I was a bit sceptical when I saw him in the line up, but what a shocker he had, he was so far off the pace it was unreal, his passing was atrocious and he had the touch of an elephant !
Lets not forget where the goal came from, his inability to control the ball in the misddle of the park cost us dear !
But if I could see ALL THIS, why couldn't Dave Jones ?
Answer ? He could, its just he's to pig headed to admit he made a mistake by playing him and didn't take him off until it was too late !!!

You weren't the only one who could see it as well! I don't want to shout down Drinkwater. It's not his fault. He was trying his best but just wasn't ready yet.

Dont Blame Drinkwater, BLAME DJ NO RESERVE TEAM.

Drinkwater didn't start the season too well but after a few games he began to find his feet and became a valuable member of the team.
It was expecting too much of him to come in after a couple ofmonths and be the same player and unfortunately his rustiness showed today.

I don't think its anything to do with a reserve team
I think it was all about tactics & today Jones was clueless

McPhail would have been a better bet. He has the ability to split defences with his passing.

You can blame jones for picking him, but once he crosses that white line, the blame for todays performance goes to Drinkwater !
Anyone who has played football knows how to do the simple things like pass and trap a ball, he proved today he could do neither !
He should have been more honest and said boss i'm not ready !

Spot on Burke should never have been dropped, there were quite a few miss passes in midfield.

players did not perform today.FACT

I think it was the most stupid decision ive seen of DJ in a while.
Oh yer lets just stick and in experinced just come out of an injury youngster out in the a game of this calibre its just ridiculous .
