That's what I'd go with as well. Your suggested bench shows how much stronger the squad is these days, especially when you consider we have Dovin, Eccles, Lati and Sheaf to come back from injury. Not to mention the enigma known as Bassette, although I don't think we will see him in a Sky Blue...

Yes, more clarity is required. Is this what you mean?

I’m not saying you’re wrong but it strikes me as odd. Why would you defend differently on one side of the pitch to the other, leaving us noticeably weaker on the left?

I think Dasilva is our first choice at the moment, with Brau ready to come on in games where we are struggling defensively down our left. In fairness to Dasilva neither Haji nor EMC are as effective tracking back as Saka is on the other side. Bidwell’s role at the moment seems to be as cover...

I wanted a draw against a team that would test us but with a decent chance of victory. I guess Millwall are one of those teams, although it's not a very attractive fixture. I would have been happier if we had drawn them at home.

Well said! It's the best post I have seen on here for some time 👍

If we can I would loan him out for a season - not with an option for the other club to buy him - and see how he develops. I think with the right coaching and mentoring he could turn out to be a good player.

He's young, raw and inexperienced but clearly has pace and skill. Given the above, I was very impressed by his performance and I look forward to seeing how he develops this season because I'm sure he will get some game time. For me, I think he is already good enough to provide cover and...

I hope FL puts his arm around his shoulder and tells him that, if he carries on playing like that, the goals will surely come. It almost breaks my heart to see Simms looking so down. He worked hard tonight and did some good stuff. I really want the goals to start coming for him, as much for his...

Haji wasn’t getting in the right positions. I was encouraged by Simms in terms of his general play and effort. His finishing obviously needs to be sharper but it’s his first competitive match for months.

Encouraging performances from Rapha, Andrews, Brau, KKH and Simms. Simms does need to improve his finishing but he was OK tonight.

Simms has worked hard tonight and has done alright, although his goal attempts in the first half were disappointing. I know it’s a low bar but I think, based on tonight, he’s pushing BTA for a place in the starting lineup.

Simms is averaging a goal every 56 minutes this season. 🙂

Certainly not as good as Saka at the moment but, as I said, I do see him as good enough for cover. A good option from the bench to freshen things up. We won’t know how good he is against a decent Championship full back until we see it happen. I reckon that his pace could cause problems against...

Based on the first half I think Rapha is good enough to cover for Saka.

Rapha playing well.

Simms looking up for it tonight. That’s the first hurdle he has to jump if he is ever going to win his place back.

His run to pick up the pass was good, the finish not so good.

I believe it's red button on 404.

I really hope that Simms has a good game and gets a goal. 🤞
