Hopefully Lampard can see that not only is Kitching probably our best defender, he's a threat at set pieces and is aggressive. Needs to be a regular starter.

About time one of our managers figured it out this season.

We make such poor decisions on the ball and are our own worst enemy. Could have been through about five times if players could make a pass or take a decision.

Virtually every pass is behind the intended player.

Wrong again. We can’t afford to bring in 8 players without getting rid of 8 players. We are not Chelsea who could

Good half. Dovin, Kitching, Simms, Eccles standing out.

Feel for Asante. The bloke looks petrified. Not what you want from a striker. Literally getting in the way.v

With due respect, he can run and hassle. You can’t

Kitching adds so much to the team for me . His passing is quick through the lines , his tackling is robust and he is positionally very good .
Could give him the captaincy ? Might make him grow up ?
Aside from Kitching I thought Simms , Allen and Dovin all had solid halves . Allen in particular plays some very clever passes

I think Simms and BTA have done well and worked how you want a front 2 to play.

both clearly lacking on confidence though but they’ve been far from shit as a pair

Has Eccles been doing magic tricks in the hospitality section?

This has been bothering me for ages tbh. Kills all momentum and surely it’s not too much to expect pro footballers to know the basics.

After a poor start we’re deservedly in the lead and have been playing well. Yet still people can’t help but throw pelters.

Jockey Allen playing well-he’s surprised me in the last two appearances-still got it.

BTA meanwhile least said about how ineffectual he’s been the better!

I guess because he is a Striker that’s started a lot of games and scored is it 1 goal ? - ok guess silly me - I should not write off a non scoring striker that can’t play

We’ve played well second part of that half but it does have the feeling of a friendly this one

Is this Wednesdays first team? If so I can’t see how they’re not down the bottom. Fair enough away cup tie but they’ve not even tried to attack really.

Simms had barely scored this time last year. I think he could come good, if he can work on his composure. Still has time to develop

From our best 11? Wright, EMC, Sheaf, Bidwell, possibly Sakamoto.

He leads the line way better than Bassette . He allows the rest of the team time in behind when he stretches the defensive line

Dropped, transferred, dropped.

This is our first team. We aren’t resting players who have barely played and playing the likes of Rudoni and MvE.

If we get through let’s go out with a blast and draw Villa Away - then concentrate on league survival

Three of those are inured and the other two wouldn’t start in a back five.
