It was probably the worst team Brazil have ever taken to a World Cup

Real shame Pickford gave ‘em the pen, as he has been great tonight otherwise.

Different class and the pen was unfortunate. He’s been one shining light.

Tonight was always a big ask...Even bigger without James who we could have done with!!!

 

[maccavennie]

DCL has been awful tonight, token runs but never working their defenders

 

[Dunc's elbow]

is bernard really ex brazil international ?

Wasn’t he in the side that got thumped by Germany??

 

[Jimishorts]

It's like upgrading to an iPhone 12 Pro from a 1998 Nokia 3210 when you compare him to Iwobi.

Don’t get Adblock on a 3210 tho

I'd play King v Burnley. DCL will get bullied by Burnley Centre backs

 

[Bluepablo]

Right side is a real big problem. I know we all know it but really shown up tonight.

 

[Thomasc]

Meltdown commence

Don’t think anybody really expected anything once we saw the line up and bench

5th, game in hand, good run of games coming.

Lost the 4th toughest game of the season, took 4 pts from the two harder ones played already (2-0 at anfield, 3-3 at utd)

It is what it is. Cant get results in big games all teh time, not with this team.

Back to winning ways next game and all is fine.

9 pts from Liverpool A, Saints H, WBA A and Chelsea A is a good return

Another year goes on not winning at Stamford Bridge, thats becoming an embarassment.

It isnt those games that have cost us, we are all aware of the ones that have.

Spot on. They're in form, playing to the level they should be at - not the one Lampard had them playing at.

We've had injuries in a few key positions, which given our squad depth means we will always struggle.

We need to put this behind us and press on for the next and put it right. Still plenty to play for.

Pickford again. Encouraging if not of immediate utility.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Better team won, Chelsea were in third gear all game. Shame their goals came from our mistakes though.

 

[Fansince1988]

We won't be signing someone better than Dom

Well we need to to be challengers on all fronts, shame we had Lukaku to early he is the type of striker we need now.

 

[Amokachi1995]

It was always going to be a struggle tonight. Think we're running on fumes a bit. 5 days off now and hopefully fresh for Burnley.
