Torp man of the match.

OHare decent goal.

Wrong changes made, DaSilva was miles off it when he came on and Eccles and Allen isn't the CM pairing.

I thought we played very well.

Imagine Vik instead of Simms... We'd have won that. If Wright scores by placing the ball into the corner when clean through it could have been very different.

If I were Robins I think I'd be planning to get two new strikers in summer and try to sell Wright and Simms. They may both go on to do very well but it's not working here. Their only merit is being better than a 31 year old Godden.

Fucking dreadful, the ball never ever sticks. Like a game of fucking pinball when it’s in to his feet

How you can say that about haji wright is insane 13 goal involvements in 30 games.

He just doesn't convince me. It's good that his stats bear up though, as we will get our money back. Maybe even turn a small profit.

There's a Vardy or another Vik, a Toney or an Ian Wright, out there somewhere in the world waiting to be signed.

Didn’t think either were a 5 TBH. Below par all around.

Collins 6 - still terrifies me with his unwillingness to catch
MVE 6 - seems off it in 1st half but came out sharp in 2nd
Thomas 6 -
Kitching 5
Bidwell 5 -
Torp 7 - a real player in there that's going to be big for us
Allen 4 - in an ideal world would have been taken off if we had match fit options. That great run followed by a terrible pass summed him up today
Saka 6
O'hare 6 - did well for his goal but too many times he is foregoing the easy pass
Wright 5 - going to be a few weeks before he back up to speed
Simms 5 - prefer him than godden but there's not much presence is there

Subs
JDS 3 - woeful and needs to be moved on in the summer
Eccles 6 -
Godden 5
Binks 6
Palmer 6 - he was bright when he came on and unlucky not to put us 2-1 up. Promises so much though but rarely delivers.

Well I very much doubt either Wright or Simms will be first choice strikers next season and given Goddens age he could be replaced also

Bidwell 5? On that basis Da Silva would be -1

What a weird take. Get rid of our player with the highest goal involvements for a 1 in 100 player. Sounds like solid plan.

13 assist goals etc is still not good enough
For 8mill outlay imo and as for simms the basic stuff is not good enough actually controlling the ball would help with some aggression

Wright is just back from injury, first start I believe. Once he gets back into the rhythm he'll be awesome for us again. Will hold down the left-sided forward player spot.

Thank you <pleased face emoji>. it's nice to be recognised as original but few can see just how innovative I can be.

And if Vik, Jamie, Ivan and Ian are one in a hundred then we shouldn't have too much difficulty in finding one. There must be one in my village! But I don't think it's Basil as he is 86 and only likes rugby.

Torp was once again our best player today. I think Torp and Sheaf will combine well next season.

As for Simms, if the ref had actually played the advantage correctly he’d have been in first half.

It was awful from the ref, but I think Simms was lining up to hit it first time rather than run through on goal.

I may well have misremembered though!

Collins has to either be more confident and start catching the ball, or be prepared to be second choice next season. Got away with a couple in the first half pushing or punching the ball back into play.4
And Simms was pants 2

Great chance that he has to bury
Same with palmer
Could easily have won and your scores would be 2 more each player

I think he should have done better for the first goal.

Thought we were pretty decent overall so not getting these scores

The only player worthy of a 5 is Kitching

The ref blew his whistle almost as soon as Simms got the ball so was hard to tell. Would have been a great chance

I thought Kitching played well. As for the incident, he had to make a tackle and he got suckered by the striker moving too fast. Wasn't a deliberate foul.

He looks a bit like he's had a bit of a setback in confidence, possibly just a lack of game as his finishing was looking more decisive in December

He got caught flat footed and square and then a rash tackle he was never going to win
