First half:
Positive points;
1) Lovely passing movement
Negative points;
1) Earnshaw's finishing
2) A very debatable penalty
3) Playing 4-5-1 starved Earnie of any service and it showed, further more, the Earnie looked to me as if he was crying out to have someone like Chris Sutton alongside him.
Second half:
Very unimpressive and uninspiring to say the least. We failed to recover from going 1-0 down and seemed prepared to play out the rest of the game.
Huckerby looked a lost man.
Conclusion: Some moments of optimism, but the second half problem showed that there are problems that urgently need to be dealt with.
