My first half thoughts.

Unfortunately consistent faults are in full view, especially giving the ball away, not looking after the ball well and rarely winning a 50/50 challenge. Again AS is unable to convert from a good scoring opportunity. Defensively we look vulnerable and are getting exposed too easily.
At best we play a very hopeful ball into a space or too frequently pass to them! The penalty resulted from us giving the ball to them when we were in the attacking third. We need to be looking for shorter balls to feet and movement. Millwall are simply getting bodies behind the ball and we aren’t finding a way of passing and moving through them. Next goal is absolutely crucial if they get it game over, if we can score - who knows.

Even the biased Robins TV commentator is on the same page now ‘an aimless, very hopeful ball played forward their by Vyner; City need to do much more than that’

Upside: some of the younger players are clearly our best personnel, which at least gives you a little hope.

Downside: Not quite everything else, but the vast majority.

This Millwall team are not good, and aren’t even seemingly playing that intensely, yet even with 25 mins left, I struggle to see us getting an equaliser.

Bad times.

They are not though. That’s the thing 

We got plenty of talent on the bench or frozen out. For whatever reason

Depends how much freedom he has this month in bringing new players in. 

Judging by those accounts….I’m going to say very little

Weimann has 10 goals, Scott at least having a pop, Semenyo always tricky. Can find a way.

You are optimistic, I haven’t seen a shot on target yet in the second half.

I’d imagine very little.

My biggest worry after seeing those accounts isn’t who we can get in, but which young players might be gobbled up for less than they should, as we have little leeway to hold on to them.

Maybe. But I’ve seen a lot of those not playing on the pitch this season and wasn’t that impressed by them.

Not saying our kids our world beaters, but thinking big picture; at least some of the young players might end up solid squad players for us, or at least fetch decent coin if we go down.

Millwall just doing what many of the solid championship sides seem able to do when ahead. Play the %s, keep it tight and we’ll organised, and hope to nick another at some stage. At the moment it is looking easy enough for them.

edit…as I was saying…:laugh:.
