[Archived] Rovers v Peterborough

[Bigdoggsteel]

We look to have no fluidity 

[RoversClitheroe]

We look awful - zero fluidity to our play

[jim mk2]

Marriott's a handful.

Posh much better than us.

[davulsukur]

That Edwards lad is decent for them. Knows how to mke a run forward.

Also the commentary keeps saying a posh name and it sounds like Gouty.

[DE.]

Our forward play has been @#/?ing appalling AGAIN tonight so far. Almost like we're playing two strikers on the wing.

It really does look like the inability to score from open play in the last few games is getting into their heads. We desperately need one to go in - off the arse, the elbow, whatever it takes.

[Bigdoggsteel]

Who is second and playing at home? This is sh1t

[DE.]

Williams must be replaced in the summer. Not good enough, not even close.

[G Somerset Rover]

Every pass isn’t just a yard or two off target, it’s 5-10 yards away from where it needs to be. The ‘not playing well’ count is marching on, we need to get a @#/?ing grip.

More likely to go in off someone's arse than Williams head

[jim mk2]

Dack totally anonymous

Agreed, decent looking player.

I don't understand why he keeps getting into scoring positions. Where the hell are Graham, Armstrong, Dack or Antonsson? It's not like we're short of attacking players!

[CrouchingNunhiddenCucumber]

They've got 8 men behind the ball whenever we get it and we are struggling to break them down. The one man who could usually unlock it has been pretty quiet. 

[jim mk2]

Great defending from Charlie. Posh going to score......

And Williams does his custom back post failure 

They are having fun down the wings, nk surprise with williams, every team goes down our left, week in, week out. Lacklustre again this, crap.

[G Somerset Rover]

Just so so lacklustre, do they realise what’s at stake here? Only Mulgrew doing anything.

@#/?ing hell lads, wake up!!! Get Bell on for Williams FFS Tony.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Laboured performance so far...not many of our players excite.

[Craigyboy]

Can see us losing this one Peterborough are playing like the home team 

[Bigdoggsteel]

It's not helping that every time we have momentum our player turns and passes it back 

We are going to lose this

You can tell you never watch us if this performance is a surprise.

Oh shut up you troll

Dacks acceleration is gone, shouldn't be starting 

[DE.]

It's really noticeable how we never have any players in the 18-25 yard area around their box. There's a huge disconnect at the moment between the midfield and the attack. It inevitably ends up getting pinged in at Graham's head, and even if he does win the header it's usually nodded down to nobody. 

Also Armstrong is a poor winger. I've counted at least three times where his cross has been easily dealt with and not even cleared the first man. When he's not scoring goals we're basically seeing why he failed at Bolton earlier in the season - he isn't a very good winger!

[Bbrovers2288]

Good tactic from pboro, allow Williams, antonsson and Evans as much free time on the ball as they like and mark our more dangerous players out the game

If he’s looked ‘the best he has’ in training then what the hell is he like the rest of the time.

Need Payne and Bell on ASAP.
