    Leigh not Lapslie? I guess Alexander doesn't fancy League 1.

    I though Sarcevic went for the ball whereas the Pattison challenge he just took him out, goal scoring chance or not.

    Also, that header from Kav was a sitter. Absolute sitter. 3 yards out, free header, doesn't need to jump. Has to score that. Unforgivable

    I agree, but I don't fancy us at all. We're not at the races and it looks to me like they're struggling with the weight of expectation

    You don't get a second look when your at the game mate so I can only call it as I see it live but we need far more movement off the ball, and get the bloody corners into the box.

    We've not got the mental strength required.
    80% of these players are not good enough for League 1.

    To be fair both teams have missed a sitter, one thing for sure if and when we do manage it we are going to need numerous improvements! But thats for another day.

    Come on City

    Why oh why is Leigh in front of Lapslie to replace Pattison?

    Crap substitution ( again )

    Hope he proves me wrong

    Sarcevic has been poor since his return from injury.

    Still cant fathom why Leigh over Lapslie.

    Be thankful it wasn't Crichlow in there.

    Aside from Halliday trying to be busy there just seems like a general malaise all over the pitch.

    You'd have thought they'd come out firing but it seems like it's intentional slow and steady football. Total pre-season vibes.

    Wouldn't put it past Fleetwood to go a goal up here. They must be delighted at the lack of energy from us.

    Have said the same about Sarcevic the last few games. Appreciate he's the big season signing but pick the team on merit.

    Going for the ball isn't a deciding factor though. You can escape a red when not trying to play the ball and get a red when trying to play the ball. Sarcevic might have been trying to play the ball but he was late getting there and with the force and his studs up so it's one of these things if the red comes out you can't really complain.

    It's poor is this. Where's the energy and purpose? Do these lot not want to play in League 1?
