[Archived] Rovers Playing In Sydney!

[alexanders]

Great run and play by Rovers. Horrible last pass from J.R

[RibbleValleyRover]

Robbo is looking really lean, thinnest I have ever seen him. Perhaps some truth to Phil Taylor's comments?

[Guest Kamy100]

Rovers doing ok, closing down the greeks really well. Rovers haven't created much yet.

[RibbleValleyRover]

AEK the better side so far but we have been closing down well. Not a spark of real creativity from us yet.

1-0 AEK

[Guest Kamy100]

1-0 AEK, poor defending by Rovers, good finish by the AEK striker.

[donis1410]

is anyone else getting concerned at the lack of creativity by rovers, im feeling just as frustrated whenever I watch a rovers game live last season

[RibbleValleyRover]

2-0 lol!

[alexanders]

I am getting a bit nervous.

0-2 now.

We are not good at defending and we dont seem to make any chances.

IF I have to watch Roberts on top on his own next season Ill cry.

[Guest Kamy100]

2-0 AEK, more shocking defending by Rovers, far to much space and time for the AEK players inside the box.

[RibbleValleyRover]

No creativity, no midfield, poor defending- Yep it sounds like Rovers.

[donis1410]

whenever I watch us play it seems to be like playground when all the best players pick each other and go "you have a two goal head start coz your poop and we will still kick your ass" apart from we aint any cop ourselves

[Hi Mack]

There is zero creativity and a player up front that is one of the countries worst finishers! Oh dear!

[alexanders]

Nzonzi having a good game so far. Seems to be able to find more passes forward now than what ive seen before.

Also wins a lot of balls.

[RibbleValleyRover]

Can't blame a soggy pitch for this display so far as AEK have been passing the ball brilliantly on the deck.

[Guest Kamy100]

Obviously it is a pre-season game so can't be sure how seriously the players are taking it. However, it is a concern that we are playing our first choice midfield and have created nothing. We need a striker but just as important we need a midfielder who can get forward. As we don't have any money I guess the best hope is to get someone on a loan deal.

spot on, so far all we have done is hoof the ball 50 yards every time we get it !!

[steveo57]

rovers live on NO/nelliek9

[alexanders]

Dont think we are only hoofing it.

[Finch]

Footy at 9 o'clock in the morning. Can't get used to that idea.

[Dan]

BFS will stick with 1 upfront next season. He never seems to learn from his mistakes.

What mistakes?

10th place finish.

[RibbleValleyRover]

HT- Really poor performance. Need to raise our game dramatically when the season starts otherwise we are in trouble.

far too early innit mate

Well to be honest I havent seen much in the way of constructive passing !! apart from AEK's

[RibbleValleyRover]

Bosnich does have a point but there seems to be real venom behind his comments. Any idea why he hates us so much?
