    Its ****, but going back to what I said before the Millwall winner. This is now a good test of whether or not Eckhart is really the right man. There was always going to be a result like this, now we can see if he can pick them up before offering a permanent deal.

    Should have changed the system, not just the personnel. I'd have like to have seen Matsuki and Oyekunle to see what they had to offer.

    First 10 we looked like we may repeat a good performance, then wall got a grip.

    It was like a Will Still game.

    Wholeheartedly agree - Tonda left the subs too late and there was some very tired legs out there but Aribo's contribution was truly awful and an oversight by Tonda for bringing him on.

    Not really a game changer though.

    Why isn’t he?

    He hasn’t had a single chance to change a game, so how could we possibly know that he isn’t?

    If he isn't being picked by two different managers now, there must be something he's not doing for them.

    I understand that, but last time he was given a chance he was energetic and scored a belter. At least give the lad a chance to influence a game

    I can understand why he brought Aribo on, as he has helped sure up before due to his strength, but he was awful today.

    I think we missed Charles/Downes massively. Obviously great to have Romeu on, but he hasn't played a competitive game in months.

    Let's give the oppo some credit, they were superb and we were a bit off, it can happen and losing narrowly at the Den this season is no disgrace.

    I thoroughly enjoyed the match as a spectacle.

    Definitely missing them, but was encouraged by Romeu thought he looked like he had that extra bit of class when he came on for me. Particularly when he shouted at Arma for not chasing the ball he played through for him

    I don't think we were that bad TBH. I thought Millwall were good and credit to them. We should have seen it out for a draw but I'm not going to lose my **** over today.

    Oh absolutely, Romeu will get up to speed quickly, I just think it compounded our lack of Charles/Downes today.
