Shades of our 2-2 draw when Wallace scores in the 96th minute.

We’re down on our luck, struggling for bodies, and nobody expects anything other than a pummelling.

Believe.
We'll get another chance, that's why we need to stick in, they don't exactly look watertight at the back.

Very unlucky with all 3 of their goals today. We would beat them on another day. I still think tarks would have cut out so many of their opportunities....

We're wide open down the left.
They're scared of Bardsley and know Pieter is slow.

I remember Knockaert turning our defence in our own box against Brighton a few years ago in a similar fashion. You just can't commit two or three players to a man when they do that.

So many good things early on ruined by shocking defending and then an own goal. They can smell blood and we look totally lost now.

Love Brownhill. After giving the ball away runs back and takes out Vardy with that block.

I'm turning this off, I don't know why but I'm getting unusually wound up by tonight's game much more than usual. No offence to him personally, but I think the realisation that after 5 years of dry powder the best we have is a 35 year old Phil Bardsley at right back is upsetting. And also a joke.

I do think we can get another goal on the break. We look nice and creative up front.

Sadly though I can see us shipping another 2 before we get that 2nd goal

Tough game for him to get his premier league debut. But I agree, at 22 I think he doesn't look out of place.

So relegation battle this year which many felt was on the cards as it is most years,
If we did go down the rebuilding job would be massive - no pope - tarky - Taylor - wood - Westwood - MCNeil all would go for money but still hard to replace

Couldn't agree more. I knew we were going to get pumped today so I've been particularly watching our back 4, Dunne and Taylor have held the line well, Long is always 2-3 yards in front of them and Bardo has been 2-3 yards behind them - so the organization hasn't been spot on for sure

FWIW I think we've done ok given the circumstance of having half a team missing and I think Dunne has done more than enough to put the Worrall transfer to bed
