My saddest take on today's game was Zions future confidence. He has been an absolute star all season and today he looked a bit shaky, obviously the Fulham mistake didn't help. Our defence gave away far too many corners and a good corner takers now know exactly where to put the ball virtually inch perfect, I'm sure he will work on this with the goalkeeping coaches and will learn from it. The result today was definitely not down to him, there at least six in front of him. Lots will say we will bounce back , I sincerely hope so, however ball retention especially in midfield is going to hold us back unless this and a decent back four, will make anything like last season extremely unlikely.

Scott I agree, we give the ball up to easily in midfield at times. However we've been done again by var. BBC highlights clearly show lemmens deliberately barging into Zion for the fourth goal. No intention of going for the ball.
Big six syndrome again.

Zion needs to man up and realise it's dog eat dog in the premier league, we don't need a gentleman we need a killer, he can be polite in his interviews and all that jazz but he needs to be the boss in his box, and if he's being fouled then he needs to learn to go down when players are fouling him.

I'm not convinced, even before the Fulham game he didn't look the most convincing coming for high balls but as we won the games it didn't get commented on too much. He will get targeted by opposition teams from now on and I'm not sure based on what I've seen to date he's going to get better at dealing with the physical aspects of the PL.
I think if we can get our money back let him go.
