This season we seem to be treating the first half of matches as part of the warm-up, then start playing in the second half

Keep the score low in the first half and we know we'll run rampant in the second. As has been said, the fitness of the squad is incomparable to previous seasons. We can run and run for not just 90 mins but well beyond that, something Forest, Reading and no doubt other teams coming to the CBS will attest to.

Overall it was a very professional performance even the first half we limited them despite nor offering alot .

sheaf was great in the second half he dominated midfield

the one issue really is we see totally reliant on Gyokeres scoring every week

Think that was Sheaf's most effective performance in a Sky Blue shirt so far. He's growing into the position, buoyed by the confidence in the whole team.

I think if you presented Walker with both chances today he'd have taken them to be fair. It's more what Gyo can create out of nothing that we struggle to get out of the others, Hamer excluded
Not convinced he would be there to take them. Certainly don't think he would have scored nine by now and he can't hold the ball like Gyokeres.

Wouldn't have 9 but think he'd have taken both of Gyo's from today. He isn't the type of player who creates something out of nothing but only Gyo and Hamer in this side are

Think fans were rightly on their backs in the first half, even though it wasn’t toxic or even intense. I’m sure Robins will have told them at HT that it was because we know they’re capable of better.

We looked like we approached it as a cup game, too much respect, gifting them the ball, unnecessary rushed decisions. They absolutely hated it when we got in behind them, they couldn’t deal with it. Hyam better second half, Dabo better second half, and Kelly and Sheaf finally clicked.

I was going to say there was no reason to be booing, but your justification that people know we’re capable of more- actually makes a lot of sense.

Unbelievable. I just can’t believe what is happening to this club. We really can’t get greedy though, might seem negative after this start but even a mid-table finish would be a brilliant season. The fact that we can even be dreaming of the play-offs is just incredible
