Surprised Simms is not starting again, as good as Godden’s finishing is I’m still yet to be convinced that he works well in the current system.
I don’t think there’s much in tbh but I think if Godden doesn’t start scoring soon then Simms should come back in for him.

It really is over for Kelly then isn't it? If Torp can make the bench ahead of him so quickly then he must be going this window.

Just thinking that. Must be going somewhere on loan etc. dropping off the bench so soon.

Pleasantly surprised to see Torp on the bench

Probably gets a 2 minute cameo at the end of the game I'd say

Good, and I don't mean that in a bad way. Kelly has been brilliant for us for years and is a big part of our climb up the leagues, but there's a point you have to move on to progress.

I thought Simms might come in for either Palmer of Godden actually, but that bench is starting to look strong!

That has to be one of the strongest subs list we've had for ages. Some genuine quality there now.

Kelly has to move on now, he's been amazing for us, but time to move on.

Is that their keeper? Looks like he's got a debilitating condition.

Yes it’s him, recently signed on loan from Brighton, after spending first half of season at Oxford.

Fair enough selection. Godden instead of Simms is about right at the moment for me.

On loan from Brighton, the debilitating condition is the defence in front of him

Exactly as I predicted. It’s nice to see Torp involved

Not got a good feeling about this game. It’s strange as I’ve been looking forward to it all week but got this nagging fear they will do us today

Absolutely. Played well end of last year despite what people say. I think he’d be an excellent signing for someone in league one.

Can’t shake the idea we don’t win today I’m afraid. But couldn’t shake that last week either sooo…

It isn't down to fitness.

Robins stated that he needs to learn his defensive role or words to that effect. That will be mainly done on the training ground. Can't see him playing for several weeks at least.
Click to expand...

When I said fitness I was talking match fitness. All players come back fit I have also said he needs time to adjust. Fans also forget he, like any player joining has personal stuff to sort out.
If he is on the bench it will be mainly to acclimatize to the squad and match day experience in UK.

Bet Torp gets at least ten minutes. Just got a feeling he’s shown enough in training.

Depends on the score I suppose. If for example we are holding on to 1-0 lead he won’t be bringing him on

Not sure why there’s a belief a £2.1m signing is a liability TBH

I'm not sure it's quite that. Only that he's only just joined and as has been evident so far this season, it can take players a while to adapt. If we're winning, but it's tight, I can see the arguement for relying on more established players who know the system than risk a newer player if he isn't quite ready. Obviously only Robins will know, if he thinks Torp is ready, then we may well see him either way.

Don't think that it's because anyone thinks he's a liability, it because he'll still be building his fitness. It's essentially a pre-season period for him.
