Mayor loves to dribble with the ball. Broom likes to make runs off the ball.

Two different players. Mayor quality is in a wide position. Look how easy he beats a player and gets a cross in that results in our goal. Broom has different, but equally as good qualities.
The difference last night was that Mayor got to the goal line on several occasions and did something with it. When running direct he had shots. What has frustrated me in the past is that he would beat the same man twice and have little end product.

His low goals scored wouldn’t bother me if he gave better service to others more often.

Credit where due though, much better imo.

You've got a funny way of justifying your comments. By that I mean, every post of yours has 0 justification. You just say 'mate ur talkin nonsense'. Borderline amusing. Well actually not. Please at least give it a go will you.
I just get sick of people slagging off one of our best players. In my opinion most are just like sheep 🐑 and have no idea what they are talking about. When DM puts in a great shift they all go quiet! Your posts bore me if I’m honest and it’s so easy to make my point with a few words and I don’t have to justify my comments to you. I hope you enjoyed the second half

Possibly due to new instructions from the new manager?

Mayor is definitely offering more than Broom at the moment. I'm sure there will come a time when that reverses, but that's the joy of having two very good players competing for a starting spot. You don't have to pick a side.

My thoughts on Mayor are well documented and nothing has changed in that respect.For me Broom gives us better balance as a team as proven by his inclusion in the team that went 16 games unbeaten.Lowe had a knack of trying to fix things that weren't broken e.g.Jephcott and Hardie up front and bringing back Mayor instead of leaving him on the bench.

We started with Broom last night, we looked better with Mayor. We started with Broom against Charlton, we looked better with Mayor.

I like Broom a lot, but I don't agree with the view, anymore anyway, that we automatically look better whenever he's playing.

People are allowed to criticise Mayor if they want. I always try to justify my comments. 3 assists in 53 appearances at L1 level. I don't think it's good enough. Do you? I haven't seen you come back with anything. But apparently I am the sheep. My posts bore you? You need to have a read of your own. You never actually say anything.

And finally, I've praised Mayor on occasion when I felt he deserved it. But you ignore that don't you? Absolute doughnut you are. Clearly some overhyped 14 year old.

Last night Mayor was on the left hand side of the pitch just about to receive a pass from Conor Grant. He drove inside and left the defender for dead as he crossed it near the by line. That is what he is good at dribbling with the ball. That is what good wingers do. They are often inconsistent but can change a game.

Broom on the other hand is everywhere. Makes runs all over the pitch. Has good work rate and energy. A proper midfielder.

The problem Argyle have are the wing backs lacking any attacking threat in terms of pace. Last night until Garrick came on we didn’t have a threat down our right hand side. As soon as he came on his pace started to impact the game.

The only way in a 3-1-4-2 setup we can accommodate Mayor is by playing in as CM/CAM behind the two forwards. Yet just like George Cooper, who isn’t a wing back, l feel both of them are proper LW/LM or RW/RM. So this is an issue our new manager will have to figure out with these guys. Maybe Cooper can play in the CM/CAM roles.

However, last night Argyle came alive when Mayor and Garrick got wide.
