OK caught up..Phillips having a poor game, glad Bamford is off was having a stinker before the attack on the Charlton player.

Some wonderful Harrison touches including a lovely cross there..

One positive Ed will start next Tuesday. No doubt.

That was Costa's header wasn't it?

Problem is how many of these players have a good end product?

We are pushing Forshaw forward which says it all, he has many qualities but a goal or a creative spark isn't one of them.

Well the goals we concede are generally flukes, that s**t happens. The goals we can't score have a lot to do with the poorness of Bamford who should be close to double figures this season and lack of goals from central midfield ..

Struggling to answer that one. Compared to last season the players look very similar to me... there's the answer..

Inches wide, but I have saw enough for Ed to lead the attack but we just arent good enough today.

Nketiah shot got enough of a deflection to take it wide, not really a missed scuffed shot the commentators would have you believe...Not sure if the commentators have a screen to watch or they're trying to commentate from live view but they've got stuff wrong all game

Would have scored had the defender not gotten a touch

No surprise for me today. I had Charlton 2-1 winners. We seem to have lost a spark.....I'm sure that we will be accused of being negative by some on here, but in my opinion it's called being realistic. Massive improvement required, if not we will be lucky to finish top six!

Agreed, it sounds like they see what we see.

Harrison has the room to shoot but takes himself into a wide angle and it sails over.

Goes without saying but be honest, our attack is not even championship standard and the rest of the team probably know it. Mid table this team and fortunate at that.
