there is relief when we dont lose . but what many people dont realise is we need to WIN !!!! we need THREE points !!!!!!!!!! , one point is hardly better than losing .

bunn 6 at fault with the goal hutton 6 also at fault - doesnt get the ball in the air chester 8 good baker 9 almost faultless amavi 2 shocking - 25million??? jedinak 2 shocking westwood 7 good - and i am not a fan of his! bacuna 5 hardly in it ayew 3 awful grealish 7 good - was missed kodjia 4 includes 2 for his pen otherwise awful mcormack 6 not bad adoma 7 dangerous gestede 5 little use we could have won , which is astonishing with 4 players i rate under 5 .

no predictions but agreed otherwise. ayew usually doesnt turn up til the second half , so it makes sense to bench him first half .

great video thanks.

agreed -- could you give us a list please?

watching the highlights again , i think hutton was at fault for the goal and at other times . i like hutton but he is the weaker defender. aywe actually ran forward into space for the second goal and put in a good cross , mccormack took an age to control and shoot. i hope bacuna gets a run in midfield , he is looking much better now. but SB has to find a way to capitalise on kodjia.

we havnt been a cohesive unit since MON left us . i am impressed with bruce so far , preferring baker to elphick , dropping underperformers , trying different selections , it cant be easy with this ramshackle squad .

good to see bacuna getting somewhere . we should perhaps remember he hasnt had much of a run as a midfielder at all , it takes time to settle into that role . and we have a great partnership in chester and baker - as bruce was a CB himself i think , he should know .

pleased to hear baker was good again , and bunn by the sound of it . if we can keep goals against down - we may just scrape through .

i didnt see it , very good to win , sounds as if it could have gone either way . we are playing like a mid table team - in the championship. we have to improve , or get some better players , to have any chance of going up.

yes , i remember a saying "gone for a burton" - dont know its meaning..

our present table position doesnt really matter -- the season end does.

bit over the top ? burton are no pushover at all , their results belie their capability. we are nothing special at present , relying on kodjia mainly for individual efforts . i dreamt last night we had lost 4-1 !!!

i think your team prediction will play out ok . but predictions are tricky - especially the future.

i think it will be bunn again , and gardner not mcormack

we certainly need more than we have now. the way we are playing means we are about mid table . we will stay there unless we improve considerably.

mostly agree , we dont do much football , kodjia , adohma and aywe are just individuals . i am hoping agbon will get fitter and do a useful job in january , mcormack doesnt look up for it , baker and chester immense.

with you on baker , many years ago i posted somewhere he was our best CB , to much derision . when listening to /watching the games , ive lost count of the times they say " cleared away by baker" weve had our best results when he's played , and bruce is clearly very impressed with him , to leave elphick out , so full marks to bruce also. he could still play for england , jagielka and cahill are not that good .

hahahahaha
