Why did we let a two goal lead slip?

Allardyce may want to blame the officials and does have a point to a certain extent, but needs to focus on the fact that his side lost the plot when it came to their defensive duties at the end.

The first goal was unlucky but could arguably have been cut out far before it even got to Danny Rose’s feet and the Alex Song bundling over in the box was simply awful.

While the point picked up against Southampton felt like three, this one was more like zero.
