    I suspect he's partly lacking in confidence due to a shortage of game time. Not sure he'll ever be a brilliant right back but I think he'll be capable enough if he can get a run of games. Thing is FCD may sneak ahead of him.

    I thought we had a reasonable first half cracking goal from Watt and some good attacking play but missed chances . Second half also missed chances but Walsall defence held firm centre backs played well . Just one of those days when we missed chances disappointing.

    We failed to win because we missed very good chances. Chances we should’ve put away. In my opinion we played well and hopefully Robinson can play a supporting role to Cook when he gets up to speed.

    We created more than enough chances, just didn't take them. A Nahki Wells in this side would score 20+ this season.

    that is the problem. Current strike force need even more chances than we created

    The wingers are bringing so little no surprise when you look at the stats of Gilliead and Vernam just 1 goal from a combined 16 appearances is nowhere near good enough for them two

    In this formation wingers must be scoring goals as well as putting in crosses

    With respect. You started by comparing Threlkeld today to the Josh Wright incident. In that respect I suggest you have no idea. Totally different.

    Shocking header from Vernam.

    ANOTHER GOAL conceded down our right.

    Sorry can't agree with that. Gillead was excellent as he has been since arriving back.

    What did he do

    I've praised him for his defensive work before today but today he achieved very little never presented a danger that I can remember

    Apart from all the above-mentioned, what frustrated me towards the end was Elliot Watt receiving the ball around the half way line twice with acres of space in front of him to drive us forward but resorted to pumping diagonals which their back line easily dealt with. Don`t forget Adams was after an attacking midfielder in the transfer window but had to change his target for Angols` replacement. Watt for me doesn`t bring enough and the sooner we have Songo`o and Sutton in there the better we will be.

    I think Gillead is great to watch and plays some lovely football but seems to lack the end product he hasn’t scored yet and I don’t think he has an assist

    That’s what the game plan is to feed the wingers and that’s what Watt did

    Can't agree with that, if Angol was fit he wouldnt be playing.
