    good shout this. It’s easy to say Watson and Isidor aren’t doing their jobs defensively but I’m not convinced Mundle and Roberts do any better whilst our shape and defensive set stays as it is

    Agreed. Not scared of the shirt is in itself a massive thing.

    Yeah they are caught between pressing the centre back and following the wing back. Tactical issue not a personnel issue for me.

    Hope he hasn't dropped him for a bad game at the weekend and just rotating the squad with him coming back in for Coventry, Isidor doesn't look a winger for me as he's more involved upfront. Hopefully mundle and Roberts comes on around the 60 and we start pushing them back and not trying to run back defending their runners

    Same as Rigg looks like he's been doing it for years right from the off.

    He def has, I want him to run at his fullback a bit more but him n Hume have linked up well

    The defensive work is so big in our system and him n Isidor are really struggling with it at the minute

    For his 1st ever start in the championship the lad is showing he belongs

    She's the best female pundit/co-commentator imo. Much better than Izzy Christiansen, Karen Carney, Alex Scott etc.

    I don't think she is just the best female co-commentator either. She is better than numerous blokes!

    Explain to me why he goes down holding his face? His boot missed him by about 2 foot!

    How can you get a free kick for a kick in the face when our player is a yard away from him?

    Arm across the face to stop him catching the ball? Linesman looking straight at it

    I've counted 3 fouls on Watson and he hasn't got one of them
