From the sublime to the ridiculous. Excellent 1st half, with Swifty running the game; then Walker has a howler, heads go down as a man; Clements sits on his hands for ten minutes instead of changing it immediately (he has to go-that 2nd half was a disgrace) and to cap it all we just aren't fit enough.
IMHO:
Walker 2: An absolute howler on the 1st goal-killed it for us-don't want to see him again.
Gunter 5: He was OK-until he decided to sit down in the penalty area.
Yiadom5: Excellent 1st half-then 2nd half he was absolutely knacked-what's the problem ?
Ilori 5: Did nothing wrong-yet we shipped four goals.
Moore 5: Ditto. But TBF, one incredible interception to save a certain goal.
Ezad 5: Started well then fell apart under fatigue and stopped doing his job.
Bacuna 7: Our best player over both halves; at least he kept going.
Swift 5: 9/10 1st half-then looked as if he was running through treacle in the 2nd-what are the fitness team doing ?
Blackett 5: Oh dear-his favoured position-left of a three, but just devoid of any concentration.
Mc nUlty 3: An absolute passenger; one exquisite pass to Meite 1st half , but whoever originally coached him has badly let him down-despite his speed, he just does not know the areas to run into.
Meite 4: Cant fault him for effort-but there is just zero quality.
I left after the 4th goal went in-along with hundreds of others. I have never left so early before.
Ref: No problems-except Ilori's booking for throwing the ball way was so inconsistent-payers do this all the time and nothing is done.
Disappointed with Brom-if we were half fit, with a decent goalie; we could have nicked something there.
Enjoyed the day; until that 2nd half.
I still don't think we will go down-but it is going to be nick and tuck until next May.
