Really? Szmod was a lot of people’s MOTM today - everything good came through him.
I love Chappers, but he rushed things against Brum and today. Sammy every week for me - looked like a different player in that number ten role. |  |

Different players with different strengths.
Szmodics was a pressing machine today, arguably our man of the match. Personally I think Chaplin is more effective as one of the finishers as he needs space to operate in. |  |

Szmodics touched the ball 24 times all game. Chaplin had 18 touches in 25 mins. We do look more fluid as a creative force with Chaplin than Szmodics, IMO of course. I admire Szmodics' pressing and energy but we need more guile to get the best out of Philogene, Clarke and Hirst. |  | | |

I think Chappers brings other players into the game more definitely, but this was the first game in months that I felt we were playing with a proper number 10. Smod’s link-up with Hirst was great. | |

I don't recall them linking up much whatsoever? The game always seems to pass Szmodics by in our system. I'm not really sure he's a good fit for us full stop, but he's here and I'll back him if he starts over Chappers. | | | |

Hirst played him through for the chance where he hit the post, and I’m pretty sure there were a few other chances too.
Game of opinions eh! | |

I thought the introduction of Chappers gave us a boost and made us look more incisive, but I missed Sammie’s highlights, so you can ignore me. |  |

Odd post, completely different players and styles. Chaplin brings others into the game, while Szmodics looks to break and create chances.
Chaplin came on when players like Clarke and Philogene went off so became the creative hub, with the wide men then looking to get in behind the fullbacks, prior to that Philogene and Clarke tried to move inside and create space for Hirst and Szmodics to run into. |  | | |

Definitely agree, very different players.
I do think we are crying out for a little bit of creativity at the minute that we just aren't getting from Szmodics or the midfield two as they bed in.
Chappers just has an eye for a pass. He has that ability to play that pass round the corner into space and get someone in behind that you don't get with Sammie. Take that pass to Ogbene towards the end of the game, yes the game was more open but we had been crying out for that.
I'd personally play both next weekend. Szmodics on the left for his pressing away from home, Chappers in the middle to knit it together and Philogene on the right for that ability to unlock a defence. | | | |

Both should play, both outstanding at this level.
Szmodics inside left, Chaplin centre. |  | | |

I thought Szmods was unlucky today. Plenty of endeavour, desire, and creativity, but that shot off the post summed up his day.
I can see him hitting some excellent form if he just keeps doing what he is doing.
But having both him and Chappers fighting for the no. 10 will only be good for us, at the end of the day. |  | | |

I agree with your conclusion.
It's not Chaplin v Szmodics, it should be Chaplin v Clarke. | | | |

Both have their strengths and both had decent games! I would be keen to see Szmodics start on the left and Chaplin in the 10 role. Only drawback to that is not having fresh legs to bring on in the 10 role. |  | | |

Two very different players.
Chappers dropped into our own half to get the ball and be a play maker
Sammy is a support striker who's job was to press be high and be available.
Hence my post yesterday about needing a ball playing cm who can bring Sammy more into the game as that support striker. |  |
