We look so shaky. Need to get through this spell and this game. We look drained of confidence after Wigan game. 2 weeks ago we looked incredible. Amazing what 1 game can do.

You literally said you doubt it’s a one off and major changes are needed? In the post I quoted. I agree Toal and Charles back in for our best 11. Could argue Johnston too if he wasn’t injured for the season. Iredale was brilliant first 3 games … but had a mare agaisnt Wigan so I’d give him...

Just looked it up on opta… and those stats are for open play xg only and don’t include set pieces. Didn’t realise at the time.

Mate you need to find a middle ground. We are either the best team in the world or need to change everything…. Saturday was shit but it happens. Sunderland got pumped 6-0 by us and got promoted. Over the season these xg stats add up. Over 1 game it doesn’t matter but it’s like the whole...

Cambridge top. Don’t mind that. I like Bonner. Great start from them. Today hopefully hasn’t been too damaging for hs

Also the fact it’s a derby. We looked nervous at the start. Taking extra touches, no fluidity and making mistakes. Just not at it. Also despite not wanting to say it… this Wigan team is pretty decent. They’re absolutely massive all over the pitch, fight for every ball and have quality delivery...

I’m not worried yet - for the season. Todays result has gone. Dion Charles suspension today hasn’t helped as well. But as you can see from the stats we’ve been in the game. Just stupid errors.

Similar to vales first game maybe. We’ve been nowhere near our best but 3 genuine mistakes and we’ve been punished.

Weve completely bottled it today. 3 individual errors for the goals, hasn’t been an uneven game but we’ve been so sloppy, playing too slow. They just want it more. We always bottle these types of games.

Really fancied us at the start of the week against Wigan but with Charles suspended and Evatt potentially not on the touchline I’m a lot a more worried now… despite our great start. Draw wouldn’t be the worst result.. if we win then we really are building some early momentum

I had no idea he was still available. Didn’t realise he failed the medical… thought he’d signed. I’d 100% take him at Bolton if he is fit.. I know we were interested earlier in the summer. Having said that I can’t believe how good Dacres-Cogley is. Been immense so far

This ref is a complete idiot. Sent off Charles and Evatt for literally nothing, after sending off Charles instead of Kachunga last season too. Definitely has it in for us. Probably no Evatt and defo no Charles for Wigan at the weekend. Fantastic

Fleetwood have come out fighting in the second half and Baxter has had to make a few really good saves. Adeboyejo just had his 4th goal ruled out for offside but looked on tbh. Very close

Early days and I don’t want to get too excited but we don’t half look good this season. Gone up a level on last season already. Fleetwood haven’t actually done too badly here but we look so much better going forward this season after being so toothless for a lot of last season

Depends on the style of the team. He is the best pressing forward I’ve ever seen for us. He runs and sprints all game hassling centre backs etc and he can finish. He is possibly our most important player (between him and Santos - those 2 are the first names on the team sheet) and we look so...

Haha maybe not maldini but he was really good in pre season. Really like the look of him. Had a couple of dribbles up the pitch from cb and scored a good goal. Solid in possession. Will be interesting to see how he fares when he plays a few league games

On the face of it yes I’d sell and reinvest but they’ve just got 25m for Scott. Think we can squeeze a bit more. Would want a decent sell on too but we could bring in 2/3 quality additions for that. Or blow it all on moxon!

Another set piece goal. Early days but we look a different animal this season already. We aren’t keeping possession for possession’s sake. Happy to go into the channels or in behind and mix it up a bit more than in previous seasons but at the same time control the game and take the sting out...

Best goalkeeper we’ve had since Jussi Jaaskelainen. I’d be very surprised if he doesn’t get capped by England at some point.

You played well against us at your place too. A Trafford wonder save at the end preventing you from getting all 3 points. We never seem to turn up when we play you!
