After spending two weekends watching Bannon then Travis against us it’s massively obvious what our problem is - our centre midfield never show for the ball, ever, or if they do they pass it backwards.
Field is no doubt an excellent defender, but non existent going forwards. Varane looked like he’d been watching Dozzell videos. Colback sort of does it sometimes, then gets sent off and misses three games. Presumably we bought Madsen to help with this but he’s more like Stuart Wardley, totally anonymous the whole game then chips in with the odd goal
We’ve been crying out for someone in the super Ray mold for years now, someone who can find space and drive forward from midfield. I reckon we’d be better off playing Dembele in deep midfield and seeing what happens, at least his first reaction is to turn and doesn’t get knocked off the ball easily
Don’t think I can bear another game watching our centre mids pointing at Cook to pass it wide and hiding.
Chair papers over the cracks and we really need him back [Post edited 30 Sep 22:07]

TBH I'm sure that's what Mari wants but not what he's been given. The midfielders we've signed this year are different types of players. |  | |  |

Whatever type they are, it isn’t working. They don’t dominate the midfield and they don’t provide the service required for the likes of Frey and Dembele.
We have a better keeper and striker than last season and our defence is sound. Unfortunately, the midfield is not functioning in any way shape or form. At the moment it is a confused mess and needs significant work. The return of Chair is critical and if Dembele is better in the n-10 role ( no evidence to suggest he is after Saturday’s performance) then we have only Smyth or Anderson as options on the right, neither of whom can defend for toffee.
Be interesting to see the line up tomorrow as the tombola is in full swing, but Hull are no mugs and have a deeper squad than we do. It could be a seriously bumpy ride for a good few weeks yet. | | | |

Thanks Clive - Captured the game perfectly.
Whilst a drab first half we were right in the contest until the sending off.
Important game tonight and whilst I think we will be fine this season I've already started looking over my shoulder. | | | |
