What were Mavro and Mukassa doing for the first goal? Where was our left back/left midfield for their second?
Our central midfield is too soft.
Kilman, Engels and Mavro were denied by the GK having 'one of those days'.
Fair result would have been a draw, but our central midfield needs strength.

Nunos the problem, sets the team up to keep it tight every week despite having the best players in the league. It was only a matter of time before a team had taken advantage of our slow passive starts, a few teams came close and were unlucky or just didnt quite have the quality to take advantage.
Shackles came off at 2 nil and suddenly we are creating chance after chance, pinging the ball around quickly for a change, unfortunately nothing quite fell our way, good last ditch defending, luck, and good goal keeping was all on their side today. Wher id say the opposite for us there deflections and chances all fell to the player in space.
We have Magassa, Alvarez, Orford who are all solid good holding/defensive midfields. Instead we persist to shoe horn the likes of Pablo and now Soucek into the team both of them cant trap a bag of cement and their second touch is usually a tackle. Also means Bowen and Solomon are much deeper arguably our 2 most creative/goal threats.
On a positive note at least hes realised Kante is not a holding midfielder yet. Took him long enough and plenty fans had pointed it out.

Spot on Al. And don't forget Areola who is by far a better shot stopper than Hermansen. This manager not only got us relegated, but it's plainly obvious he's inept at team selection, game management and overall tactics.
The quality of some players has so far made him look better than he is, but he will be found out. This is going to be a long season.

The worse case scenario is we get promoted with Nuno and then they keep him for another season meaning our first season back in the prem will technically be half a season until they realise he's a charlatan and sack him.

No decent goalkeeper should allow himself to be beaten like he was with second goal. Yes it was sweet hit but he should've turned it over.

Taty needs to start scoring goals, I know people don't like Pablo but for me at least he puts a shift in, play Pablo and piroe and drop taty and Solomon, one trick pony who runs down the wing and cuts back and is very readable!!
Austbo needs to be given a chance and a run of games, personally not sure Nuno is the man to take us forward so get him out and get Parker or Carrick in.

Pablo cost us €25 million. When he plays, he continuously gives the ball away, he loses nigh on every one on one duel, he often loses the ball when tackled, his off the ball positioning is questionable, he's a striker who doesn't know where the goal is and he commits fouls needlessly.
Never mind all that though; he runs around a lot like a headless chicken making pointless runs that amount to nothing, so let's play him instead of someone who can play football at this level.

Yeah, I have forgotten how many goals taty has scored to how many sitters he has had, they may aswell put one of us in as cannot do any worse with to one on one.

I can understand your criticism of Tatty, Bobby but playing up front on your own the way we set up is a thankless task. Yes Solomon has gone off the boil and give Austbo a chance but he is one of the only players who is having a go. Bowen does but it doesn't seem to happen till later in the game. Nuno took off Solomon and Makasa and brought on Souchek and Pablo no wonder we lost any impetus we had at that moment. Yes Pablo does work hard but he is pretty awful as a player. He and Souchek can play a role in the season but it should be a bit part.
We need to change the coach but sadly it won't happen with Kretinski or it will happen but not until it's too late. I wouldn't touch Parker with a barge pole I think McKenna or Bellamy. I'm not convinced by Carrick at all but he would be better than Nuno. We have played a few decent games this season but the only one that was a performance to be proud of was Wrexham. Derby was decent but couldn't score and Lincoln for 45 minutes was terrible.

Who said anything about playing Taty? The bloke isn't interested and is a prime candidate for the out tray. We need to acquire a striker in January, but what about Ajala? Where's the harm in developing this promising lad? He's got to be better than the useless runabout Pablo.

I agree that Nuno should be shown the door, we have looked good on 2 occasions this year, Wrexham and wolves.
I would still select Pablo and Piroe and at least Pablo makes a nuisance of himself which should free up piroe who is proven in this league. Taty we should have got rid, not interested and he's as good as Zaza at scoring goals.

Pablo is nonsense. He contributes nothing and could possibly be detrimental. A complete waste of a shirt which could go to another. If the clueless Nuno was not the manager, the bloke wouldn't deserve to get near a playing sheet in the EFL. ? Still, each to their own.

Id play Piroe with Mukasa as a 10 the Engels and Orford in the middle of the park as engels seems to play better with orford in the team
Pablo is dross and Taty will be gone anyway.

Exciting if Rob Edwards replaces Nuno.
