The back 5 is creating their own problems. Keep being so negative and means no players can get any space in the midfield

Back 5 not working. Our mids don't look comfortable with it either. Nothing really working.

Simms just isn't good enough to play a lone striker in this formation, he's not capable of coming towards his own goal so he's completely redundant when we have got the ball

I think any striker would struggle in this formation.

Not sure if it’s that or he’s had absolutely no service up front.

No balls for him to attack really

One bit of ill-luck (or maybe it's just FTT's boots), but he's slipped at least twice now and they have had breakaways as a result

He hasn’t looked much of a tank tonight or the last few games.

You say that but hes been the least of our problems first half and done some ok stuff when he finally gets the ball. The problems been most of what’s behind him. MvE and Grimes only ones playing to usual standard

If we scrap this shape I agree. Carry on as is, we lose.

JDS shocking defending. Central defenders slow and flat footed. The tank doesn't bring much centrally going forward.
Rudoni, MVE done well. Simms ok. EMC not in the game.

Of course we won't be.

I expect adjustments. FL, I am sure will make the necessary changes

Onyeka has dropped off the last few weeks, but he's still better than Torp would be.

The Ellis Simms appreciation society is all very nice but he’s just never really managed to improve his movement and take out defenders.

I hoped he may get a couple of goals between now and the end of the season to get his value up but like last season he’s going backwards

To be fair to him, I don't think he's had a bad game. He's slipped twice and once robbed of the ball when it should have been a foul.

Some of the other stuff he has done has been decent

Definitely. It was meant to be to score the goals at the away end to win.

Disagree, Torp would show for the ball and pass it to our players which when we’re dominating possession is more important than disrupting play for me.

Don’t even think that. They just look a bit panicked. Constantly playing safe and worrying in possession imo

Yet he could have scored, but he's been off his game for about a month by my reckoning??

Disjointed. Wrong formation. Wright on, Biwell on for JDS. Torp on Grimes off.

Talking about service, the 5G in the stadium is very good! Just whizzed through eight pages of this as no chance of getting a pint! Great pre-match atmosphere.
