I just worry as to the amount of errors that Phillips makes that lead to goals. Certainly a stack more than RCC or Martin or Ricketts or Stokes and for that matter, Haynes too. He has cost us dearly on a number of occasions.

Nope. And the more and more I see him, the more I view him as a centre back in the future rather than a fullback. He's not the quickest and crossing isn't his strong point, but at centre back he is steady and commanding and calm too. If we're not looking now, I would be looking in the summer...

The were disciplined, well organised and difficult to break down. Think we always have errors in our team unfortunately. Fleck, Phillips the two keepers etc. Burton didn't look like they were going to make an error but we always seem to have that in our make-up unfortunately.

Well yep, but we are not privy to what is going on, on the training ground. I just wonder whether he is carrying a knock. Would most definitely been a better choice than Lameiras.

That's what I meant. We were in control leading up to this goal in THAT spell, not that we were in control all game.

He wasn't out the there with the subs at half time when I looked.

We were the better team though and second half we started really brightly and looked the more likely to score. Phillips' mistake changed the game. After that Burton looked well in control. Don't think Steve Davis said anything of the sort for that game compared to what I have said about our...

Would like to see us try and bag a left back and put Stokes back in the middle. He looks more natural and suited to that role.

We were in control before that mistake. Phillips' error changed the game.

If Fleck wants to go then it's just thanks and goodbye from me. Once someone wants to leave I think we simply have to move on and stop fussing over them anymore.

We were the best team though until the goal. Once that goal went in Burton looked in total control. Before Phillips' error they hardly threatened at all.

As someone said in the match thread, at half time he didn't come out with the subs and warm up. Makes you think he is carrying a knock.

Think one problem we have straight away is that Joe Cole can't play every game and seemingly, so too JOB. Certainly doesn't help when we have to keep putting them in and then taking them out. Lameiras today was a mistake. Could see that from the off. He would have probably been better for the...

Unfortunately we are having to.

I like Murphy, but I think to be a promotion side you need to have winners in your team and I'm not sure Murphy is a winner. I am talking about will to win and determination and desire and fight. When Murphy is good he's great, but when he's not it's almost like we are playing with 10 men. I...

We were most certainly too weak and Lameiras' inclusion was a big mistake, but in saying that, that is what a lot of fans were calling for. Today wasn't the game for him I don't think. Burton are strong, organised and muscular in their approach. At times they just took the ball off Lameiras...

Yep. Him and Vincelot were excellent first half. I thought we started the second half really well too and looked the team likely to score, but that goal out of the blue due to Phillips' dreadful error really seemed to knock the stuffing out of us and we looked clueless from that point on...

He did seem determined to get booked following that first foul in the sequence of the tussle.

MOTM for me was Vincelot. Murphy poor, Lameiras poor, dreadful mistake by Phillips when we were very much in the ascendancy and once that goal went in we were always going to struggle. Walsall a better team for me than Burton, but seemingly Burton keep finding a way to win. Have thought our...

We kept passing the ball out left to Stokes and then just left him there with ball and every time he therefore just had to keep passing the ball backwards. As you say, zero support.
