This with bells on.
For all of those who think we don’t need Dunk, you saw precisely why we do need him today.
No organisation at the back, when the pressure came. Just sheer panic.

It definitely was obvious how much we missed Dunk. But a large part of the issue was tactical. I’m not sure how much Dunk would’ve improved that, to be honest, as the issues were in other areas of the pitch.
His passing/possession game missed as we ceded possession with ease.
Sure, but you have to communicate on the pitch, if the other team change things, leadership was lacking as soon as Welbeck went off.
And if bloody Veltman ‘flops’ again I’ll go mad…… For fecks sake stand-up man, you’re not getting free-kicks and just play everyone onside

Wow some people really need to get a grip with the over reaction. I know we're all gutted and yes it was a complete balls up with the 4 on 1. However, to start writing him off at this stage is ridiculous.

It is amazing that for a marquee signing he’s now behind Baleba, Ayari and Hinshelwood judging by Fab’s recent picks and may likely go one place back further when O’Riley joins the fray. All it’s left now is for Moder to overtake him. I don’t know the answer - loan in January?
Agree, and he was fine at Newcastle and held the shape really well……. Which is precisely what he should have been doing today…..
At this stage I would say it is a long way back…..
Feel sorry for him, because it was such a howler

Exactly. Total loss of awareness of the situation.

Actually it was six players bombing forward. Mind boggling lack of game management.
I’m more disappointed on letting a team with one point give us a football lesson for almost half the game. At home.

Yep. Can blame Weiffer all we like but clear cut chances are often missed. We piled forward like a junior football game. Couldn’t believe it.
Veltman looked clueless against the player they brought on at half-time.
He was simply too quick.
O’Neill changed the game with his subs, they took over the midfield and controlled things.

I’m actually embarrassed by some of our fan base.
I’m sure they will be back here in the weeks / months ahead praising the guy.
Shambles.
If you can’t support our players during the tough times then f*** off.

Nobody can defend him today and it's not his 1st mistake which has cost us
This 100%.
Stunningly poor football from the team. Any other team apart from Southampton leaves the defensive set up in place, to take the three points. Even for Arteta and Guardiola, that’s football basics.

Weve thrown 2 points away totally unavoidably, why shouldn't we be angry ? This is a fans forum. Anyone who went today will be fuming, and justifiably so.

Shit mistake but not going to write off a player after a handful of games. Clearly needs a run of games.

What were the other ones?
If it had just been Ferguson, it would have been game over
maybe he thought he had blurred vision . . . .
I agree, 4 players ploughing forward like that was lads up thre park stuff.
a poor decision by FH to make late subs when all we needed was to kill the tempo and see the game out. Some poor on field decisions by multiple players.
as usual people have to have a scape goat, and given Webster's injured and Ferguson scored, this weeks winner is MW.
