Were either of the players you mentioned causing problems in the lead up to them coming off? was anyone? Bulut puts on Tanner, who people call for regularly on here when we need that forward thinking impetus, And Colwill, who has done very well the last few times he has come on around the same time during a game, And Wintle as the insurance in front of the back 3. I wouldn't say that Bulut was taking a risk with those three players, in fact, it could be seen as a positive move. The fact that the three of them were complete shite and offered the sum of zero isn't really the managers fault. That's three players who couldn't adapt or make an impact. We can blame the manager when he deserves to be blamed, on this occasion i don't think he does.

Could not agree more. Take the bloody game by the scruff of the neck. Show some intent. Same as Watford. 2 teams in woeful form when we played them. Played them both back into form over the course of 90 mins.

Dust has settled now and I put it down to a bad day at the office. Subs could have been better, I wouldn’t have taken Robbo off, and I would have changed Romeo, but the players have to take some responsibility.

On the bright side, even when we lose,we usually score 2. And we tend to win and perform well more than we lose and perform badly, so I’m not too bothered. Such an improvement on the past 5 odd years.

Siopis had an off day, and Erol will sort them out. Just a shame there’s a break, you wanna play again asap after a game like this.

Romeo for who? Adams? Or changed the shape?

Come January we need a right back. Romeo is league one standard no offense to him.

Quite.

He should have come off as he was a liability and Norwich clearly targeted that side, but for who?

How the hell does Grant stay on. He produces nothing. We watched them waltz around from start to finish apart from a certain period in the first half. There for the taking and failed again. That said they gave us more trouble than I can recall any other side at home this season.

Adams aftwr an hour. Against tires legs, surely better bet than Romeo who didn’t look fit enough to play 90

It was poor on Bulut’s part when is it SO obvious to everyone including the opposition obviously.

Did he think that the problem would just go away?

Hindsight is wonderful

I would have stuck panzo on but if we still had lost he would have had stick for not doing what he done.

Conflicted on this game as it was obvious Romeo was struggling

Robinson looked tired to me before he came off, had given the ball away a couple of times and was out of position when Norwich had the ball. I wasn't surprised when he came off. I don't get the Bowler sub though.

That's harsh, none of them were worldbeating when they came on but at 2-1 Tanner and Colwill combined well with Colwill putting a great ball across the goal which neither Grant nor Meite went for. It was an easy tap in and should have been game over, but neither seem to have that killer instinct to go for those balls across. It was a theme yesterday and has been a few times this season where a winger has put the ball across the goal but nobody's gone for it, it's clearly a tactic because we do it so often but for whatever reason the forwards rarely seem to be alert to it.

Wintle really is a step down from Ralls & Siopis, that own goal was ridiculous, but he completely lacks any kind of dynamism or a change of pace. I think we'll be looking for a midfielder in January

Yeah, fair enough, I was being harsh. Didn't make the impact required would be more suited. I still don't think that it's the managers fault that they didn't do what was required while they were out there, and the same for the players who were already on the field of play. What can he do when players aren't doing the basics correctly or not adapting too a turn in play?He can make the necessary changes, which he did, and it's worked well previously. Not yesterday. Forget about it is my opinion.

Adams at right back was the most lost I’ve ever seen a footballer at this level, thank god he didn’t decide to do that. As somebody noted though in another thread, he could have switched things up to give Romeo some help on that side, it didn't get any better with bringing Tanner on like for like.
