Good win. Brau looked good.

Rapha really did well. Happy now without a back up RW. Feeling more comfortable in our transfer window, Just Need a CB and ST. Maybe a CM

Rapha man of the match.

Brau also big shout out. He’s going to become our LB.


We still have problems in the striker department if you ask me. Simms should have a hat trick. He just isn’t clinical. But hopefully a goal gives him some confidence.

Simms looks disappointed. Do feel for him, seems a lovely bloke, but it's not quite working for him.

Yes Brau looks like a heart on sleeve kind of player.

A full 90 suggests that he's going to be starting LB soon in the league.

Thought Raphael and Andrew’s played well tonight. Be interesting to see them against better opposition! Good options off the bench for sure

If it included his back garden you might be on a winner.

You'll carry on hating Simms. Always got to be someone. He played well, another day, he scores 3. Why don't you haters try to get behind players? Abuse me all you like Some good performances.

That was generally fine. No real poor performances but only really Rapha who stood out as having a particularly good game. Simms will probably get a bit of grief for his misses but glad that he scored and was happy to see him getting into good positions again, even if his finishing was erratic.

That the problem you’d think it should have given him confidence but then you look at the missed chances since and our fans being pricks in the stadium

Still think a change of scenery might be best for him

I think Simms has done ok tonight considering the elevator music that is permanently playing in his head. Has to be off putting.

Kitch and Bidwell solid.

Think Raphael has been lampards little project, just smiles when he’s talking about him, always asking why he’s not playing, there’s def something there

Haji wasn’t getting in the right positions.

I was encouraged by Simms in terms of his general play and effort. His finishing obviously needs to be sharper but it’s his first competitive match for months.

Yeah I get that just think for him it’s best to move on, especially since I’d like to think we‘d target a player very much in the simms mould and less in the Jamie vardy mould

I’m half joking Tbf. But he’s not great is he. Still want him to do well.

Nah, not for me. He looks a lot trimmer this season though which should help him in not getting injured as regularly.

Yeah Raphael did alright. Brau generally rusty but I reckon he’ll improve and be a good signing

He always was a project. Its only on here where people created some sub plot about him

I wanted him to be loaned out to learn the trade but based in tonight he's better in the squad because he's got something

Only got back to watch the 2nd half, thought we looked comfortable.

Raphael, Torp and Brau had a good game from what I saw

Pleased that Simms got off the mark, and more minutes for Wright is important.

Just seen a replay of the goal, he didn't even look for that pass to Wright either.
