't even bother looking at it.

They break down the other end and score.

Wow.

Another very poor goal. Walked between our two most experienced defenders.

Very disappointing.
