Telling Gallagher to jump would be a start.

Wasn't on the keeper this one. Let's be fair.

Expand  

Didn’t say it was but it shows that our weaknesses go well beyond a dodgy keeper 

The coaching is non existent it seems 

[joey_big_nose]

Cheap set piece goal to concede which is frustrating as we looked solid in open play...

Sure we will score again. But can we avoid conceding?

[duckson]

Hudds the better team for most of the half, Garrett and the new lad not offering a great deal, Sammie off the pace.

It's now been 12 games since we've kept a clean sheet - 25th November away to Stoke.

I would say, God they must be sh*t, but no doubt they’ll do us at Ewood in a couple weeks.

Chrisene looks athletic and occupies good space, but his touch/decisions are a bit off. Obviously he’s young and probably a touch nervous starting his first game, but can see him contributing.

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

Villa loanee scared to do anything.

[Bethnal]

VAR gives that.

[K-Hod]

I have absolutely no idea how that isn’t a penalty on Gallagher. But then minutes later, of course Szmodics is offside 🫠.

[booth]

Referee's a bell end.

It's a pretty blatant penalty.

He's a LB being asked to play AML. 

At least he's a willing runner. 

[Exiled_Rover]

LOL gives Tronstad a yellow for less of a foul than the penalty he refused to give.

Where do they find these clowns?

I think they were playing zonal marking - you're not asking Pickering to mark their most dangerous header. He just beat Gallagher to the ball.

Expand  

You can play zonal but have their most dangerous header of the ball be man-marked by your best defensive header of the ball. It's unacceptable for it to end up being reliant on Pickering in that situation.

[booth]

A clear foul on Garrett, a clear foul on Gallagher. Tronstad fouls once and gets carded. Fucking imbecile referee.

A foul on SS, nothing.

[K-Hod]

Tronstadt and Wharton seemed determined to give Hudds a goal then.

Thank God their attacker was absolutely gash.

[moerpho]

Pheew….that should be Hudds ahead

[Bethnal]

Some bollocks on a player having that shit of a barnet when he misses open goals like that.

[B16Rover]

How's he missed that 

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

Jesus - Huds should gave scored.  Big let off

George Courtney reincarnated

[Bethnal]

Not even sure what we’re asking Garrett to do here. Seems very Harry-Redknapp-saying-“Just fucking run about a bit.”

Villa fans say he's a better CM than LB. So AML shouldn't be too much of a stretch if he is suited to both those other positions. I'd put it down to being new and inexperienced for now.

He's also not playing AML
