Odd game. Don't think we have played particularly well but Boro surprisingly poor. Torp probably the pick of the bunch. Need to be really disciplined second half. Maybe DaSilva on for Rudoni after 60, purely due to the yellow. Also would like to see Bassette running at the that defence.

Exactly. He has only started 4 Championship matches. He has adapted from non-league to League 1; so he needs some time to take it up a level. He showed against Blackburn that he can cause teams problems. Probably needs that first goal to give him more confidence. You could see the delight for...

He does give us something different. He doesn't seem to be as quick as l thought, but he is very difficult to get the ball off with his strength and close control. I don't see him as a wing back - just don't think his defending is good enough. Shame we didn't buy Harrison Burrows to continue...

Latibeudiere was the same v Preston. Some really good, aggressive defending. He is one player who is willing to get hurt for the team. He is also pretty good in the air, despite his relative size. If he doesn't win the header he uses his body well to make it difficult for the opponent. I know he...

Today he played with more determination and it made a huge difference. It mirrored the rest of the team who for some reason were on it throughout. I don't understand why this isn't always the case.

I agree. Thought it was the best performance by a referee this season.

I think Sakamoto's first start in the central position was promising. It means he can move across the pitch and as we know he can cross with either foot. Despite his size he holds onto the ball really well, which really helped today. His energy also made a difference. He made some costly errors...

Wow. That's more like it. Rudoni was superb off the bench. Binks very good second half. Best performance of the season from Wright and Simms.

Bizarrely, that has to be our best first half of the season. Sheaf excellent, Simms and Van Erwijk much improved. Sakamoto at fault for penalty and slow getting out for second goal but he holds the ball up so we'll and links the play in doing so. Latibeudiere has had two cracking tackles...

All started from recklessness from Kitching again

Desperate dabbling or Mark masterstroke?!

This has to be our tallest side for a long time. Sakamoto and Van Erwijk the only players who aren't close or above 6ft (if I am correct)

The only reason I can see Simms starts is to help deal with the aerial threat defending set pieces. If Binks is at LB, it will be interesting how he fairs.

With and without the ball?

Because I would choose a team that play with intensity and drive.

Who would you put above him this season? I would like to think my knowledge of football is pretty good. Not too sure about yours based on that comment.

I personally think Eccles has been one of our most consistent players so far. Today, I think was probably his worst performance. It doesn't speak volumes but so far he is probably our player of season.

I do like Dovin. He is athletic and his handling is good. I do feel concerned though about some of his errors (this one and before Coventry) being perceptual.
