Totally agree, second half we were easily the better team. Eccles could have two easily but they were straight at the keeper. Ref gets a 1 for a. Absolute howler!!!These ratings are ridiculous.
I thought best performance of the season.
Really feeling positive. Absolutely battered them 2nd half. Against a top 8 team.

Subs changed the game.
Not seen it back yet but lots of bodies in front of him so doubt he saw it until it was on him.Wilson surely should have saved their goal
A comedy of errors really. Ball given away needlessly, several other chances to clear or put a tackle in, defenders getting in each other's way and then just standing and watching as the opposition pick their spot in the 6 yard box. We always seem to have an incident like that waiting at least once a gameWilson surely should have saved their goal
To be honest he looks like captain material once Kelly and McF depart.I think we've signed a potential star in Latibeaudaire. Aside from him playing many roles very competently , he is assured and confident in possession and looks to lead on the pitch .
Think he will be invaluable to us for the coming seasons
Think it will be him or KitchingTo be honest he looks like captain material once Kelly and McF depart.
I think Binks is an excellent player, so if Kitching is any kind of improvement on his full debut, I'd be more than happy.Thought although we dominated we were solid but not spectacular. 3 shots on target all game says a lot.
Wilson - 6: Not much to do, scared me shitless once when the ball when through his legs. Otherwise fine.
Thomas - 5: Scares the crap out of me.
Fadz - 6: Solid enough
Kitching - 6: Looks OK. Wouldn’t say a massive improvement on Binks though
Saka - 7: Needs to drive more. He’s got the ability to do it. Him and MvE check back a lot so maybe instructions.
Eccles - 7: Good game, should have got rid for the goal but shouldn’t have got that far. Longer range passing needs work but good to see him shooting and driving forwards more.
Allen - 6: Not a CM. Good when we’ve got the ball at offering an option and moving the ball quickly, but no physical presence and no real defensive contribution for a DM.
Ayari - 6: Better. Starting to see the player in there. Still looked off Championship pace a couple of times and his shooting certainly isn’t Hamer, but promising.
Simms - 6: Feeding off scraps again, looked the best of the three today but also looked like he won’t score in a million years (like the rest)
Wright - 4: Fucking run. So sick of him lounging about. Can forgive form and confidence. Have a real issue with lack of effort.
Binks - 7: Excellent again, particularly when we’re on the ball.
MvE - 7: Big impact, basically his goal. If he had strikers and midfielders who actually wanted to score he’d get a ton of assists. Best delivery of our wide men. Love how he pumps the crowd up too.
Lats - 7: Good cameo in midfield. Should have started there. Have is the bit of steel we were missing without Kelly and got forwards well too.
Godden - 6: Pressed well, missed a few simple passes that would have set us free. Also didn’t look like scoring. Also probably not his fault.
WHY? Have we not got the Living on a Prayer/Latibeaudiere song going? Just why?
We’re still trying to get through the 15th verse of the Sakamoto song on YouTube - that key change is a nasty one.WHY? Have we not got the Living on a Prayer/Latibeaudiere song going? Just why?

I obviously wasn't at the same game as you Eccles 4 and Allen 5. According to BBC stats.we had 3 shot on target and Eccles had 2 of those.I thought we did far better in midfield today . IMHO lack of movement off the ball from our front 2 let us down(closing down and trying to lose their marker).More than once Allen and Eccles looked up to make a forward pass and had to be content passing sideways because no forward pass was on.Wilson 6

You seem to have developed a strange obsession with my football opinions!Pathetic , not surprised though
Not really as you're consistently stubborn once you've formed an opinion on a player . Eccles a 4 can be explained I suppose , same as Latibeaudaire and others in the recent past ?You seem to have developed a strange obsession with my football opinions!
I hope he found you after the game and personally apologizedEccles was at fault for their goal and just didn't do enough for me
Not stubborn at all. Lati was very good today when he came on and has been in recent appearances, my main criticism of him was his seeming lack of mobility but he looks better now, maybe a fitness thing.Not really as you're consistently stubborn once you've formed an opinion on a player .

No chance..its nice you take such an interest..just a bottle of Malbec. Caught covid few weeks ago so the warm red stuff helps.Fair play, a weekend off the beer

In regards to Bobby thomas , it's amazing what you miss really , I focused on 1 poor pass too much because he's had a stormer
He is a good defender but he can dither on the ball and make the wrong choice at timesThats shocked me i thought he was poo. Again

I thought it was better from him. Took the positives of his previous performances and cut out the big mistakes, although there were a couple of times he got caught on the ball again, but got away with it.Thats shocked me i thought he was poo. Again
