All this blaming Muric, the defenders are absolutely shambolic... Three point blank saves in a row and still nobody picks up the header...

It's not Muric's fault they're winning every single first header.

Three very good saves. Defence has collapsed.
Defence has never collapsed, it's basically been rubbish all season.

It's just that most teams at this level aren't very good.

It seemed the only person reacting in the box was THB. Everyone else just seems to be stood watching. It's bonkers.

Both are true today, absolutely.

Muric cannot claim a cross to save his life though, it’s a bit of a requirement when you’re a goalkeeper.

It has been glaringly obvious for some time how to play us. High press and balls into the box. We appear to have neither the desire or ability to deal with this threat.

Muric has not been any worse today than the four jokers in front of him, and that string of saves there has arguably nudged him above a couple of them.

The defence - collectively - has completely bottled this.

We have got away the last few games against teams who can't attack that well. Shef Utd just hammered home our defensive frailties. If we don't have the ball we don't look like soaking up pressure. A seive is let's less through

Well, well. Gutted but not surprised. This fiasco has been on the cards for weeks, and maybe it's good to suffer this setback now (rather than next weekend) so that VK realises something has to be done or else kiss goodbye to promotion push. Rovers will be salivating watching this performance.

Let's hope it doesnt get worse today. Could end up 5 or 6 like this.

The muric bashing is just nonsense. He has defenders and midfielders in front of him to win headers second balls and drop downs,, we just have not done that today. In the second half they have chased harder been sharper and wanted it more.

Big wake up call today at how easy we've been to score against, and for all our good attacking play if we don't sort out our issues at the back then we may not yet win promotion.
