Jeez, some of the players on both sides have the touch of a baby elephant. Zero close control...

Bielsa being completely schooled by Lampard

Absolutely. I said months ago if we blow promotion, it will be Bielsa to blame. What the hell he is doing with those two idiots at centre back tonight, and not subbing early.

We gifted them that with some shocking individual errors.

The shirt weighed too much for plenty of them tonight, Roofe is a big miss for that team.

Pressure does strange things to even the most experienced players , it was obvious that Pontus should have been on at halftime , Pablo was very poor , and let's not even mention the keeper . Bielsa got it so wrong tonight .

To be fair, the goal before half time was their first shot on target in 135 mins of play, but it blew them away

The biggest disappointment is just how close this team was to promotion , when in reality we have massively overachieved with the players available at the end .

Agreed said exactly same

I agree that the team overachieved over the season, but it's been clear the team has a soft core, and has given cheap goals away when on top far too often at the end of the season.

My dear is that we'll lose our best players over the summer and go back to being mediocre again
