Chapman for Evans and downing central would be my change if he can’t continue 

I’ve completely lost faith with TM over transfers, our last 3 windows have been shocking and I can’t say there has been much improvement in the squad, in some areas we have gone backwards. He needs to go if we are to move forward. His refusals to signs out and out wingers is beyond ridiculous, instead signing expensive useless players to play as ‘wide forwards’.

I’d be going for Emre Mor myself. This man was tipped as something great and we have (past albeit) history of taking strikers with suspect attitude problems and watching as they set games on fire. Although we have had our fair share of bad ens to....Goodwillie. 

I just think Mor screams Rovers. Turkish and brilliant with the ball. Knowing the history of the club like any fan would I’d have tried to land this bloke in the summer. 
 

Sadly though we don’t have that pulling power and the likes of Leeds and Brentford are now above us in that regard. It would have been a (Turkish) delight seeing one of theirs playing on Ewood again 

I too have been hoping for a shock move for mor, especially as he is available for 5m this window as reported by sky. While that may seem a hefty price the potential reward is to great to turn down. Would offer versatility in being able to play up front or out wide, though he’d used in behind a focal point. Which is what we’re lacking atm without dack. Wish we could get tugay on the line to put in a good word.

It’ll never happen though as there are rumours of an attitude problem meaning TM will be scared to go anywhere near. Which is a real shame cuz at 5m it’s a proper bargain. Makes our signings of SG and BB look ridiculous for the price we paid. The value is definitely abroad.

Would be all over madine on a free. Know we’re not short of attackers but all our out and out strikers are pretty awful (not including Armstrong) or too old.

Couple of players I’d like to see us look at in jan

yedlin - Newcastle RB/LB

Maddison - Peterborough LW/RW (yes him again)

Empadu - Chelsea CB (if he gets recalled from loan in Germany)

Williams - Manchester United LB 

Don’t think we need to go after a replacement for Dack, we have Holtby or Buckley who I believe both could excel in that free role. Full backs and genuine wingers are the must signings for me. Tho unfortunately I feel TM will persist with ‘wide forwards’. Wouldn’t mind bringing in a keeper but not sure who we could get in January who would be able to be a long term option.

Bottled it 

Williams has been absolutely awful 

Best result of the season. Looking like promotion hopefuls atm. Awaiting the inevitable nosebleed though.

Needs to go. Losing games atm might do us good in the long run if it means he gets the sack

If anyone could send a certain link then that would be appreciated 

Very suprised to hear how happy millwall fans are that Harris has left. From their forums sounds like the fans turned on him and he decided to leave on the back of that, which is pretty honourable from him Tbf. Reckon mil wall fans will regret turning on him tho.

I actually thought we were very good today. Downing and travis excellent, Armstrong surprisingly very good aswel. Holtby has to start the next game. Gallagher was a waste of space out wide tho. Also thought Samuel was looking decent when he came on. 

Should of won the game tho and in terms of results the last 2 games have been very poor. Missed opportunity.

Poor team, with no balance. Would of played Rothwell dack and Holtby behind graham. Can’t see us getting anything from this. 

We have two strikers playing in the wide areas. That says it all. 

Same old rovers today, first goal was a real sucker punch, especially as we started the game so so well, probably the best I’ve seen us play in a long term, albeit, for 10 mins. After that we were awful. Travis the only player who came out with any realcredit, our best player by a long way. Although I did notice that he seems to always play the easy pass, very rarely does he switch the play with a long ball or provide a splitting pass. That aside he was excellent just needs to stop playing it safe all the time. Holtby did alright aswell when he came on him dack and Rothwell will be a handful ( if there ever used together). Overall a poor performance where we didnt really create any guilt edge opportunities. Lose at forest and we are looking a long way off the playoffs and they’re a team who are 8 unbeaten or something like that. Gonna be a tough one. 

On the side that was probably one of the worst refereeing performances I have ever seen. Let Luton get away with far to much time wasting and had no idea why our goal was ruled out.

This is the kind of game which we always seem to lose, just as momentum is building. So I think it’s a pretty large test for us, when the pressure is on us to win the game comfortably. No easy game in this league tho.

Dont think we need two holding midfield players in this game as we’re most likely going to have a lot of the ball, although I love travis would play Holtby ahead of him in there with Johnson. Just gives us abit more quality on the ball aswel as experience. Would also give downing a rest, because reckon forest will be a pretty tough game which we will at least need to get something out of. Reckon it’ll be a good game to bring Rothwell in. Abit of hype is building but a loss will take us right back again, so fingers crossed. 

Evans? Really? No Rothwell?

Would of had travis over Johnson and Rothwell over downing but can see the thinking with the team. 3 cbs to deal with Ariel threat from millwall and clearly looking to keep it on the ground when attacking them. Armstrong really needs to step up today. Excited to see Buckley, reckon him and travis could be a really exciting long term midfield partnership.

Doesn’t seem like it’s gonna happen for us today

Anyone got a video of the goal?

TM just get out 

If someone could post the goal would be appreciated 

1-1

Why we are playing 2 defensive midfielders in this game I have no idea. Would of played Rothwell in there so we have quality on the ball.

You see if I don't think its that simple. In fact I would argue the opposite, we have 2 fit centre backs in Williams and Tosin, they currently don't know how bad Lenihans injury is so we can't afford to risk either of those two in a meaningless winnable game vs a league 2 team. I'd expect a back 4 of

Rankin-Costollo     Nyambe     Grayson      Cunningham

I think your probably right. However I’d argue what I suggested is what we should be doing however thanks to TM we are in a position where we can’t risk it

Walton 

nyambe Tosin Williams Cunningham 

evans Buckley 

chapman butterworth downing 

Brereton 

Really hope that’s the team. Important to stick with the 2 cbs, the more game time they get the better they will be. Would be really good to see how Buckley chapman and butterworth get on, with downing and Evans providing us with some experience. Also a good chance for Brereton to open up us his account for the season and he defo deserves a chance after pre season.
