Aimson down injured
Been on the end of two or three late tackles. All unpunished.

[Insert City player name] seems to be already on holiday.

Hope we improve in the second half.

Basically we cannot handle their physicality. Cheick not at the races and Purrington struggling.

Not creating enough at the other end although Richards and Watts are playing well.

I disagree. Think Watts has been excellent. One of the brighter ones
He's been awful for me this half but hopefully can inprove second half.

I am with east_mid on this one, think he has been poor.

Formation wrong. Selection wrong. Purrington seems to be playing inside Diabete which is odd? Wildschut doesn't work as wing back so that left side of ours has been a big problem and can see us changing to a 4 back.

Don't like Watts at all. Alli does OK but is very raw. Sinasolo can make errors like that every game for the rest of the season if it means he's back here next season... But it has to stop.

Vale winning the physical battle quite comfortably and I can't see us coming back from this. Think I'd have Jules on now.

Need a bit more steel in midfield not sure Richards should be playing so deep, at least we have Kite or Borges on the bench to give us that

Changes I’d like to see over the 2nd 45:

Rankine for Niskanen
Borges for Watts
Kite for Richards
Jules for Purrington
Vinny for Alli (and Wildschut or Harris up top)
