And when there was opportunity to decrease the lead for half an hour in the second half the choices made were beyond poor. Adam Idah not acknowledging a decent travelling Swansea support didn’t go down well either at the end. Some would say the involvement of Josh Key and Cameron Burgess in this game was an error by Swansea head coach, Vitor Matos. Key especially. 1 Don't drop the baby ! Oh shit, click above.

He is a shocking player and though we wasn't putting up trees, his presence straight away changed how we played. Burgess is not immune from criticism, but Key has been the reason why we have lost alot of games. No time for giving him chances and building his confidence. Move on. |  | |  |

Yes, the sub cost us the game. But Matos gets a free pass for me. He put trust in Key and it wasn't just the goal, but the way Key looks lost, he has 0 clue how to close people down and his passing was worse I've seen. Proberly put Casey on that side or Parker as you said. I know Key can be seen as a an excuse why we lost, but literally as soon as he came in he changed the whole team and for the worse. How 1 player can have such a poor effect on a whole team is mad. Also I would like to see Bobby Wales given a chance over Idah. |  | |  |

I'm not the biggest Cullen fan, but he did alright, today. But Widell needs to start. Again can't fault Matos, he gave a player a chance that scored for us on Tuesday. I'm not as flat today with the result as I could see we are progressing in certain areas and using an excuse, let's remember, Matos has non of his coaches and in the process of seeing who fits the character in his team. Now if Matos does not learn and Key keeps playing, Idah is chosen over Wales and he doesn't learn then he will have issues. Personally I don't think the above will be the case. Irrelevant of the illness story with Key, Matos could see we needed to put Galbraith there. Today will be a reality check for Matos. And has to learn from this |  | |  |

The thing is if Key was injured we’d have to use someone else , so just replace him Even playing Ishe there would be an improvement or even one of the youngsters because they couldn’t be worse Doing nothing would be irresponsible as it’s costing us dearly |  | |  |

Realistically we need 9 Wins. With 27 games left. I am not saying I would be shocked but that would be a massive drop off if we didn't get 9 Wins. Especially under Matos who has shown signs that he is improving the team. Individuals are letting him down. Where we get 9 Wins is questionable. Not sure if I'm more worried now saying that 😲😲 |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

I actually think we will be ok but nobody can tell or be confident Anyone publically posting that needs a shoeing ( no offence) Pompey winning today seems to have gone be ver our heads There again , our forum super fans aren’t that bothered being more interested in dissing other fans Right back is killing us , sort that out and we will do fine We need to bin eom , he’s too lightweight He’s enthusiastic but ineffective We could see what Bob wales is about too Not ready ? Why forking buy him We need results and now Get the present right and the future will look after itself |  |
