Signs of improvement but woefully lacking any punch.

Holy - passable keeper for this league.
Full backs, both good players but don’t have the legs the way PL expects them to go up and down the flanks.
Toto- great bloke but an absolute liability, every time a player goes through he gives away a penalty. Time to go.
Mcguiness unlucky to score but still prone to make mistakes.
Dozzell- was not in the game and gave away silly free kicks
Bishop- good on his day, the trouble is he is not having many, either injured or not in he game.
Downes- looked more interested in fouling opponents and barging them than playing the ball.
Judge- good last couple of games but returned to lots of running and nothing to show for it.
Drinnan- not good enough to play on his own up front. Needs a partner, which won’t happen.
Edwards- our best player this year when fit. Today never in the game apart from last ten minutes

Nolan. Only player to show ambition and controlled aggression when he came on.
Sears. Time to move on, won’t play enough and if he does it will be out of position.
Thomas- showed glimpses of what he can do, but we will soon sort him out to stop that.

unbalanced and punchless

In defence of Toto, this was the the top attacking unit in the league. One mistake by him with a player moving at pace in the box, and we lost the game because of a mistake by McGuiness. Has to be better than when Wolfenden was playing (what has gone wrong with him this season?) when bottom of the table teams were getting a series of free shots and headers inside the box.
Our problem is not the defence but the lack of goal threat. Drinan did a lot of running and held the ball up quite well outside the box, but didn't look a threat inside it penalty area. A lack of penetration out wide didn't help – at least until late on when Thomas came on and Edwards suddenly started to look more effective. Nolan also seemed to add a lot late on.
Overall a better performance and probably could have gone either way – unfortunately Peterborough got the luck.Going to have to keep improving if there is any chance of a top six place.

Just keeping possession ian't enough, we need to get into their penalty area.
