Antoni Sarcevic: Plymouth Argyle’s Midfield Enigma

Antoni Sarcevic: Plymouth Argyle’s Midfield Enigma

Antoni Sarcevic is a peculiar case for Plymouth Argyle at this moment in time. He is a player who, in all honestly, shouldn’t really fit into any of the midfield positions in Ryan Lowe’s system and yet here we are, just after an early season game that has maintained...

Ryan Lowe’s first game managing Plymouth Argyle on our own turf ended in success. It was not perhaps such a dazzling performance as last week’s, but a 1-0 victory over Colchester United continued the perfect start to the season. Alex Palmer, GK – 8...

Argyle show off stylish new attack at Crewe

It feels like a remarkable rarity to be feeling this positive when analysing a Plymouth Argyle game, and that’s not just because the match in Crewe was the first time the Greens have taken to the field competitively in three months. A far cry from the defensive and...

Argyle’s only home fixture of the pre-season campaign won’t be one that lives long in the memory. It was a fairly turgid affair that saw Bristol Rovers win 1 – 0 with a late goal from new signing Victor Adeboyejo. Neither team really looked like they got going...

Lessons Learned: Truro, Parkway and Torquay

Three pre-seasons matches for Ryan Lowe’s Plymouth Argyle, two losses. After Truro dispatched the Pilgrims a week ago via a fortunate winner, Torquay battered Argyle’s defence repeatedly and a further goal would not have been unfair. 13. Alex Palmer, GK...
