Plymouth Argyle 2026/27 League One Preview
Tom Cleverley’s first months at Home Park have produced a side that swings between the emphatic and the erratic. Plymouth have won 3-0 at home to Barnsley, 4-2 at Blackpool and 3-2 at Doncaster, but also lost at Leicester, at Stockport and at home to Burton. Four wins from eight leaves them fourth.
The shape is a straightforward 4-4-2, with Ronan Curtis and Harvey White supplying from wide and deep – between them they have taken 43 corners and six direct free-kicks – and a front pairing of Will Evans and Aribim Pepple. Pepple and Oliver Irow lead the scoring on three apiece, which speaks to how evenly the goals have been shared.
Argyle took 73 points last season and still only finished eighth, a reminder of how unforgiving this division has become. Cleverley has more attacking threat at his disposal than that; if the defence can stop conceding in the volume it has, the play-offs look a realistic floor rather than a ceiling.

Plymouth Argyle’s set-piece specialists
- Penalties: Aribim Pepple
- Free-Kicks: Harvey White, Ronan Curtis
- Corners: Ronan Curtis, Harvey White
Ronan Curtis has taken 24 of Plymouth Argyle’s corners to Harvey White’s 19. Harvey White has had five of the direct free-kicks. Plymouth Argyle are yet to be awarded a penalty, so the taker is unproven – Aribim Pepple, their leading scorer, is the likeliest candidate.
