Tugay's Right Foot Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Time at half time for a post. I thought benno was pretty anonymous prior to winning that penalty. Dale made two defensive errors and got punished. Antonsson was hard working but no product until that pass for the first goal. Guess you got to graft for some luck. All in, I thought many are playing within themselves but most of all, I felt Evans is letting his team mates down. Didn’t get many things going. have to say though, some of the passing from the back forwards from Mulgrew and Downing had been class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preben Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Another terrible display, to only two up at half time and I fell asleep so didn't know about the first one. What time do the fans turn up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great to hear us 2-0 up but we need to up our game big time. Yeah from what I hear we have been very fortunate with Rochdale arguably the better side in the first half.

Should be interesting to see the second half when they have to chase the game. Probably throw in Willem for the disappointing Evans and Nutall for a bit more pace.

Our first goal came from the best move of the game and the second created from nothing by sheer persistence. Good for our 2-0 lead imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miker Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 It's been a poor game, but the lead is not entirely undeserved. Rochdale are awful. You have to say that Mowbray's tactics are working. He has the team pressing hard and playing at a high intensity, making it hard for Rochdale to keep their shape and forcing errors. He's spoken a lot about teams coming to Ewood and being hard to break down... well, this approach is certainly working for him so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wing Wizard Windy Miller Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Pretty poor half but good sign that we are winning without playing well. Camps (Rochdale) looks a much better player than Evans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tugay's Right Foot Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Evans almost cost us a goal there. At least the others are working hard. Evans looks abit out of it, slower in reaction and even let a ball run pass him in our penalty box Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Evans nearly cost us a goal and ultimately pegged back under pressure for the last few minutes. He's clearly not with it this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
