2 really good through balls by Gueye

summer and the he will probably move down south to London to be closer to his home in Iceland 😉 Easier to get flights or something

Indeed it does, They both had loans (& gametime) at tier 6 last season too, but yes, I assumed you meant for Rovers, and your point is completely valid anyway

I think the list of "greedy players" will be further expanded upon over the next 6 months or so

Don't exaggerate 🙂 Atcheson has 17 minutes from 2 cup appearances

But they were all greedy & wanted paying too much, what are the odds eh?

yes

I was too busy excitedly finding my favourite "all things Rovers related" gif/jif thingy to even notice the error

and if they could have had their way, he wouldn't be here anymore either But everything is normal, nothing to see here etc etc

Rovers website Venice is Particularly Nice at this time of year

Starts this weekend for O'Riordan - won 2-1 - played the full game Edmondson - drew 1-1 - played the full game Wood - lost 3-1 - played the full game, scored to make it 1-1 Sergeant - won 5-1 - subbed off on 64 mins with the score at 3-1 On the bench - Not involved in matchday squad Olson & O'Grady-Macken - lost 1-0 - Olson did play for Rovers U21s in midweek Farkas - lost 1-0 Boggan - won 2-1 Duru - lost 3-1 - I think this ends San Diego's season, will be interesting to see hat happens with Duru in January No game this weekend Barrett - team played on Thursday Wolsoncroft - game called off

Its part of Ismael's job description to keep the smokescreen up for as long as possible

I edited my post as you replied, we are pretty much "aligned" in our thoughts 😉

I would agree with that argument if he was the cheap 2nd/3rd choice travelling with the squad. But why extend his contract when we already have at least 5 (Toth, Pears, Michalski, Goddard, Honor) better options, & then loan him out anyway? It would have been cheaper to just release him at the end of his contract last summer. This one I put down to incompetence (or pre planned relegation) rather than penny pinching

I can only imagine it is preparation for him sitting on Rovers bench once we have been relegated & we have either Goddard or Michalski as first choice

On the bench tonight Barrett - won 2-1 - remained on the bench throughout

not confident all all with that midfield pairing

You called it

I'm not even a particular fan of Forshaw, I thought he should have bene released during the summer. just he is the closest (of our available players) in style to Tronstad, which just shows how poor the summers recruitment was (talking numbers, not the individual players), with no adequate backup for multiple positions (centre back, right wing back, sitting midfielder, striker), whilst having a glut of box to box midfielders and "10s", and 2 left backs, neither of who play

Agree that both TGH & Montgomery are more box to box. Don't think either of them has the positional discipline to play the Tronstad role Think they may try Forshaw as Tronstads stand in, and then prey his legs manage 4 games in 2 weeks (which seems fancifull at best)

Also, there could be an argument made that a leader/captain would fetch an extra few £100K or so

It could be both of these things (Tronstad & formation change) in tandem, it could be one of those impacts more than the other I guess we will find that out in the next couple of weeks whilst we have the back 3, but no Tronstad

It sounds like they will take the option above in bold https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/25651075.blackburn-rovers-need-right-balance-cantwell-injury/ Valerien Ismael says Todd Cantwell is “improving well” but insists that Rovers must manage his return from injury carefully. The skipper has not featured since early October after picking up a knee problem and will not be involved against QPR tonight. However, Cantwell could potentially be back in contention for Saturday’s trip to Wrexham if all goes to plan in the next few days. “At the minute it looks good but (QPR) won’t be possible,” Ismael told RoversTV. “We need to give him time. It is important when he comes back, he has to stay 100 per cent and this is a fine line to find. “We have a lot of games and don’t have a normal week to train, so we need to find the right balance to see him back. “But he is improving well. He has a couple of sessions behind him and the response was good.”
