I hardly think they tore us apart. Dieng didn’t have a lot to do, defensive lapse for their goal. We were fragmented, think the early goal gave us a false sense of security. Think we shaded the second half. Let’s make sure we give Bolton a good seeing to!
It wasn't a bad miss from Cole. The ball rebounded off the bar and fell behind him. He managed to twist his leg round and get something of his heel on the ball. He did very well to make as clean a contact as he did.
I felt sorry for Cole up front. Even Aguero would have found it difficult playing in our team today.The service into the striker was dreadful and supporting runners non-existent. Our build up play was too slow and ponderous, their defenders always getting back into position before we'd put the ball in / through.Seriously disappointing against a Rochdale team with the 3rd worst away goals conceded in the division. There is no way we're going to go on the sort of run we need if we can't put these teams away.

From where I was it looked like he wasn’t in the right position/body shape to put it in. If the highlights show different then I take it back.

Let’s face it Campsall we were awful in all 3rds
If Buts and Maybes don’t win matches tho... the facts speak for themselves .. they were hungrier .. better in possession and more organised than us

Football has a very fine line between success and failure in many matches and although we didn’t play well if we had won no one would have cared a jot and most wouldn’t have even noticed we were below par. Goals win matches. We only scored 1 and that’s cost us. As poor as we may have played we could have had 3/4 with a rub of the green.
Wasn't a defense lapse for there goal just nobody willing to tackle the player with the ballThe game should have been put to bed long before no one willing to have a shot apart from sadlier

He hit it well, but that was as poor as a piece of defending as I've seen from us for a while.They hardly looked like scoring apart from that. Ok, the effort that hit the bar in the first half. But whichever way you look at it, it was a very big defensive lapse
Rochdale played a lot of pretty football but 70% was in their own half. Apart from the goal they were awful in the last 3rd of the pitch. Deing never had a serious save to make.To say they tore us apart is not how I saw it at all.Peterborough had 35% possession today and won 4-0 The only stat that counts is the score line.
