    I don’t mind us playing long, but I hate those pointless balls to nobody. Far too many times we just punt the ball without even looking to no one. Not even a 50/50. Mowett is the worst for it. We need a bit more composure, look up and try to pick someone out not just hit long for sake of it to open space.

    It was a desperately disappointing performance last night from a few. I know their all young lads but you could see the nervousness of most of our players in the 1st half. It's a massive chance missed.
    I feel that could be it for us now in this tie. I'm not saying that we aren't capable of going to Swansea and winning, but in my heart of hearts, I just can't see us going there and scoring more than one and keeping a clean sheet. Hope to be proved wrong but just cant see it.

    Me and a mate were saying exactly the same last night. Don’t mind the direct stuff when you can see what they are trying to do!

    Also agree about Mowatt, another conversation from last night as it goes. I will say in his defence he is probably just doing as he’s been told. But when we do get the ball down and play on the left hand side with him and Styles linking up with either Woodrow or Morris we look really dangerous, which adds to frustration when we’re hoofing it I suppose.
