We did very well getting back into that, Norwich look good at top end of pitch, but look dodgy at the back when we press them high.

Thoughts…
Dabo a liability at the back

Arsenal lad good player

Robins needs to earn his money at half time. Go to a back three and get some width on he left?

Palmer really needs to take some
responsibility when taking a shot.

My bowels have opened so thanks to everyone with there support.

Norton Cuffey has no defensive ability at all so I can’t see how we would ever play a back 3 with him as wing back Dabo hadn’t done that bad but it’s a real struggle he looks like pace has gone

Midfield poor as well - hamer having worst game for a while and Palmer just not moving enough. Allen has done the gritty stuff and sheaf ok

odd game they could have been out of sight

Enjoy this SBT: Jamie Allen is having a good game.

Dabo at CB is and always had been a Fucking liability. If we want to keep with three at the back we need to bring Panzo on.

Much better after the first twenty mins. We desperately need to get it into everyone’s heads to get in the fucking box though. The amount of time it’s one man or even none when we’ve got the ball out wide and the midfield is just jogging up.

BNC looks a threat to be fair

Until he releases the ball. Needs to drive into the box more, he’s grown into the game though. Just needs better decision making.

Norwich insistence to play into trouble needs to be punished. Our decision making still wrong. 5 mins ago ball played out to BNC and gyokeres takes it off him. Leave it vik and get in the fucking middle

Not convinced. For someone who’s rated highly offensively he’s not been as impressive as hoped. He’s been involved in a few good attacks and made the wrong call.

Equally his pace and willingness to get forward is a positive and he has shown some good signs.

By no means writing him off, confident he’ll become an asset.

Was Palmer on close up, who cares.

Looks like 5 at the back at times with Dabo tucking in alongside Rose and Doyle. Worry with Rose and Doyle there could be more goals in this for Norwich

Dabo off for Panzo and don’t go crazy at the start of the half and I think we will get another goal, just need norton-cuffy to be tracking back a bit more because dabo has to keep coming over to cover him when we switched to 3

Good fightback and I'm sure we can score more but defence so dodgy. Back 5 I think Panzo for Dabs and hopefully the lad Cuffy can show his fitness in a wing back role.

His positioning is dreadful. Dabo was right to give him a rollicking. A lot to learn.

-CB has to be the absolute priority this week. (Defence needs major surgery in the summer)

-The Wilson contract looks a poor decision

-Sorry Dabs but you need a rest. Panzo scares me too so unsure of options at HT

It's Palmer’s goal.

Gyokeres foot is nowhere near the ball at the moment it's struck

Robins needs to tell Vik that if we are playing Cuffy, get into the box and stop going out wide.
He drifts wide far too often generally. If his decision making improves he will improve a lot and get more goals IMO.

To be fair, what a game so far. Both teams are dodgy at the back. More goals in this.
