As Baird of the Land suggests though, if it’s a midfield three of JWP, Bragg and Downes, essentially you’ve got a recycling midfield and just one running player in Scienza. The balance looks wrong.

That was the surprise of the second half for me. With the injury to Downes and the abysmal first half put in by Bragg, you had to be worried. Fair play to young Bragg, it was a much more confident second half, and one which might kick start his season. Ward-Prowse looked immediately comfortable, although to be fair, once Cooper conceded that penalty the wind went out of Milwall's sails. So much to like about that performance. Nearly a hat trick for Larin; his two goals both top drawer. Azaz ran the show in the second half... Leo looking back to his best. Bree's best showing so far; he overlapped and combined well with Matsuki who justified Tonda's decision to start him at RW. The new centre back was impressive, calm, composed and his passing nearly faultless. Manning once again reminded us that despite being suspect defensively, he has such a magic left foot and attacking wing back instincts to recommend him. Happy days.

Could always play JWP and Matsuki in midfield if Flynn can't continue - Fellows at RW.

Very happy with the new CB; Bree so much better today and Larin, who looks so much fitter this season in class at this level. Bragg off at h/t surely.

Manning, Bragg and Wood are not good enough , Dont understand what Tonda sees in Bragg - its costing us.

He (THB) makes the team look so much better. Can't see it sadly.

Just a bit of fact checking. Charles scored 6 goals last season for Saints in all competitions. JWP scored 7 in his first season for West Ham; one from a corner. He didn't score a goal in the following two seasons.

Anyone ITK about his wages?

Think we should push the boat out for Falchener.
