Yep. I think that’s on him. Should’ve come away with a point minimum.

Suprised we didnt see Baleba instead of Weiffer

Baleba got a knock against Wolves - that’s why he was subbed and he didn’t play against Liverpool in the week or start today

TBF, Baleba at 50% fitness with one leg, is a better than Wieffer!!
Ayari reminds me of Buonanotte - and not sure he is an ugrade either.

Tbf, against Utd he brought on 3 attacking players in the last 5 minutes and we won..
Ayari and Hinshelwood were both superb in midfield today.

Not so much the subs players on the pitch have to deal with the momentum shifts in games in a more professional manner. The best teams can take the sting out the game without making changes.
On viewing he got our line up right today and tactically we were very good. We should have been 3 up at half time. They were always going to be better 2nd half they are just a very good side at the moment.

Don’t criticise Weiffer. Apparently it’s not allowed on here anymore
Ayari was immense.
Can you share what subs you would have made on 60 mins?

Gruda for Rutter, don't think he had a good game today, seemed slightly off it and got caught on the ball consistently (before he then lost it and failed to win it back/yellow card foul for their second goal).
Adingra for Kadioglu, he had played pretty well but it felt like we needed a new attacking outlet, we were under the cosh and couldn't get out. Mitoma wasn't having much luck and it was getting too predictable always going down his side.
Baleba for either Ayari or Hinshelwood, we needed more energy in the middle, they'd both put a big shift in. Not sure if Baleba is injured or not, he was named on the bench so assume he had some minutes in him.
What I certainly wouldn't have done is being Wieffer on when chasing a game. Completely devoid of confidence, has shown zero attacking threat. Moder and Ferguson seemed strange too, I can sort of understand Ferguson because we might have somehow been able to fashion a chance that fell to him, but once all the subs had come on we looked completely sterile.
If he was determined to bring Wieffer on, then when we were 0-1 up would have made more sense.

their first (lucky) goal came just before the usual first sub window, annoyingly. We might have squeezed Wieffer and Lamptey on for Rutter and Ferdi between their two goals, in hindsight.
In what way? They are entirely different players
The first half we didn`t just equal them we did to them what they normally do to other teams , that`s why it is so bloody soul destroying to come out in the second half with no plan for them coming at us , as we ALL knew would happen .
No real plan was set for subs as i can see , who the hell makes a substitution on 87 minutes unless their winning ? . Yes i know he had the first half covered but the second was just like waiting for the inevitable , the bench was scarce but why put Carlos there if he was never going to be used ? .

Great, but yet again, we didn't hold on to a lead ?

Waited too long today while we were being battered.
But also got it so right first half.
Odd game
