Always knew Axel was going to be huge for us. He looked a cut above last season. Don’t complain about him not being an attacking threat. He is basically a CB and he was playing against one of the worlds best wingers |

Worst goalkeeping debut since Richard Wright for England. Positives: they stuck to it, Axel good as we knew he is, Hutch decent, Dunlap a bruiser. Plus l have to say having never seen City in the flesh before, they are truly awesome. De Bruyne is a genius. I now know how Exeter fans felt a couple of seasons ago. |

This is far more difficult than the previous two seasons cos most of last years team are not PL standard but you cannot bring in too many and expect a team to form overnight. They will also want some wiggle room for recruits in January to address deficiencies as they have in the past two seasons. Selling a share of the club last year was really good planning as it gives us the firepower needed at this level. |

Cheer up Blues fans. We may or may not sign him but the scale of the fee signals we are not going to do what Luton and Sheff Utd did and spend peanuts. Nor are planning to replace virtually the entire team a la Burnley. Nor are we doing what Forest did and sign anyone with a pulse. Moreover going for a top striker indicates a positive approach- we are not looking to play England style unthreatening low block. |

Would be very surprised if he goes but Potter or Cooper would be good replacements. Potter built what de Zerbi has used (less successfully) and Cooper had an impossible job at Forest. TBH I wonder about Brighton. If l was them, I would not want someone who has never managed at the highest level. Adkins, who got Saints into the PL with successive promotions never managed the big time |

Just in case we all forget- it was a thoroughly enjoyable game which could have gone either way. And while it was not the result we wanted l saw no signs of bottling. |

I can’t move for my bum squeaking. l sat next to a bloke (Scot) who had come down from Aberdeenshire and brought his little four year old son. I promised a return to his usual football poison- the improbably named Inverurie Loco Works. |

I think we look more solid with Tuanzebe. It is noticeable the disallowed goal in the first half came about when he was out of position. Our final ball was poor today. Luckily for us when Blackburn put us under pressure it was mostly balls in the air and we have the personnel to deal with that. Might be a minority view ( certainly in Blackburn) but l thought the ref was pretty good. None of their ‘goals’ should have stood. Our goal was weird cos we were all the other end and it took a second for everyone to realise it had gone in. Couldn’t see the shout for a pen early on. |

I haven’t seen it so would like to hear from those who have about Tuanzebe. He had a great game last week and it looked as if we are finally getting out of him the talent he undoubtedly possesses. Is it a coincidence his presence has coincided with a rare clean sheet? |

Good luck to him whatever he does. I have never heard a grumble or complaint about him. He is living proof that if you have the talent, it can developed at Town. |

Tiredness is a poor excuse for what happened last night. How many games do the likes City, Liverpool and Arsenal play at the highest level? The truth is Town were off it from the start, were allowed a lot of space to score three goals and then the whole team relaxed thinking it job done. I am loathe to criticise a KMK team but the issue was attitude and in that department we were taught a lesson. Rotherham know they are going to be relegated and no one would have blamed them for defeat but they never gave up. I have nothing but admiration for their professional attitude. |

I don’t buy this stuff about tiredness. Attitude was the issue. As soon as the third went in, they relaxed and things went from bad to worse. All credit to Rotherham who never gave up and deserved something from the game. Credit also to their fans who are having a miserable season and cannot have had much hope. |

We were poor first half but the first goal resulted from a foul and the second was offside. They lost their heads a bit after that with a lot of misplaced passes and little movement when in possession. Obvs mistakes at the back and Burns poor. If Moore had been on from the start we would have won comfortably. He is clearly what he have been missing. I can’t see Jackson ever getting another start |

He’s not very quick or the most technical but he holds the ball up well and his height gives us something we have badly lacked. I have lost count of the number of crosses coming in from both wings where there is no one with the ability to seriously challenge in the air. His presence means opposing defences will have something else to think about. |

Comment | Town Targeting Wimbledon Striker Al-Hamadi
at 16:50:53
Well blow me down. I was watching Iraq the other day and said to an Iraqi friend we could do with one or two of their players, especially a striker. He said he thought there was as Iraqi playing in England but we couldn’t find him, probably cos he’s not in the PL. No idea if he will be any good but being 6’2” is a great start. We lack muscle up front. Poor old Kayden isn’t strong enough whatever his other qualities. He got absolutely nothing out of Leicester. I don’t like it when people criticise him. He does his best. But we could really do with a beast. |

Some positives today. All our defenders including Edmundson looked solid although we missed having forward runs on the flanks from deep positions. Also Jackson had a presence today, unlike against QPR. No one played badly but a lot of the final balls were not very good and we found it difficult against a packed penalty area. We obviously lack a combative striker at present. Not too much wrong against a side who have been in form recently |

Comment | Hirst: A Lesson Learned
at 20:49:19
A few take aways from Saturday. We struggle against big physical teams, like last season. West Brom were exceptional without the ball and pretty lethal on the break. I thought Hirst part of the problem. He got nothing at all from their central defenders and WB closed down Chaplin very effectively. Nor did we get enough players in the box when the ball came in from the wings. And l agree our CBs are adequate but no more. I would like to see Scarlett given a start. And l hope we pick the pace up on Wednesday. Far too much backwards and sideways on Saturday. |
