Crowd won that point

Don’t think there another set of fans in the country, who would have done that second half with the performances of a late and the garbage first half.

The fans have been slated on here by some, but they were great second half and drove the team on

The keeper is very very poor

Cost us goals, he never makes a clean catch, he can’t catch anything, his passing causes us problems(not his fault but it kills us at times being so deep)

How anyone can say this keeper should be first choice is beyond me

I do think we need a new keeper in the summer but as it stands Felix is the best we've got....so we will have to make do.

Keeper has cost us many points this season, Bristol just targeted him, same as Millwall, same as Cardiff. His handling is abysmal and his punching isn't even good to make up for it.

Rob Green would have saved us loads of points. Still can't get past the decision to sell him.

and that's the point lufc, other clubs are targeting him. We have a set piece coach who should be able to understand how to counter this and we have a coach whose main value proposition is that he understands the Championship, so one would hope that they pretty quickly work out how to minimise tagetting on Felix as e's probably going to be our first choice till end of season.

Think its unfair to suggest he was at fault for the games agaionst Cardiff and Milwall, personally. Been one of our better performers for a number of weeks now.

I agree Lubo. Opposition have targeted our munchkin type defence as much as anything.

Just watched the brief highlights....sky commentator

"oh and wiedwald makes a big pigs ear of that, he got away with it".

Save from the header didnt look too bad live but seeing it again he has to do better. Id back 7/10 keepers to save and catch the ball there. The other 3 should be palming it away from goal. Wiedwald does neither. MInd you shocking from O'Kane (again) giving it away in the first instance. Could easily have been 0-3 and game over as we struggled to clear the afters of that "save"

As for the first goal - just wow. Wiedwald comes out and simply gets nowhere near the ball. Flat footed reactions from De Bock and Jansson for the seconds.

Sympathy only that he is under pressure to come out as he as a small side in front of him. Not enough sympathy mind. I would happily pay his air fare back to Germany.

Millwall literally hit balls into the box constantly at Felix, we dealt with nothing and had Pontus and Cooper on the pitch, not exactly midgets.

I just don't buy this height thing when it comes to winning headers, Forshaw won loads in the air yesterday and he's about 5'8, it's about timing.

Fair point. As a player i used to spring above many taller players.

Poor in the air side rather than a small side.

Looking through the sizes im amazed.
Pennington is poor in the air for a 6ft1 CB.I thought he was about 5ft 10!
Dallas is 6ft - heads like he is 5ft 8
Lasogga 6ft2 -
Sacko 6ft
Jansson 6ft5
Ekuban 5ft 11 1/2
