With regards hunger, I think Simms has improved this under Lampard. Much more so than Wright.

Looks like he will be here next season then

I don't think many people are annoyed simply because Wright didn't play well and made mistakes, rather it was his lack of effort during both legs that has caused the backlash. Van Erwijk and Kitching made crucial errors but they gave their all for the cause.

I certainly think he would be very effective in league one. His ability with range of passing, crossing and control of the ball is at least a level or two above league 2. What I like is he isn't predictable and he can do things that others can't. I remember Robins commenting once about his...

Jodi Jones oozing class for Notts County. Should be playing at a higher level.

Not sure what is happening there. It sounded positive and people were raving about his performance v Rangers. Then selected for the Wales senior squad. Didn't make the bench in both games. Since then he has hardly featured for Motherwell. Mostly an unused sub.

I don't think it is his poor form that people are annoyed about. Rather, it is his lack of effort / fight that was on display. If you can't put challenges in during a playoff then questions need to be asked. For me personally, if I see players not performing but giving their all for the shirt, I...

Imagine having Grimes for a full season. Him and Dovin made a huge difference from January. He and Rudoni are two top players at this level.

I think Mason-Clark offers plenty of flair and trickery. It doesn't even matter if there are two players standing him up, he will still look to take them on. His footwork is incredible. He also has the strength to make him quite unusual for a winger. I like also the way he takes the ball on his...

I wonder what they had to say about Lampard then for not changing it and allowing him to stroll around for 210+ minutes of playoff football?

It probably reflects my nativity as I didn't realise that this was normal practice. The fact that it was mentioned in the pre match commentary made me think this was not normal. There is so much that goes on now such as the time wasting, the goalie fake injury and the playacting that is...

I didn't say we did

I would say Grimes because he always plays with his head up and has the ability to dictate the tempo. He is experienced and calm. On another point about captaincy, if the designated captain is subbed or is subbed then the arm band is passed on to the next in line. However, in some scenarios...

I don't know if there is any truth in the report that Coventry's changing room was overly warm at the stadium of light. If this is true, I feel this is cheating. Surely this is in breach of some rule? This is different to them choosing to bring the advertising boards closer to the pitch to...

Body language can be misleading. There were certainly issues early season with attitudes. However, the majority of players look like they enjoy playing for the club. Even some slated players like BTA and Bassette put in a shift. Wright though does not look like he wants to be here. Maybe he does...

Heartbreaking. Think Eccles injury disrupted our control. Everyone put in a massive shift and stepped up with the exception of Wright unfortunately. If you pay £9m for a player you expect more and he hasn't shown up again. In hindsight he should have been replaced by Simms. So many superb...

Mason-Clark probably needs to come off now. He has done great though

Thomas needs to avoid any tired lunges

He may keep Wright on for penalties. He just hasn't shown up again. May be he will make amends in extra time. Well done Mason-Clark for lasting the distance. Grimes has been superb.
