Sorry to have to say this as I want stability as do most of us but if Mr Karanka doesn't pull the rabbit out of the hat and give us all some sort of a performance we may be looking for a new manager very soon, totally out managed last night. whywas Jacob not given a chance after halftime and bring on a young lad when he and the team were up against it ( did very well though ) did the experienced lads not want to come on or had Karanka had enough by then.

Did you actually watch the game? Every single out field player had a stinker.Dawson gave the ball away several times 20 yards from goal. How can a manager prevent very experienced players from doing things like that.He was just an example. I could rip into the other 9 players but what's the point.

Could it be with AK treating Burton Albion with a lack of respect so did the players which led to them playing badly.?

We have to 100% stick with AK , we have inconsistencies of course but in essence we are heading in a better direction than last year. We have done well against the top teams and lost just twice plus 1 cup game. I agree sometimes the play at the City Ground is not entertaining plus I like others suspect AKs hands are tied re the three Amigoes . I think compared to Lolley , Cash and Osborn they are light years away but will maturity improve them ? However we don’t seem to have that patience with Yates, Bereton or Worrall and Evtimov!!!!

We lost a very good chance of getting to the quarter finals of a cup because he made to many changes it's that simple he obviously believes it's better to give up a chance of some silverware and a day out to Wembley for promotion

The Portuguese players were brought in by AK and his bosses, Yates, Worrall, and Brereton were not. That is the difference.

Did he make too many changes against Stoke and Newcastle then?
You can't blame the manager for players not turning up for the fight.

Agreed they're paid enuff to play half decent. Don't get no excuses from other teams playing a weakened team. I don't mind the result or losing games its the pathetic excuse of turning up and playing abysmal after all they are meant to be professional well paid football players.

He picked the team he made all the changes to many that simple so yes

The players some on here have been gagging to play Steele, Janko, Bridcutt , Cash , Osborn etc all had there opportunity to shine and fluffed it.

Maybe your right perks so the big squad full of quality players is not looking so big and full of quality so let's hope we have no injuries the rest of the season else we could be in trouble

For my my opinion on that read further down.

Totally agree Perks, the mindset is blame AK and the Portuguese for everything regardless.
Sitting 7th in the table and not the first time a team has been dumped out of the cup by lower division team. Think some folk just want to moan.

Both AK and the Players have to take stick for last night's result.

AK for changing nearly the entire team, therefore not giving both the cup, or Burton Albion the respect they deserved, and the players for not wanting to win as much as a so called lesser team did.

You could say that having everyone's view on here gives a Balanced View overall. 😁

Balancedview,the players were all that bad it's just easier to blame the manager.Sometimes you get away with 1 or 2 having a bad game but 10 you don't stand a chance.

Going further in cup would of been a distraction and would of impacted our promotion challenge.
Our owner as stated its promotion or bust.
I think several players will be off loaded in January.
Bridgcutt Dias concalves ect
And if we are comfortably in top 6. Karanka will be backed again to get us up.
Another forward and tomlin me thinks

With a squad as big as ours,and it being said having strength in depth if we can not beat a team struggling in league 1 it is a poor do.
