    You’d hope so but Swansea and Blackburn both tried to kick lumps out of us.

    He always pulls that one about going to games. Desperate to feel superior. Let him moan and keep on smiling.

    Strange one this season, usually a side powers in with serious form

    Saying that, Millwall still can…

    Win the next two with our best possible team and we can hit the ground running.

    Aye, you’d like to think we’d be close to full strength next Saturday

    His pace always provides a cutting edge. Him Isidor and Mayenda in the same side would be brutal

    Not that they always win though, recently its been the teams who were comfortably in playoffs a few games before who rested players.

    That's snide. I don't. I reflect this poster. I also talk to him on twitter. It's not like that.

    Be better.

    I’m not sure where he plucked the fact I don’t go to games at all from to be completely honest anyway :D

    He was saying my opinion didn’t count because I’ve wasn't at the game the other week …

    … you weren’t calling him snide then.

    “I’d listen if you were at the game. Sat in Scotland talking ****e as per.”

    My takeaway from the match is that we really missed our over lapping full backs in Cirkin and Hume. Watson had a better game and he got applause from where I was sitting. Definitely a player there in Aleksic, the lad just needs games. Thought Anderson was ok too. Wilson definitely off the pace though

    Essentially yeah, no coincidence that no matter how much some people criticie cirkin and his form - we are much much better with him there and he makes any LW that plays better too.

    I’m going to continue to defend Isidor to the hill

    yes I want to see more in different areas of his game but his lack of goals recently comes from a lot more than just him. It’s a squad problem

    Honestly I’m losing every bit of confidence.

    Rotated team or not. We had a strong team on from minute 60 and still offered zero threat.

    It’s **** and embarrassing. Players scared to shoot or gamble in the box. That’s why we don’t score goals.

    Not convinced at all.

    Next two games are huge for me. If we use a strong 11 and still struggle to score. I can’t see us getting past the semis

    I really want to defend him as you know I love him but he’s offering absolutely nothing. Mayenda is dangerous everytime he is on the pitch no matter where he plays as he creates his own chances
