Just now, Mercer said:

Montgomery is crap - well and truly over hyped.

De Neve is simply crap.

My first impressions about these two spot on.

My God, we need an e perienced back-up to Toth.  Michalski nowhere near ready.  Cost us 2nd goal and spilled a shot and lucky it went to a Rovers.

Tavares and Axel showing some decent touches but remember this lot were in League 2 last season.

Yes, but everything Taveres seems to be doing is 1 touch. Will translate well to championship 

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

Another 45 mins and still no idea what Ismael's plan/style is.  

At least  Boro are also having a mare. 

[rob_of_the_rovers]

Not sure why were persisting with Montgomery as a right back. Not his natural position 

[DutchRover]

Mediocre half, first five mins were a disgrace but after that it was pretty even perhaps edged by us.

Montgomery and De Neve were awful; Michalski mistake was comedy but hopefully he learns and I know he is highly rated.

Tavares looks a greta buy, his time with Porto is very obvious in his style of play, very classy.

Henriksson some useful touches but not quite settled I feel; Tyjon similar, talented but not quite ready I think.

Gueye better than some making out, his movement and workmate have been good and he's linked a couple of moves nicely. His finishing remains pretty terrible however.

[TheKitGuy]

Does anyone else just find it all incredibly boring? There's absolutely no life in the team and no atmosphere. This lot wouldn't look out of place in the Blackburn combination. 

[Neal]

Seeing a few of you saying Tavares as Travis replacement... He shouldn't be his replacement, the player we sign when he leaves should be his replacement. Don't excuse these cheap fuckers with getting away with pocketing even more cash!

[OsloRover]

De Neve! Scores when he wants

[Rover down South]

What a player 😂

[KentExile]

super de neve lol

[DutchRover]

Fair play, as soon as I say De Neve was trash he scores from Miller throw, but point still stands 

[doctorryan]

That's 1 back.

 

[Wegerleswiggle]

Never doubted our little crackhead 

[callumrovers]

Miller with the rocket throw. Good finish by de Neve.

[OsloRover]

Bandage FC combining for the goal

This is the 4th time I've seen de neve. Unfortunately in my mind he is already cemented in as the symbol of this side.

As a left winger he is absolutely bobbins. A reasonable athlete but offers very little. 

If he's our starting left winger this season we are genuinely screwed. Especially with Hedges currently the incumbent on the right.

Symptomatic of the downgrading of everything at this club.

Sorry - you were saying - lol

[DutchRover]

Addendum to previous, Miller's throw is a huge weapon if we can use it.

[Darwen Rover 007]

The 'throw' could be a real asset.. really liking Miller so far 

[Valconite]

Miller has one hell of a throw 👍

[Polky]

That throw was ridiculous 😭

[WacoRover]

More relieved at not being shutout, than anything else. 

[Paul Mellelieu]

Doncaster winning 2-0 at 'Boro.
