Brilliant! Ball with a nice flick on and that's a real striker's finish! Excellent from Hooper.

And we scored from a corner! Much excite.

Davila is surprisingly quick off the mark though

We are the worst in the league at defending near the 6 yard box, every time a ball goes in there you think theyll score

i really don't understand how we're so bad at defending in the box, surely that should be DeVere and Taylor's strength?

Our defensive mindset it just absolutely woeful. How can they allow City so much space even in the final third?

No urgency or pressure whatsoever. Been asking for that goal really

our defence is pretty crap at defending and playing out. Might need to win games 5-4 this year

Things are fast getting to crisis point with that defence. You can't be conceding week after week like that and expect to be anywhere other than bottom of the table.

Both of our fullbacks get keeping turned inside out, poor positioning defensively.

dms and left mid nowhere on defence

That is a cracking goal....

But our shape is all wrong at the back. Our LB is too central, so Piscopo is playing wider allowing Galloway to cut inside.

Hey let's not attack the guy on the ball! Let's give them all the space and time in the world! At this rate they'll score 5 +
