Yeah, not good. No excuse but Mitchell getting the knock on the head probably didn’t help. Either way he has to come off now we have a more attacking option. Good to see Wharton on.
What is with lino's seemingly flagging more often now, on tight calls? Watching the City Newcastle game earlier, twice Gordon was flagged offside in the 2nd half, one of which was blatantly onside, the other was tight as arseholes!Mitchell looks concussed. That throw was really odd like his head is not right. Several times he looked dazed after O'Brien headbutted him. I think Chilwell will replace him at half-time.
I thought we played well first half, we scored (linesman clearly made a mistake from replays) and Sarr was inches from a goal. One bizarre mistake and we're behind but we do have a really strong bench.

Either way it wasn’t clear cut in which case the linesman should be keeping his flag down. Having said that even with that we still should have been two up. Mateta and Sarr both failing to convert straight forward chances. Our overall play was quite good but we so obviously run out of ideas in the final third.No. Ball didn’t go out. Linesman had one of those rush of blood/twitches and raised the flag. He should have let it go and VAR would have called it if it was clearly out. Oh well. … F… up police about again.
