Andy Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 7 minutes ago, davulsukur said: The other bonus is that it seems Carter is a more than capable RB which eases the pressure of having only Brittain in that position. And hopefully gives him some competition. I thought it was Carter's best game for us - looked very comfortable down the right. Pickering did similarly well down the left. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how green he is finding that grass? These are the risks when you make money motivated sideways steps although i'm sure Coventry fans have said the same about Hyam. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercer Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Terrific performance and result. Undoubtedly, Ayala and Wharton gave us the rock steady foundation. If these two and Hyam can stay fit then who knows..........dare to dream! A nice little earner, a nice glass of wine and it's goodnight from me. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Didn’t give them a sniff did we. JDT masterclass, they didn’t expect a back 5, looked like they were lost sheep for 45 mins and they certainly didn’t like a team pressing them did they! Joao Pedro is embarrassing, what a fucking wet wipe he is, Travis pocketed him all game and he did enough to be sent off on another day. So refreshing to see us change tactics every game, it won’t work all the time, but it’s made through the week to play against the next team we find ourselves against; rather than Mowbray’s ‘young lads need to make their own decisions’ approach.

Tyrone Shoelaces Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 We started out at a high tempo for a change and we scored first. We usually do ok when that happens. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the key is Scott Wharton (or when he's out hopefully Mola) providing cover in a 343 or 352 to back him up. As long as we compensate for his average pace I think in other areas Pickering's a good left back/wing back. Decent in the air, quite strong, decent left foot. Hes alright. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arbitro Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 So pleased with the result first and foremost but delighted with the performance. Tomasson got his tactics spot on tonight with the back five along with Travis and Morton denying them any space to pick us off and the front players putting a real shift in to press and force Watford to go long on many occasions. Hedges was terrific and he has been a revelation this season and I for one am pleasantly surprised how good he actually is. Solid is what I want Rovers to be every game and tonight we were and we limited a good team with individual flair to next to no chances. We need to show some consistency now to eradicate those poor performances when we are too easily beaten. Well done Rovers. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Neal Posted September 13, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 13, 2022 What a night, thoroughly enjoyed it. Everyone could have been MoM, Carter, Ayala, Hyam, Wharton, Trav, Dolan and Hedges were all excellent. If we would have had that team out against Bristol we would have won. Dolan was night and day from what Dack gave us and I really fear for how he gets back in this team, we need people to run and chase down. It really annoys me how people give Dolan so much grief and overlook how he's only 20. Yes he needs to work on his end product but 2 games, 2 assists, 1 goal. Was unlucky in the first half with a good effort aswell. Really pleased for Ryan Hedges, it was a goal he deserved after so much hard work. My biggest concern is that he never looks a goal threat but a decent effort and a goal tonight is exactly what I want from him. This formation really suits us and it was good to see JDT constantly giving information to the players and passing notes onto the pitch. It's clear Daniel Ayala is his voice on the pitch, orchestrating exactly what the manager wants, without him we're much worse off. He's an outstanding defender. 22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
