Give the guy a break. He clearly thinks playing down a man improves the odds of winning. That’s what he plays Gallagher on the wing. It’s like playing with 10 every week...wicked smart

I'd prefer to see Rothwell in the middle, Evens in another kit, and Dolan on the wing. But that's just me.

“Blackburn Rovers to bring two academy starlets into squad vs Watford – including 10-goal striker” What are the odds he plays on the wing?

Better than being “not good enough” to make the squad

Hoping the best for Gally, but fearful the only reason he can off was due to caught his up blood, not his sergio play

Making our push into the top 6 like usual.

He set him up to fail when he bought him.

I’d sub off bell and play Downing at LB

Gallagher off Dack on. Move Elliot wide.

Collect a pay check?

We train?

Set pieces... how many times?

Better get him off

Travis also only got hit shot through injury. It’s like we have no faith in our own youth program.

When was the last time we were in good form? Our unbeaten run in January wasn’t form, it was luck.

It’s not only about the position in the table we havent looked right for months. I’m thinking Dack doesn’t fit our style of play. He’s performed his best play off a target striker that can hold the ball up. Being the playmaker in that space of a more direct team. With Armstrong firmly cemented into the central forward position Dack seems lost. Dack has admitted in the past he prefers Armstrong wide left, now we know why. Travis has not been the problem and our best performances, albeit against bottom sides, was with Johnson in that role and Rothwell/Holtby in front. Rothwell is much better central than wide but with Dack back he gets shoveled out left. Also Dolan gave us a dynamic option on the wing that SG simply doesn’t have. Why we went away that I’m not sure. bottom line is TM has tinkered to the point where no one except maybe Armstrong knows what they’re doing. The players deserve some blame but most of us have seen their abilities so we know the talent is there...it’s the team and man management that’s gone array.

What happened to dominating the ball and letting the opponent feel the pressure...fucking wanker

Yeah a player coming back from long term injury and was utter shite before it was put directly into the line up at the expense of our best defender. No player would be happy but the chap getting the undeserving start

How can they not? It’s clear to everyone he’s run out of ideas months ago. How would you feel if you were playing the left-right back striker position then subbed off because you weren’t doing what you we’re supposed to?

Let’s not forget our “run” in January was full of dreadful performances too. Haven’t played well for months.

Would be better off sending to back, and recalling our own young players. Why give them experience when our own players could look this bad

The substitutions are like watching a gradeschooler playing football manager.

Dack is definitely at his best playing off of a target forward who can hold up play. Being the playmaker in a more direct team. Not sure our current “style” or “formation” suits him.

Like they have a fucking recognizable formation

Still drawing the players roles on the white board...explaining how no formation works, while the lads just wonder onto the field and Bennett’s selects the side
