Don't get keeping both Wright and Simms on at the expense of Sakamoto. We need a player who can keep hold of the ball and can help defensively

I can't see us getting anything from this. Think we are going to get bullied. Here's hoping I am wrong.

What you need at Kenilworth Road against a physical side is a no-nonsense goalkeeper, not prioritising one that is decent with his feet. It baffles me that Wilson hasn't come in. I would understand it if Wilson is just not rated by Lampard but the fact he signed a new contract would suggest...

Where is the physicality and aggression Wright showed v Sunderland? He was awful again today and guilty of missing another simple chance with his head. He certainly isn't the reason for losing today but so frustrating when he has the capability to be a physical handful and is mostly anything but.

Too many performances like this to deserve getting into the playoffs. So many poor individual performances and tactically outdone

I would be inclined to bring DaSilva on early

Shocking performance. No intensity until 2 down. They are winning nearly every 50:50. Only Allen has showed some fight. Collins though should have saved both shots which were straight at him.

Latibeudiere gets a lot of criticism but he was solid against Hull and again today. I don't like the way he puts his body between opponent and ball to take a foul though. As we have seen previously there is risk of a referee not giving it

Totally controlled the game. If only we could have got a second. WBA surely cannot be as passive second half. Referee a joke again. Price commited 3 fouls, 2 of which warranted yellows. Grimes and DaSilva booked even though they make contact with the ball first.

Before they scored, the game was shouting out for Allen's energy to replace Sheaf. Thought Paterson should have come on earlier for Wright who was very poor second half

He put a perfect cut back to Van Erwijk who should have hit it first time. Too often when getting to the byline we drill it across too close to the keeper. Bassette showed exactly what we should be doing more of

Definitely a missed opportunity. We were cruising for much of that game

Deserved much more. Wright should have scored two. Their goal looked offside to me

Thought everyone played well so far. DaSilva and Van Erwijk have been excellent. First goal will be crucial.

I thought, particularly in the first half he was continually giving the ball away. More so than Thomas.
