The good news is that we’re now at 11 games undefeated.
The bad news, is that our defence still needs a lot of work. Having gone through a long stretch of games where the defenders and goalkeeper were doing some solid work keeping the goals out in batches, that all came to an end today as the Blues shipped three. Although one of them was a penalty, so they do get a little bit of leeway on that front.
However with 52 goals conceded across the season, it’s certainly not the worst record in the division, but could do with a lot of improvement.
Scott Hogan’s late goal was enough to rescue a point for Pep Clotet’s men today, however, it was the state of the back line that was getting the majority of the attention throughout the game for the Blues today, as they came under constant criticism.
Typical blues…

And yet again the opposition score with their first shot on target. Week in, week out it happens. Camp wants yo warm up before the game actually starts

I said yesterday that we shouldn’t have been too hasty to get rid of some of our defenders, because with the amount of goals we’re conceding, we may just need to exhaust all the options we can get at this stage.
