Just watched the highlights

We had more chances than it seemed at the time and probably could have got a point but recurring themes from all of their dangerous spells/moments:

1. Our defensive line dropping very deep.

2. Dorrans and Mulumbu both getting caught wrong side of the ball and then clearly not having the legs to get back, even from about 5 minutes into the game. Whoever thought they were good to go again after Tuesday wants shooting.

3. Either one of their attackers dropping deep or one of their midfielders breaking forward to operate in the acres of space between our midfield and defence caused by 1 and 2 above. On several occasions they had players receiving the ball on the edge of our box with nobody within 6 yards of them.

4. Brady making pathetic efforts to challenge and then just jogging back having left Olsson massively exposed. Every so often Brady has a half decent game like Tuesday and I think I've been too harsh on him but he is really p**sing me off this season.

5. Olsson was left exposed but he also gives up too easily these days, often falling to the ground if he feels he's been nudged then b***hing and moaning at the officials whilst play goes on around him rather than doing his job. I feel he, as much as anyone is often a barometer of how morale is in the squad. when its good, he's good, when its bad his head seems to go.
