Simms performance in the 30 mins he was on was far worse than Godden’s.

He was knackered by the time he came off. He had a very good first half but faded quickly as he always does

Agreed, I thought we looked pretty out of ideas and were helped by 2 very good finishes Also agree on Lati, his passing range is pretty limited and his speed of thought is too slow to be progressive enough with the ball. He’s ok as a stand-in but he shouldn’t really be starting in the midfield 3.

Now Eccles makes it 8!

O’Hare with the armband, I make that the 7th player to captain for at least part of a game this season (Kelly, Fadz, Godden, Sheaf, Allen, Bidwell)

Allen then Bidwell

Yes he had a very poor game. Take nothing away from Shai Hope though, his knock was a masterclass in playing the situation. He is a true modern great of the ODI game

‘Get onside you lazy twat!’ heard loud and clear through the Sky red button coverage

Yeah it’s an interesting one - he’s seemingly nailed as 1st choice now so wonder if he’ll stick around until end of the season

The plan was always to take a 2nd string ODI side. And they've likely given a few players time off post-WC, Malan being one as he has a 2 month old baby, hence why he's not in the T20 squad I do feel sorry for Hain though, agreed.

They both did ok today, but I still don’t think either of them are good enough for a side pushing for the top 6

He has always been the 3rd captain after Kelly and Mcfadz

At least he knows how we play. I’d far rather we had a top of the box midfield of COH/Allen/Palmer rotating, and use the strikers if not working. Ayari should go back to Brighton in January

Far too much. He’s not good enough

Would assume Sheaf will be captain with Kelly, McFadz, Godden, Allen all out of starting XI

Good to see Latibeaudiere in for Thomas. That’s our strongest back 3 currently

McFadz header v Leicester Wright v Boro Van Ewijk free kick v Watford Latibeaudiere header v Hull Godden's 1st v Cardiff (2nd phase from a corner) Simms 1st v QPR

Bobby Thomas looks very unconvincing to me as a Championship centre back for a side pushing for top 6. I don’t think he’s any better than McNally or Rose and certainly not Latibeaudiare.

First year I’ve ever had a ST, living in London it’s always hard to get up for games. Bought off the back of the brilliance of last season and the season before that. It was basically a pointless exercise and I won’t be bothering again
