I don't think any player produced an above average performance and there were too many that performed below average on the day.

That's how it's been for the past few months too.

Too many passengers.

Someone or two need to step up.

Besic must have been fit if he was included on the bench. He has probably been our most consistent player this season and today we missed his ability to close down and intercept. He organises well and encourages those players around him too. I don't understand why he didn't start the game.

Think he had flu or something

 

[samZ]

I can't understand the reason for playing Baines on the left in midfield. Unless this is Long term option then why bother for one game.

Don't the pro's know about Lemsips like?

 

[The Equaliser]

'Not good enough' would be a massive understatement.

What's our motto again ?

Supporters can see what is wrong, pundits can see it, other managers can see it. Everyone, in fact, except the one man who can do something about it.

Stop having us defending like Wigan or move on.

I think some of them overdosed on them the way we played

I thought Kone was very good.

A concoction of Lemsip, Happy shopper Cherryade and some horse tranquilisers would explain it.

Coleman played for 10 mins in the middle of the second half like he had concussion.

 

[Khalekan]

Agree with a lot of this. In the 40+ years I've been watching the Blues there gave been far too many low points and whilst our current situation is massively frustrating, it's not the worst we've been through. I do however, think Martinez needs to shake things up and I honestly think he should start with his coaching staff and I include Ferguson in this as I have yet to see what if any positive effect he us having except the pre-match video highlights.

To be fair, it always looked a strange appointment.

Duncan Ferguson's style of play on the pitch would have been total anathema to Bobby.....totally alien to his much derided "philosophy".

I imagine any advice Duncan would be giving him re attacking play would go in one ear and out the other.

 

[The Equaliser]

I thought Kone was very good.

Refreshing wasn't it, seeing the CF making imaginative runs and trying to get on the end of things.

Then Rom comes on and runs the opposite way to a through ball to him AFTER it was played, lol.

Martinez let them had Christmas Eve and morning off and a load of them went to the Albert Dock to celebrate Christmas.

Don't know if they were wrecked or on beak like, but still.
