I think Travis in the middle is the catalyst to both Evans and Smallwood performing. Travis premiership class!

not getting too excited just yet

Reed in the middle rothwell on the left! Not sure why TM keeps putting Reed outwide

That's shocking! Expected over 2k

If we attack the way we did in the second half, against Ipswich, then we could get a result! 2-1 Rovers - Dack & Rothwell

That's exactly how I'd line up! Great team!

Yes please!

Great second half! Rodwell, Armstrong my men of the match. Rothwell making a difference when he came on! could have been 5-0!

Would like to see someone different on the score sheet. Travis, Nuttall or Rothwell. That's if they start or get on! I know everyweek is a big game. But TODAY is massive!! COYB

Because he has quality next to him - Travis. Seemed to give him a boot up the arse he needed.

Look at other games pal. He has done a lot more than nothing? Not everyone makes an impact Never said he had a bad game? I agreed he had a good game. Maybe played better because he had Travis next to him? Why I don't agree with both Evans & Smallwood in the middle. Too alike. However as an individual player I don't think Smallwood is good enough. Reason he started in the centre before Reed & Travis for most of the season is because he's a yes man.

I was there? You obviously weren't at the game to say he was your second man of the match? But hey it's your opinion. I do agree he had a decent game probably his only one this season.I had Travis & graham before smallwood for MOTM. The point is TM has his selection of yes man and will not drop them no matter how bad they play. Then we have players like rothwell, make more of an impact in 10 minutes than others, make one error or Dont score score and get dropped?

Ha! Come off it! I don't think Richie Smallwood has passed a ball forward this season yet he still starts?

haha beat me to it

So your saying Armstrong had end product? Yes Armstrong has scored two goal in two games. But in all honesty I would expect that for the amount of times he's started. (Before those games he could hit a barn door). Rothwell hasn't been given a proper chance. Started very few games. Every game he starts he gets dropped for an extra 10 matches. How is he supposed to 'fit' in the team when one, the manager wont play him & two he isn't played in his natural postion? The lad needs a chance and needs a goal!

would love Rothwell to start! He probably is the most excitable player going forward we have. Yet the manager can't see this? Boring boring Tony

Yeap - smallwood had 3 weeks off and still couldn't last! Allthough I thought Smallwood played okay yesterday. He, for me, isn't good enough. Along with Evans.

As long as Travis is in CM I'll be happy. Please not the two crabs together. (Love that phrase!) 2-1 t'rovers

Agreed. I really want him to do well but it just isn't working for him at the moment. Time will tell.

Travis is a machine!! Why the lad hasn't had more game time is beyond me. The duo of Evans & Smallwood does not work!! Would like to see a Reed & Travis partnership in the middle, both a step up from the other two. One thing that got me was that, if Dack didn't start, why not stick Rothwell in the number 10 role? See what he can do in his natural position? We all know the lads got talent! The more Mowbray leave him out the less interested he will be. Hope we don't loose him!
