I know that Garrett didn't get off the bench today for Bristol Rovers. -

We loose an easy outlet - it makes a massive difference when you have a big CF that the ball sticks to upfront. In an ideal world you'd have a like-for-like replacement for him. When we bring Ohashi on we have to change the way we play. -

After the wailing and gnashing of teeth that there was no life without Szmodics we went away to a very strong Championship team and got a point. So yes, I'm giving the team credit for that. There were no 8s, but I thought Ohashi, Gueye, Tronstad and Hedges all deserved 7s. If you score or assist you deserve a boost in your rating - the aim of the game is to score more goals than the opponent of course. Brittain would get a 7 if either of his CBs or his GK had covered for his error - sadly they didn't. -
Sam Szmodics-Your thoughts?

Watched that the other day - it's been quite the transformation. He turned into a clinical finisher overnight. -

A draw away at a side that finished in the Playoffs last year, a day after we sold the Championship's top goal scorer, and not a single Rover scores above a 6 - and you think that's a fair assessment? Curious. -

Three quality finishes in three matches now. -

Honestly I swear that's happened every single match for years - probably since BBD left (not that he was fast, but he was quick enough). I know teams advance scout obsessively and look at the metrics, but it always seems to take them some time during the match against Rovers to go "ey up, they've got no pace, let's push up". To be fair I think the problems started occurring after half time when Gueye was clearly out of steam. He was stretching them before that.
