yep 100% Poyet's fault. Not sure what he set the side up to do. All play through middle or the ball kicked from the sideline form an angle that created zero danger.

I agree that Gus got it wrong tonight, but not sure how he can be blamed for our players constantly passing to yellow shirts?

Simple really. Set the team up such that there was no width and pack the centre made it very hard to play the passing game. There was limited space and this ended up with the player in procession with very limited options. Too many times we attempted intricate passes and so lost the ball. One person to blame and he admitted that after the game. Why change a formula/tactics which have served us well. It made the team look like they have never played together before.
