diabolical second half performance, still can't seem to have a solid 90 minutes but we are back in the top 4 again:)

Must say that display from Livermore was as bad as I have ever seen from him

Ohh, and Sandro's a fucking hero. A lesser man would have raised his hands there.

is this the ultimate con? is avb trying to better players like sandro by putting them in the pressure cooker? if so.. genius, hats off.

They do say a sign of a good team is winning when you are playing shit but there are definite area's for improvement.

They say it, but it's bullshit. The sign of a good team is that most games they play well and they win!

A game of two halves seems to be the theme of the season. Extremely worrying that we seem incapable of putting in a solid 90 minute performance. Is it fitness, mentality or both?

On this showing Friedel must be replaced. Poor distribution and hoofs the ball when he could have passed to relieve some pressure

Thank fuck for that. Our second half display was awful. Please AVB don't take off a midfielder that can actually keep the ball and replace with Livermore ever again. Please. It's not a coincidence that swapping Hudd for Livermore turned 2-2 into 2-3 last week and 0-2 into 1-2 today.

I'm not Livermore bashing but the entire balance of our team is lost with him and Sandro as the two CDMs.

Time for a rest for Walker too. Too clumsy in possession.

Sandra took a bullet! What a quality player. Livermore just needs to stay on the bench, always, for the under 21's team. Be gone!!

Very good three points but it has to be said we were utterly clueless second half and rode our luck massively.. squad is looking VERY thin at the moment..

Thank fu*k for that, awful awful 2nd half performance.

Only 1 player showed up for us in the 2nd half and that was the Messiah Sandro.

I would say bring on the Jan window but the likelihood of us actually doing anything productive in it is slim. A quality centre mid is imperative as Huddlestone and Livermore are utter rubbish.
