Geez should be at least 2 up

Unlucky by Idah a few minutes back,  Ruddy looked well beaten to me

Honestly with respect to Ruddy our plan should just be "shoot fast and hard at the goal" as I don't think Ruddy really has the best diving reflexes anymore

Fassnacht has been a passenger for weeks now. No idea what he offers other than being vaguely okay at tracking back defensively, reminds me a bit of Rupp when he first joined us in the prem playing as a right winger… I’m sure there’s plenty of room and time for improvement but everything he does in possession right now just feels really ‘meh’ and nowhere near up to the standard needed if he is going to offer any kind of threat at this level…

Indeed. It's not exactly getting the juices flowing; need another gear.

Frustrating first 45, clearly the better team but lacking that final ball. Fasnacht and Idah peripheral, pleasantly surprised by Placheta.

Yeah I agree. He's diligent and has a nice touch but he doesn't seem to cause defenders any headaches.

This has got a Borja Sainz winner off the bench written all over it.

Couldn't quite tell from where I am but did we get lucky with a Duffy hand ball?

A real lack of quality. We've had a bunch of half openings but an inability to play a decent final ball or hit the target with the shot. It's really close to being very good, but Idah, Fassnacht and Placheta should be fringe players with a couple of better players in each position ahead of them.

I can't for the life of me work out why we don't play Rowe up top with Sara behind him and bring in another midfielder for Idah.

His hand was in a natural position so don't think even VAR would have given it

Then again with VAR its a coin toss

Agreed, I dont know why we couldnt of at least tried that at some point against Fulham the other night, instead of wasting the forward position on the hapless Hwang.

Agreed. D’Artagnan with a brace.

This has got 1-0 Birmingham written all over it, with their only shot on target all game.
