Laughable post you think a well run in form club with a much better more athletic squad were there for the taking because their coach had to coach them from the stand giving instructions through his assistant. 
 
 
 
 

Yes! They were off their game not their usual self failing to even score like they do freely for while now. It was very clear they were off it tonight and it's no coincidence with him in the stand.

Soucek needed to be subbed earlier in hindsight and we really dont have any attacking midfielders who play centrally ( squad likitations ). Might be a case for sticking Magassa in the Soucek / no 10 role with Potts or Kante in the deeper role? I know he aint exactly blessed with greating shooting technique but when running at speed he’s a handful.  We aint really got a standout U21 for the number 10 role unless thats Earthy?

Bowen despite the rest was absolute shit and sadly when he has an off day we are always going to struggle.

Looks like we just haven’t got enough about us  to stay up. Wasted too many chances to beat the lesser teams and pissing away points too often.

Magassa was very good, yet someone has called him shit because he skyed one. 

Our most shots and touches in the opposition box all season so not that negative

there’s a case for bringing him on to sit in front of the defence and protect a lead but that’s it.
 
Wow, he has been running his socks off and had a great game tbf
 
 
 
When you’re sat in row Z and the ball hits your head that’s Magassa!
Needs to hit the target from 20yds!
You can't define his match performance down to that shot. Get a grip ffs

All they had to do was drop Taty in as the 2nd Striker doing the hard yards he's so good at and decent build up play he seems capable of with Wilson up top instead of the him.

Well in touch with Forest with enough games left.
If they lose tomorrow it's not the worst point.

Negative: Another missed opportunity.


 
 
 
so fucking MANY missed opportunities. Just Another we will look back on when we finish 18th by a point or goal difference.

A shame as the game was there to be won but too many of our big players looked a little off the pace. Felt like they were trying to force it. Beat Liverpool and it's all on again

Reality is we needed a win but got what was deserved which was a draw.  Just got to keep playing with the same effort and commitment. Both sides lacked the quality needed in the final third as reflected in the scoreline. 

No real complaints on players performance. Being very picky I felt Bowen who lost it by holding onto it too long or making the wrong decision but cannot failt his effort or commitment and attitude.  

Thought Magassa was excellent. Definitely a player there and on today’s performance stays ahead of Potts.  Kante did well on his cameo too.  

Onto Anfield and a hoodoo ground but they can be got at defensively this season. Lets hope we get some things go our way.

Good performance, 1 goal conceded in 4 games just a shame we didn’t have our shooting boots on.

yep - good form and we'll have a great first 11 at the end of this a season (tat will be flogged), but we're running out of games. We need to believe we can beat liverpool and city and villa. We're good enough in the form we're in.

We need a result at Anfield now.

Might suit us to go away and play on the break.

Too many players didn’t try hard enough in my opinion 

Could tell Summerville was going all out to make something happen, can’t say that about any of our other players

ANOTHER draw where we simply had to win. Unlucky but whatever.

Unless we can go to Liverpool and get 3 points we are done.

The wanker never fucking learns. Fancy leaving on the bench your best goalscoring Striker who started against the same opposition this season scoring twice against them. 💩 

Had to win that.

Some of our shooting tonight on numerous occasions has been piss poor.

We've made some cast iron chances and blown most of them over the fkg bar.

Very VERY frustrating.
