Slightly agree with Lukerz there as Scarles did just hang out a leg and not make a great attempt at blocking the cross but it wasn’t the sort of cross we’ve been conceding from as 99 times out of a 100 it would have been ballooned over but Sesco delicately flicked it in. 10 points out of our last 5 games so if we can maintain anywhere near that form we should get enough from the last 12.
Yeah - I just look at it as that was basically the last attack - so let’s not close down a great crosser on his left foot & let’s leave a striker unmarked in the box to get on the end of it, regardless of the finish

And I’ll add, this is not the first time, Chelsea both first & second goals, today, Spurs away, QPR home - we constantly allow crosses into our box & don’t defend them
We are competitive in games, not much else can ask for. Whether its half a season too late or fundamental management failures or recruitment errors. The scales probably heavily tip us to go down, but at least its going down fighting.
Let's hope Wolves can have get a result at Forest tomorrow. If they were to then it would be another round of games we close the gap through. This isn't done yet as we have 12 matches left and we are in our best form of the season by far, whilst Spurs and Forest are dipping.
It’s a hugely gutting result, I think that’s the night we go down
Amongst our last 12 remaining games we have Bournemouth, Fulham, Wolves, Palace, Everton, Brentford, Newcastle and Leeds. If we go down, drawing with ManU is not the game where we went down.

We know what we need to improve
We need to stay up, however we do it, & tonight would’ve been huge in pushing us towards that had we seen it out
