A song of blue and white- the call of the bluebird

I think the lads looked tired, probably from the effort they've been putting in lately and in particular that second half with ten men on Saturday.

Just shows the squad definitely needs strengthening and Andre hopefully gets to know soon enough who's not good enough. I found it strange that Koroma never came on. I don't think Mr Bojangles is gonna be good enough. Let's hope Healey does when he gets back.

The passing and movement was poor, which meant we ended up passing along the back line again too much. It all looked very slow and laboured. Hope for better on Sunday.

Yeah that was a poor performance compared to what we saw on Saturday.
I thought Burgzorg was our best player on the night. Lots of tracking back and got into good positions going forward, although his final pass wasn't good enough.
Ward looked a shell of the man who scored twice v Watford.
Wiles looked really poor again. Don't think i've seen him have a good game yet.
Headley looked a real danger when he came on.
Overall though, very poor performance.

Thing is though. I don't want Burgzorg defending. I just wanna see him running at them with the ball.

Did you see that Cardiff lad trying to get Headley sent off? Disgraceful.

Wiles looked brilliant (for him) at West Brom and might have had one good game since then a few weeks back. If he plays on Sunday he needs to get his finger out. He doesn't look like £1m well spent so far. Yes this was Town back at their "like watching paint dry" worst that Moore managed to drag out of them almost every match. Can't afford many more performances like this one.

The one thing I'd say is we had more efforts than under Moore, it was the lack of intensity that was missing which was the issue. He didn't try sugar coating it, we need to keep the intensity of the first two games in charge.

The concerns for me, is that after all this time rudoni still fluffs his chances in the final third more often than not. Ward was back to being ward. Bojan needs a fair bit of time in English football and a back three of helik, lees and Pearson struggle to pass wind let alone a football. But then again we've known this for a long time, the sooner balker is fit to play the better. But I will admit I'm concerned about his injury record.

Ben wiles i just don't get. Four managers, all getting the same out of him. Is a big concern for the rest of the season and the future

Just going back to this, defensively the three I mentioned, I've absolutely no issue with, especially helik and Pearson, lees is prone to a mess up, going forward, if we are to persist with three at the back then we need rid of one of lees or Pearson long term and another in the style of balker in order to make it truly viable, could ayina be that guy, I don't know really yet.

On bojan, I think for the time being he needs to be in a front two and probably playing at home. He's shown glimpses of what he can do and maybe a goal is what's needed. Definitely a summer of strength and conditioning though.

For rudoni, I'm at a loss, the endeavour is there, as it is with kasumu, but I don't think I'd back them to score. Although going forward I think kasumu at right back/wing back is a good option with headley and Spencer as options on the other side. Maybe even put Spencer back into cb like he's done a few times this season as a long term transition.
