Even though Struijk was caught napping in the build-up for their penalty & also missed a golden opportunity to equalise. Pascal wasn't the only one whose efforts were shot straight at their keeper. Feeble finishing cost us today.
Well he also got a block in to save a certain goal. His intervention looped it over the bar. I do not like PS getting exposed the way he did one on one . It is the system we play, risk and reward etc but he also can struggle against pace. Need amps back, he is the one player we have who cleans up so many counters by the opposition.
Incidentally, I am not criticising people’s choices, we all see the game through a different lens, it was a general question.

I prefer Sam, even though Byram is playing out of position.
Depends for me. On games where we are on top and he has some space Firpo comes into the game and can be dangerous. When we are struggling he is very safe and does not have an impact. The only time I have ever seen him beat a player with the ball was when he danced past Shacks when we played the Blunts. But we were on top.
Sam is much more technically gifted and brave in possession, but he does not have a left foot.

Sam is a better defender, (good in the air too) he has also scored three goals in his limited appearances over the last two seasons, as opposed to Junior's one solitary goal.
