    Simms put himself about very well and I thought was one of, if not our best player - he faded a bit when the formation changed, it seemed to make him less effective - he certainly didn’t hide though

    I’d never shout a player down, but he is too slow and in a back 4 a liability respectfully I disagree with you, we don’t miss him

    Sorry, can people please stop calling for Fadz, and even Kelly, they both had a great term with us but both are a step behind where we need to be now - and if you don’t see that then you need to give your head a wobble…. Kelly might be our only option soon in midfield, but he’s not good enough...

    Rather than being negative after a loss, I think it’s more that people can see we aren’t good enough in terms of squad and perhaps some individual players to compete, and after a disappointing and pretty confusing January window, coupled with the inevitable loss of key players to injuries with...

    agree with most of this but I’m not sure you can say we have ‘much greater depth’ this year, we own more players and our defence is pretty well stacked, but we have next to no cover on the right, very light in midfield, and if you were super critical we are also lacking up front I think that...

    it’s disrespectful mate, and if it turns out to be bullshit now not only will you look like more of a twat than you already did with your transfer window nonsense but trying to score some kind of points by making up a horrible rumour like that will also ensure legendary bell end status even if...

    yes I guessed, and also not necessarily, but in any event I think we are in agreement the standard of officiating in our league has been variable at best….

    we had this problem against Watford here early on in the season in the crazy game - and at the time, MR said we need to learn how to play against a strong high press… That was 3rd (?) home game of the season way back in September. have we learned anything? 🤔

    Is it just our luck that Torp will now get injured - was there any point bringing him on with 15 left? Wouldn’t be so bad if we weren’t already drastically lacking in depth…..

    No essentially I’m pointing out Lati isn’t a midfielder, and is limited in that position, and if you’re playing someone alongside him they need to understand and compensate tonight Eccles hasn’t done that - he’s been out of position and his passing has been very poor There’s no blame, it’s...

    well the answer is because Kelly is not up to the standard required Lati is a defensive midfielder, at best, he won’t do any fancy midfield work but he will (and does) sit and break play up, the problem is he needs a decent midfielder along side him and unfortunately Eccles isn’t it -...

    The one plus point, I think Simms and Wright are looking good, possibly one of their best halves playing together - other than scoring of course…

    Josh Eccles is poor - why is he persisting on set pieces, and why can’t he read the game? I can’t see at the minute us scoring three goals, we are pressing but I don’t see the final ball / cutting edge in the forwards - it’s looking a bit more like we were against Cardiff / Rotherham etc at the...

    very narrow in defence, two full backs tucking in giving them space wide also, Wright’s touch is better but sometimes he could let it go quicker, one touch rather than hold it
