Had too much beer pre-match to do a comprehensive and accurate report but my overriding thought from the North East Upper was Brum were big, strong and highly organised with a couple of lively players up front. Just about everything you would expect from a Gary Monk team. Coupled with the fact I thought everyone of our players had a poor game so much so that I'd give our MOTM to Dallas who came on late and actually made their keeper do something in 8 minutes of injury time (was it really or was that the beer ?).
It comes back to the lone striker up front problem at home and when you're playing with Philips as a mopping up 3rd central defender then it makes sense that if you're gonna struggle. Roberts who was tidy with possession never looked like scoring because he rarely got into the box. I don't think that team yesterday is good enough for promotion and if you look at the results since we lost Pablo it's mid table form and that's where I expect us to end up without a decent striker and Pablo.
