We really have an issue keeping clean sheets don’t we.

Problem that only really started when Rooney took over.

Liar

Rubbish. How many games have we won by 2 or more clear goals, in the last 5-10 years. Reckon it will be hardly any

Crowd are really getting behind Stoke now, this is when our inability to control the tempo will make things so much more difficult.

Somewhat inevitable away from home whoever you are in this sort of situation. We need to re-learn how to defend in such circumstances

Why are we not winning the second balls.
Feels like we are down to 10 men.

Stoke’s finishing very poor but Blues inability to get the ball and maintain possession is not helping. Feels very much like only a matter of time before Stoke score

We've not been great but but Stoke are passing it really well.... This isn't Swansea "passing for the sake of passing" nonsense, it's pretty direct but it's fast and every pass is where it needs to be.

This season I meant. With this squad. Agreed that we've been poor generally for some years. It's just where we are after years of neglect. But we started this season ok.

Not really. We’ve been on the end of it many times when the opposition just control the ball and take away all of our momentum. The more we have the ball the less chances they can create.

I don't mind people challenging what I say but there really is no need to be so rude (as well as inaccurate)

I wish we'd stop giving these corners. We're crap at defending them.

I was provoked

And you have admitted yourself you were lying

But it's more common with all teams when away from home. Not just us.
