Full of admiration for their performance yesterday - straight out of the Tony Pulis playbook. We used to be able to defend like that, but it's all been forgotten in the pursuit of a version of fantasy football by AP. We need to relearn those skills and fast - its not that difficult actually - you need organisation, discipline and leadership. Hopefully SA can rebuild these qualities and added to the goal power we possess, find a way out of this mess we're in.

With the team Liverpool put out Plymouth should have had a go, They sat back for 90 minutes and created nothing Liverpool were very poor. Would hate to see us play like that week in week out and the quality players in the Premier league would punish you if you sit back like that.

Actually they did exactly the right thing by achieving a draw and return home match against the scousers. Had they won and been drawn away against a less 'glamorous' side they would not have seen the big bucks they now look forward to in terms of tv income etc. Their expected bumper payday may well help them finance instant promotion. Good luck to them!

Plymouth are playing well in league 2. They went into the game with the confidence that they could play for 90minutes with messing up.

We don't have that confidence.

I wish this team had the confidence to see games out. I don't know what it is but as soon as we score we give up a goal immediately. The first half of most games we are a down right poor team and very hard to watch.
