Not keeping hold of the ball well at all. Look well off the pace, which is concerning.
Don't think Walsall are that bad. Their wingers are skinning our fullbacks often, just have no final ball. If they did we could be 3 or 4 down. Ricardinho not helped at all by GvK, who is having a pretty poor game all round, refusing to track back.
Not great but we are a second half team and we should be further behind than we are. Salvageable.

Shocking. Zero energy/aggression. Walsall aren't very good. But we aren't even competing where it matters.

Why boo though? Doesn't help anyone I think it was for the ref. I hope.

Rothwell and Lego and Mousinho should be assumed of that performance. Well I may excuse Lego as he was better than the other too.

I am deeply concerned. I am JUST looking at the stats (and live text) and they tell a thousand stories. Shot by Walsall, shot by Walsall, shot by Walsall, corner conceded by Eastwood...and so on. Possession OUFC 55% Walsall 45%. These last 2 games seem as bad as that thrashing by Cambridge early on in Mappy's tenure.
The difference is that Pep has not had to rebuild his side completely and we have the nucleus of a good squad. This is largely down to tactics, which was meant to be one of his best traits.

Couldn't complain if Walsall were 3 up.
Clueless. Only Obika & Eastwood turned up, maybe Nelson & Hall.

Best part of 4 hours without an Oxford league goal at the fence end. Could have been 5 down but for Clint and poor finishing. Real lack of attacking options on the bench. Even Roberts would provide some sort of option. Can't believe how disjointed and disorganised we look. Mous completely done for their goal.
Can we play as badly second half?

We need to find someone who can take a corner and free kick. Our set pieces are shocking

The hardest thing to take is Walsall started the the first 15 mins like a rabbit with lights in its eyes.

Plan is to keep it 1-0 and stick Nelson up top last 10 mins. This is what it has come to ....

I like that we've put 3-4 floating crosses in now that we have a midget front line. Use your brains!
From what I'm seeing, we have a good level of experience, and some strong characters in defence - but midfield and attack - 100% not enough belief, confidence, or strength in character.

They really are rubbish. Roberts scores for Walsall in the same minute Hylton puts Luton in front. I wonder if Clotet was the right choice now

It's performances like Blackpool and this, where I miss a Chris Wilder post match interview. I don't want a bunch of waffle, and protection of players. I want Pep to hold his hand up, and hold himself and the players accountable.
