I don't think anyone covered themselves in glory last night and TBH, I blame Poch. Not proactive enough in changing things and his subs were just weird.
Ideally he'd have brought Soldado on with Lennon and given us some extra width, failling that, do the same subs but switch Townsend to the left and push Kane up with Soldado so that we can aim some crosses in - there was very little threat down our right, so Walker could've easily played more of a winger role on that side. It was far too narrow and stayed narrow.
Ultimately a pretty poor/lacklustre performance from the players, but Poch has to get better at changing things that are clearly not working.
