P. Chambers.
Strujik getting a full game for fitness.
No injuries for Tuesday night I don’t think.

N. Very average performance
Two deflections for both goals and a missed penalty by Strujik.
Comfortable for Millwall.

Positives: Out first 11 have naff all to worry about regarding their starting places :lol:

Negatives: Todays starters that may feel like they deserve to be starting (they don't).

We have no great backups anywhere on todays performance.

If Piroe gets injured, we have shot promotion.

P. We are out of the cup which according to the received wisdom is important.

N. Matteo Joseph looks like being unable to handle the pressure. Everyone can have an off game but everything that came his way was wasted. He should be buzzing after the club backed him in the January window..

Positive: Sam Chambers, but doubt we'll see him again this season
Negative: Sums up why we needed a couple of loans in January. Iheanacho for example was available. Reliant on no injuries to a thin squad full of internationals.

Pos - Less games to play in our charge for promotion.

Neg - Outside our first X1, we have very little in quality from what I saw from that lot today.

Not sure about that mate, every one of those players aside Chambers would start for any other Championship team, the problem was that that you cant expect them to come together and get a result against a well drilled team who know each others game.


We had loads of chances, their keeper played a blinder, it was individual errors by Schmit, Gully and Ampadu that cost us today.

Slot a couple of those into our starting 11 over the course of a season and you would not see any drop off in performance I reckon.

Perhaps it’s just an instant reaction I’ve had, just general frustration as I was travelling home from the game and when I reflect on it, I will feel differently.

However, today, that was just utter shite.

We can agree on that, someone used the word dour which fits as well.

Positive - Chambers debut

Negative - Outplayed, to many regulars out and the bench players could not cope with Millwall.

So many fans keep reminding us we have a strong bench,

Individually, we have a few.
