Broadbent made a fatal error in the game - no doubt. But he's been arguably our best player in the last two games.

He's young and needs time. Can't just write a player off when he's only just starting to find a run of games. This is where we need an experienced head in midfield to help him. For me Bailey isn't a captain. He's had one year in the football league. It's a different beast to non-league. I'd look to give Westbrooke a run if he's fit.

Anderson, I can see more why he's questioned. He's been here 6/7 years now and his limitations haven't improved.

But as someone above said, we can talk all we like about Broadbent's error but we should have been out of sight before that and keeper aside everyone had a nightmare. Bailey for example barely got anywhere near a single Wimbledon midfielder and when he had the ball was so slow it was ridiculous.

Olowu needs questioning over whether he's actually fit or not. McGrath's worst performance in a Rovers shirt so far. Hurst needs to decide if he wants to improve or stagnate. And don't get me started on Gibson - would love him to not just run straight into the defender at least once.

These games happen. The worrying part is it's been coming and wasn't overly surprising.

I don't think McGrath is suited to moving further left which is what we do when Tom comes back in. Moving Jay out the middle also leaves us more vulnerable at the back. If changing to 3 we should leave McGrath in the centre, Olowu right, Tom/Senior left.

Senior at the moment is one of the first names on the team sheet for me. Even playing in a back 3. People overlook his aerial ability because of his size but he’s actually really really good in the air. Surprised he doesn’t get more recognition on here.

Broadbent is not Lg1 ‘material’ & hopefully that’s where we’re heading come May. Just my opinion.

Lg1 will be a step too far for Anderson again, in my opinion.
