Tyjon - not commenting either way but just on one incident (which of course is not the best basis for judgement I know) -he received the ball on the edge of the box and for me, a hungry selfish instinctive striker takes a snap shot, he had the time but just lazily laid it off. Early days for him obviously and I know he is highly rated. -

A bit shit that if the truth be told. Tavares the best of a very average bunch with some shockers thrown in by the keeper, the dead lad on the left (goal aside) and Montgomery who I cannot see anything in and haven't from the get go. -

Tavares, Axel, Miller look like decent buys, De neve is not good enough it seems. We look like a newly put together team, which we are. Montgomery needs to come off as does De neve even though he scored. It's not quite the doom and gloom some are making out I feel, there's potential in a number of the new guys, they all need to gel sooner rather than later however. -
I enjoyed the last 30 mins more than many seem to have. Keeper - will take some cojones to come back from that start Montgomery - schoolkid, completely at fault for their first. Miller - put him in the team; much better at playing/passing out than Hyam and that throw should get us 10 goals Wharton - I’d also put in the team. Pickering - Pickering Tavares - reminds me of Wharton Jnr; great awareness, always looking round; shows for the ball and knows what he wants to do; does it in one or two touches. Tronstadt - maybe he’s the one who has asked to leave Hendriksson - schoolkid I didn’t notice once Tyjon - mixed but the good bits were where it counted, set up both Pape’s chances De Neve - schoolkid who scores. Pape - Pape

If Montgomery comes out for the 2nd half, we aren't actively trying to win the game. Alebiosu needs to come on, or McLaughlin to move Miller. Tavares the standout, Tyjon and Axel trying to play 1 touch football, both could have had better halves, but the intent is there, all three always turning forward. Haven't had a player the style of Tavares for years. -

Yeah, nothing wrong with the back pass. He froze for some reason and simply gave them the ball. Hopefully it is a one off -

Not watching but at least encouraged that Tavares is getting some good reviews. -

Henriksson a threat but shouldn’t be playing as a winger. Wharton looks quite mobile. Sub Montgomery off. Tavares looks good, but Bradford happy to give him a lot of time on the ball. -

On their second goal, a bad back pass? Don't think so. More like a tool of a goalkeeper who thinks he is better than he is -simple first time pass available for him but preferred to take some touches as though he is some top international. -

A terrible start but improved as the half went on. I feel like the game is as much about testing out some of the youngsters and new signings as it is about progressing through to the next round. Of that list, Tavares has been the standout. He looks very good and championship standard. Henriksson looks like a very tidy little player who will be very good once he's fully up to speed. Really like Miller too, he's the type of no nonsense defender that I think does well here. De Neve is not up to it and never will be. Can run all day but has no ability and plays it safe by going backwards everytime. Montgomery doesn't look up to the standard required either. Tyjon does but physically not quite there. The GK is nervous, that's very clear. Hard to judge him on his error. -

Can we opt to take a throw instead of a corner -
"Let's talk about a new contract " "Ok , I want no less than £300k a week" "Fuck off" Is probably how that went.

Good first half from Tavares & Henricksson. Tyjon looked quite good at times. De Neve not good, but with all due respect, he took that goal very well. One change for me would be Alebiosu on for Montgomery. Before that goal I'd have said get Kargbo on too for DDN. Tronstad on a yellow bit risky. Don't want him picking up a second yellow and ending up suspended.

Well for me two things stand out. When we have the ball, the movement off the ball is poor hence the player who as the ball as very limited options. Two our forward are very poor we need another number 9 who can hold the ball up and whonas a good touch. And out wide players are at best average. Will we fix this I doublt it -

Correction, Doncasters 2nd 11 (they made 11 changes) are beating a fairly strong Boro (including Brittain) -

Henriksson and Montgomery are the worst right side we've had in some time. Montgomery clearly isn't ready for this level. In fairness to Henriksson he's threaded some decent passes when he's come central. Tavares looking decent dictating tempo. It's telling he and Miller have the confidence to play at this level, whereas others look far too tentative. -

Well that was a bollocks half. Shite. Tavares the only player who has impressed me at all (when I've been able to bare to watch this shit). Most of the rest poor, some embarrassingly so (Michalski, Montgomery, Henriksson, all looking miles off the pace). De Neve's first miss was embarrassing too, but he took his goal well. Gueye been ok, needs to take a chance though. Miller's throw problematic. The first 5 minutes was peak Venkys era Rovers. -

Yep - there was a Hibs fan on Twitter saying his throw-in is worth £1m alone. That's a good first touch and finish from the already much maligned DeNeve.
