Gotta say I really like Thomas. Commanding, good ball player and organising the team. Future captain.

Da Silva and Ladibeudiere stand outs for me. Eccles very busy and very good in the main, just getting caught out a few times with some first time passing. Palmer a threat. Just needs to be disciplined now.

Is that MR's HT "shit sandwich" where he bollocks him for the sloppy bits?

Played very well, only thing missing is a killer instinct but that will come

Hard to tell from theee rows back. We seem to have had a decent half though. Where did MvE’s throws come from??

Palmer has been unbelievable. His weight of pass is exquisite

Yeah, some of the best passing football I’ve seen for a while. They’re set up pretty well at the back though, hopefully it’ll come early second half

Eccles and palmer have been quality

Palmer is a standout, everything positive is going through him. Eccles is playing well too but is too casual at times. He and Godden need to stop looking for free kicks with anything that isn’t obvious as Stroud isn’t going to give them. Wingbacks are giving us good width and pace.

Brilliant to watch. Technical quality is fantastic and way above last year. Proper attacking wing backs. And our bench is insane. Great things ahead.

Better than last year? Was stoke your only game?

Worrying how little Simms is offering. Even Biamou and Bakayoko caused more problems at this level.

He's got a lot of work to do.

Palmer had a great opportunity for a semi Hollywood pass out to VE in acres of space but bizarrely played it backwards to McFadz, his decision making is baffling

Yes the technical quality of our game and ability to keep possession is way above last year. Our passing and movement has been absolutely top class. If you can't see that you're as clueless as someone who might demand a taxi for our most successful manager in history. Oh hang on....

Decent performances all around but lacking a cutting edge. A few half chances, but feel Simms should have rifled that shot instead of side footing it. It would have gone to the top right corner instead of being low and was easily parried by their keeper. Need to win this.

Don't give his location away, the queue to suck his cock will cause crowd problems.

Ayari and Wright on for Eccles (who’s played decent) and Simms off in the second half to freshen things up

We look good today and fancy is for the win, our strong bench should make the difference and break the deadlock.

1-0, Simms or Wright to score.

Hamer (who you apparently never rated) and Gyo have gone. We move onto an exciting new style and brand with excellent depth.
O'Hare will be back.
Get over yourself and enjoy the future.

I was surprised that Simms started ahead of Wright but probably a good decision at the time to build Simms' confidence. If he scores it will be key for him going forward. I am not how much time he will be given before being subbed.

I don't think we will see him subbed before 60 minutes.

Enough quality on the bench to make changes now. Wank start to the half.
