Also really liked Telalovic..

I've not written Axel off, in fact I accounted for why he might have performed poorly.. My point was, he has looked pretty poor thus far and saying he looks better than Hedges based off those two games is crazy.. If he'd scored that goal that Hedges scored against Watford a few years ago you'd he salivating.. I can't say I'm a huge fan of Hedges, he drives me mad. He's tidy, works hard but has appalling decision making.. I am not writing the young lad off. I really hope he comes good. It's only two games.. but by the very same logic, to say he's already better than Hedges is also jumping the gun.. Not convinced by any of the new recruits ATM.. call be sinical but buying cheap generally (not always)doesn't correlate with acquiring quality.. you need to spend money for good player's...

Tbf to the guy, he can’t have trained that much to even know where he should be in those defensive set ups. Either way, I want our attacking players to show attacking intent. We need to be able to hurt teams and I think, an undercooked Henriksson looked 10x more dangerous than Hedges.

Well clearly we did given Eustace sent Lowe scouting the next opposition I think a head coach with 2 assistants plus GK coach and 2 fitness coaches

Well JH! If Ismael is happy then I'm bloody happy! What a team we have!

Deffo another right sided attacking midfielder. Should have been sorted by now. Would like another forward, Travis and Pears replacements if they leave. Ismael has said we can replace anyone who leaves. We just 1 space for right sided attacking player. Don't have crystal ball

He looked more dangerous in 50 minutes vs Bradford, than Hedges has looked in every minute of his Rovers career combined. I’m talking about him seeing a pass, being in a position to thread a pass or taking a shot, having intention to play the forward in, running at speed into space and getting in front of a defender. Actually ‘looking’ like there’s a goal in you. I stand by my statement.

He's said makes Hedges looks like messi? Make of that what you will.

We're they actually questioned?

Neither was Abel Tarabat but Warnock made him captain

Until he leaves and doesn't say he doesn't want to.play he should be available for selection tho I understand your points you are making for sure. It was my team. We dont have another right wing/sided attacking midfielder player. Should have another by now.

Just to come back to this (I’ve a bee in my bonnet!) In my opinion, the head coach’s bonuses (and KPIs) should be linked only to results on the pitch. Was any explanation offered as to why the club believes otherwise?

You were pointing out some peoples initial opinions could be wrong. I’m just pointing out sometimes those opinions are proven correct. Also, who wrote him off? The comment was on his game last night, and if that poster thought he looked awful then what is he meant to do. Lie and say he was ok?

If your writing off a player after 2 games then football isn’t for you

Club is rotten to the core so Big club can have the win for all I care, this isn't Blackburn Rovers

So that the right thing to do then? Writing players off after their 2nd game, having literally just walked through the door? Gotcha.

I only used Shefki as a yardstick to say that Gueye wasn't going to score many for us. Both big strapping lads but not the best footballers, they both have larger than life personalities so easy to warm to them but if you need goals - well neither would be my first port of call. We defo need a striker or we're dead in the water, that's my point. If you have warm memories of Sheki then great but apart from his goal celebrations I have little else to get misty eyed over. Apart of the fact we were in the Prem then obs!

Step forward Ryan Hedges

Also, same people writing off Henriksson are the same people who wrote off Telalovic when he first came.

I'm in the unfortunate position whereby my daughter has split with her hardcore Rovers supporting partner and the almost 16 year old twins support Manure now. When I go, that's my lifetime support meaningless 😢

Depends if Palace lose Geuhi and Eze which looks likely and maybe Mateta aswell then if I was Wharton I'd be looking to move this summer they will struggle if they lose those players

Of course, there are always many factors and context. And stats are never the whole story. But I don't think there is much difference between the 2, but for me Shefki is better.

The 2017 side was a lot better than this..just hope theres three worse sides

I can see the fans turning on him (low hanging fruit). The problem is above him and he knows it. He'll continue picking up his wages for as long as he can. Another grifter.

How many more signings do we need Chaddy? How many do you think we will get?
