Not acceptable or good enough at this level. He undoubtedly keeps us in games and makes many brilliant saves but his dithering and decision making has to be sorted out if we are serious about promotion/play-offs next season. No room for sentiment, winning needs a ruthless mentality.

He's still arguably the best keeper we've had since Randolph wore the jersey.

We had far more to complain about when Lumley and Bettinelli played for us.

Overall our playing out from the back still leaves a lot to be desired at times (including today) and our decision-making as a team needs to improve. Hopefully that will happen over the Summer.

The playing out from the back works much better with Hackney in the side

We just need a budget Caicedo alongside him for next season

Without doubt our best Keeper since Randolph by a Country mile but he needs to sort his head out because it will cost us points if he doesn't cut it out next season.

Doing it at 4-0 up is one thing, doing it at 0-0 in a tight top of the table clash could mean missing out on promotion or play offs especially if it's repeated a few times over a season. It's totally unnecessary and avoidable.

Some lovely goals but you can not excuse Dieng there because that was awful keeping despite being 4-0 up

It's quite striking that Gilbert looked immediately more in tune with our other forwards than Greenwood ever has, despite barely playing.

I'd have Dieng as better than Randolph.

Totally agree but we all know he has this particular mistake in him and it could costs us moving ahead unless cut out!

Those 2 games against Rotherham have really cost us in the end

[LBP 4,251 6.9k]

2 pre assists for Barlaser today? 👀

Also, Azaz has 11 goals and 10 assists. It's his first season at Championship level and he's had to adjust to a new team halfway through.

If anybody doesn't rate him at this point, I don't know what sport you're watching.

Don't forget the first 7 as well! 2 points from a possible 21! Horrendous start to the season...surely there won't be a repeat of that next season.
