Obviously as we are bottom and sh*t the stats generally do not make pleasant reading but anyway these seem pertinent:
14th in the half time table and 3rd in the “home” half time table.

By far the worst in the division in the home second half table.

minutes 46-60 and the last 15 minutes remain a big problem for us.

Conclusion – we are definitely no longer a “second half side.”
Is it a fitness thing? Is it Farke telling them to relax and sit back rather than firing them up at half time? Is it opposition managers making changes and us not responding to them? Late us of subs and lack of options who can really change things?
Generally speaking, the stats suggest that we are in games until half time and generally get the initial team set up is ok but we really struggle in the first sector of the second half and concede a lot of late goals as well. I suspect the latter may be because we are often chasing games and leave ourselves a bit exposed. In general, a LOT of our games at home have been taken away from us in that early part of the second half.
I can;t find the stats for goes conceded from set pieces and headers but suspect they are not great either.
