Hasta Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Not what I’d have picked and I fear we will offer little going forward. However it’s still early days for Hirst and Sammy. They’ve got a chance to impress so let’s see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllRoverAsia Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 I see McClean is still peddling his wares, some Rover is in for a kicking. We have a very strong bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBar Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Hirst is a big lump. Needs to play aggressive and angry. Appears a bit too nicey nice and soft. He already have a gentle giant striker in Gally. Hirst should have broken the net with that pen against Cardiff. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miller11 Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Perhaps Nyambe saw the writing on the wall regarding game time when he met with JDT. If the manager made it clear he’d regularly use attacking players at right back, and if we were already in for Brittain, it would make sense he’d feel it was time to move on.

Atko's Engine Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 I'm guessing Brittain still isn't 100% after his injury, but them strange he's been on the bench so often? Playing Hirst here might make sense; he did well in L1 last season & Wigan are more or less L1 opponents. No reason why we can't win tonight, the dismal record there means nothing when the whistle goes, getting a win of any sort would be fantastic. I'm going 1-2, BBD & Szmodics.

Exiled in Toronto Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Still too early to read much into his selections IMO. He’s still finding out who buys into his philosophy and who can deliver it on the pitch. Hedges clearly ticks both boxes and can be trusted with a very complicated dual role. Szmodics clearly buys into it after his North Korean style quotes the other day, and definitely delivered it on Saturday, let’s see if he can tonight. Bucko probably needs a few months to forget all that false 9 shit and become a proper midfielder and I don’t think Dack buys into it at all. The management must be thinking about what they could do with Dacky’s and Sam’s £40k/week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exiled_Rover Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Looks like JDT hasn't changed a winning team (bar I assume a still not fully fit Gallagher). Obviously this isn't good enough for the growing number of detractors on here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best footballer in the club, Brittain, is on the bench again. If it works and we win that's fine. But it's odd Agree with Hirst and although I think Szmodic has been a poor signing so far he scored and assisted in the last match and played well enough, he couldn't be dropped after that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garnersfags Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 My view, without upsetting anyone, is that we can get away with blooding new, young inconsistent talent at Ewood, where the supportive crowd, and defensive opposition allow the odd poor performance, and mistake, but statistically we can't usually get away with it away from Ewood. This is my concern about playing Hirst. I understand that JDT is searching for the secret, the missing link, but surely tonight was about breaking the cycle of depressingly poor away performances, not keeping Leicester City happy. I hope my misgivings are unfounded, but the other 10 may now have to work 10% harder for the win. I'm nervous. Remind me I was wrong at 10pm please. COYB!!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
