Simms in from start. Wright on left Thomas, Kitching and Bidders all back (did not appreciate just what a difference Thomas makes until he came on yesterday). Lati or Eccles? Lati if he can play like he did 2nd half yesterday. Bit of an ask tho. Get the ball to Sakamoto when he has a chance to...

But it is exactly what he did today - parked outside the box, giving Millwall a hard time. I was as surprised as anybody

I am afraid I am going to have to say goodbye to two of my favourite players - Palmer and Eccles. They have to be 'squad' from here on. Torp has changed the whole mix of midfield

On the basis of today I might consider Lati in midfield but tell him to be aggressive and drive forward...

I think he scored the penalty almost before he had even kicked it. The goalie was absolutely convinced it was going to his right, really went for it. It must be in the body shape as they run up to the ball. As you run up, if going to the shooter's right, the shooter instinctively leans a bit...

Da Silva is not Championship standard, period. Certainly not for a team challenging for the Play Offs

He didn't play well today. Endlessly exposed. Had I done ratings, 5 at best. Mind you MvE only a little bit better

They are, but we are good on the break - like the second goal. As others have said in the past that means we are suited to away games but not so much at home when we are expected to press and dominate. Plymouth's defence is a leaky as one of Francis Drake's old boats. With Hardie and Whittaker...

I think I was at a different game to some of you.... I thought it was an average performance with a few bright spots. Had we scored at the start, it could have been different. 1. Robins' selection almost cost us the game. Three of the back four have not been regular starters and Da Silva in...

Collins - All those nervy kick outs that barely reach half way...He should be replaced as a high priority next season.

...but minus two key players in Sheaf & Kitching, and two strikers who are misfiring, Godden & Simms.

He played Lati, Eccles and O'Hare against Bristol. Not trusting his fitness he brought Torp on later. Playing Lati totally in line with MR's 'safety first' approach. Hope to be proved overly gloomy

After Bristol, If Lati plays in midfield I will be very disappointed. But sadly I expect he will. I would have Vik, Josh and Callum myself It is commonly being said that Saka needs a rest. I just wonder if teams have done their homework in advance and have worked out what he does. What we are...

It is absolute tosh that Mucca Mad Boy's post is absolute tosh.....

We will need to have 12 players on the pitch if so

It seems to me Callum has always put quite a high priority on getting game time but also to play at as high a standard as possible - choosing us over Villa, and opting to leave now. So his options at the end of the season are 1. Any club in the Prem, even newly promoted ones - he leaves. Fool...

2nd Question Given a hypothetical choice of Hamer, Callum, Sheaf, Torp (in say 6 months time), Allen, Eccles and Palmer, what is the ideal midfield three? Curiously, I venture O'Hare, Hamer and Sheaf It's going to be EMC, Sheaf and Torp

Two questions, here is the first. Of the four goals, would we have been unhappy to have them scored against us? I venture Wright (unmarked free header) and Palmer (not closed down) would have made this blog a bit cross. Palmer's pass to O'Hare was exquisite but even so I suspect should not...

Is Palmer a 'flat track bully"? Flatters against weak opposition only to deceive against the better teams?

Simms should have started at Sakamoto's expense imho, but hey ho what do I know.
