Cannot fathom the manager’s decisions many a times. Why have your specialist rb on the bench and play Bennett out of position when he is at best very average, at worst very bad. Why continue sticking a striker at the flank when he isnt the tricky sort and looks suspect technically. And why Williams....

What’s the money on 5 straight losses, looking very grim now

Red card to Williams

Evans... gotta improve

Was wondering, Bennett now popping up on left and Williams bringing ball forward

Dack’s passing has been poor tbf

Yes. Downing

Nyambe on the bench. Answers on a postcard

I saw a clip of Jay DaSilva, LB on loan at Bristol City. Could be one target. here: Vid on some fan's tweet

been on the piss too much I hope we don't get to see 5 straight losses after 5 wins. kicker

hope the fog has cleared from my mind enough to pen this. if it's curtains for this season, I would stick with Raya for developing youth. LB's a problem but we have to play the better of Bell and Delboy- would prefer Bell but someone needs to get on his laid-back, relaxed stance. If it's about developing youth, get one of our young LBs in (Jack Evans anyone?). For RB, Nyambe should play as he's the specialist rather than Bennett plus also the point about gaining experience, youth etc. For CBs, well, Wharton, Platt, Grayson all out on loan, Tyler's probably next in line. Further up, I would think only one of Evans and Richie should be on the pitch-would prefer Evans slightly on his form this season. Travis, Reed for the other spot. For Dack, if he doesn't play, Rothwell should slot in. Conway should be our last resort and I do think we have JRC, Buckley etc. from U23s who we can test out. And ffs, if we are playing BB, at least let him have a go through the middle. He's pants at the flanks. Should test out Danny Butterworth if given a chance.

Not sure why it's not clear to TM that BB is not a winger ffs. Young players need confidence and should have played him through the middle more. he didn't score but the problems lie mostly elsewhere in this Reading debacle.

He is some player and still young at that level

Not sure why Bell was dropped for Williams.

Dack was injured before this match, might be the reason why. Luckily it was t Conway. Damn, they scored

Here comes K Palmer

Evens things out for not sending Travis off, ain’t it. Should put Arma right on him

Good free kick for Williams to head over. Can’t say it’s the first time

Not a bad move. Pity for Travis. I felt he shaded it over Richie

Travis walking a thin line. Had to cover Williams who missed a tackle

Williams bit shaky there

Needs a chance me thinks. We had severa players out on loan but used sparingly

Haven’t seen much of the Lithuanian lad at the U23 level to be fair. Vale was good, driving at Everton. Jack Evans coming back as well. other news: last season’s captain hardcastle has gone out on loan again and fisher too. Hardcastle reminds me a lot of Travis

A special kind. He’s a 19 year old playing with the U23s and not looking out of place. Some describe him as a right winger but seeing him play through the centre, he seems alright there

Nice left foot shot. Mols playing really well. Butterworth proving a pain in their arse up front. Hope we can blood some on the bench, the gibraltar kid and the Lithuanian
