I voted for G Cooper because he looked like being our most likely source of creativity, but I can see why Grant gets the Pasoti nod because he played above his usual level - which is always worthy of praise at our level.

Rather than being 'sloppy' I think Connor Grant was deceived by the quick feet of the Wimbledon player and as a result fouled him in a dangerous, edge of penalty box position. Grant did swing his arms after the event in frustration of being caught out.
Given a few more regular games, I reckon Grant could be the 'Gareth Barry' of Argyle in his contributions

It's a good question.
Ryan Lowe: Striker
Steve Schumacher: Midfielder
Kevin Nancekivell: Attacking midfielder
Rhys Wilmot: Goalkeeper
I'm not saying a striker can't coach defending and vice versa, but you'd think playing professionally at centre-back for 15 years - for example - would give you more tools to coach defensive principles than if you spent 15 years scoring goals.
It does seem to be a bit of a glaring omission.
Forget Gareth Barry, according to the Daily Mail today, he has been watching legendary midfielders like Frank Lampard and believes that they always get into a position to score and it is something that he wants to add to his game.Quintrell_Green":21bul5m1 said:WoodsyGreen":21bul5m1 said:There were very few consistent performers across the 90 minutes.
