Decent enough, our weaknesses were pretty apparent, defending in the air in particular. No creative spark after their second either, just a lot of passing around before we eventually fucked it up, De Jong probably the wrong sub in that regard. Good game though, and a decent start for McClaren.

Awful end to what was a promising game. Not using Aarons and/or Ayoze in the end here is criminal. Siem a total and utter passenger in that hoofing stuff. Colback had a great game, so fair play to him.

Unfortunate to not come out of it with a win but it was a fair result. Really impressed with Mbemba, and Mitrovic looks like he could be a real problem for defenders. Good to have a striker who's not afraid to run at them.

56% possession against a very good passing side who've been settled for over a year is very encouraging.

 

Weak defence the let down and its going to be a long long season if we don't get another CB and a LB.

 

Mind, would have snapped your hands off for a desmond before the game.

I thought he was typically pitiful aside from that admittedly brilliant cross.
