Not much quality from either team so far tbh, a few poor passes. I think this game may end 0-1 to somone or 0-0.

I think KP should come on when the times right, probably for Bakinson. 

I'd like to see Williams play more games with Wells, think Williams can provide the balls Wells can make runs for.

BBC claim we have had 1 shot on target, can't say I recall it?

Think it was Matty James who had a tame shot from distance which curled just wide (their ‘keeper had it covered).

EDIT: I misread your post ? Must’ve been Weimann then.

First half observations

A fairly even half although Millwall bossed the opening 15 minutes and looked lively / dangerous. We then got into the game a bit more without ever really threatening

We had a huge let off on 31 minutes when Afobe should have buried it and he had another decent chance on the cusp of half-time

Our passing has - yet again - generally been poor

Baker’s substitution on half an hour a concern

They have delivered some dangerous corners

Ref has had a great half, he’s let the game flow and been almost invisible

Pretty vanilla half from us, with no memorable moments

Jay has delivered a couple of decent crosses, hopefully the knock he picked up just before half-time isn’t serious

Just felt like a mid table scrap between two well matched sides. Both had spells, ours in the middle of the half, Bents having to make the better saves. Benik looking the most likely here to get one.

Not much in it, crying out for a bit of quality.

Not a lot in that first half. Weimann had the best chance, seizing upon a missed header which put him clean through on goal and he failed to get a shot off. Bentley made a couple of good saves to thwart Afobe.

Impressive 45s for both Williams and Dasilva; Martin and Bakinson both watching the game pass by. Pring in the back three is a concern, but I’d have Wells and Palmer on pretty sharpish IMO. It’s there for the taking.

Played well in patches with Baks delivering good passes to Weimann, Martin and DaSilva. Far too many crosses into the City box and we definitely lost concentration following Bakers substitution, ball watching to allow Afobe a one-on-one. However, good shape, and solid tackling, but need to be far better in possession.

A bit disappointed with our lack of quality at times.  Millwall aren't that good, we are surrendering possession too easily at times.

Would be very tempted to replace Bakinson with Wells and move Weimann into the left midfield role.

We are a bit deep, and this means James is deep to screen, and therefore their midfield has a bit too much time.  Can get us 5-10 yards further up and then we feel joined-up.
