Markanday is not a Championship player - how many times does he have to prove that?

Eustace tried Beck further forward in the Sheffield United game. He's very much Warnock reincarnated - he doesn't have the feet to play as an attacking player. -

Maybe Tronstad? First name on the team sheet for mine. -

You saw Hedges at his best and his worst in that one passage of play in the second half where he was played in, dallied on the ball - thereby losing the opportunity to shoot across the GK with his favoured left foot - panicked and just passed an aimless ball across the box to nobody. He wouldn't start for any other team pushing for promotion. -

He's clearly quite a classy player. I wish we'd play him more to give Travis and Tronstad a rest. -

As his biggest critic even I'll admit he had a very good game today. -

He looks like a Rolls Royce next to Buckley. -

He couldn't play as a pivot in a 4-2-3-1 - receiving the ball facing his own goal and playing on the half turn wasn't his game. He's had a new lease of life under Eustace - he's turned him back into a box-to-box CM. -

LOL Cardiff have clearly been instructed to shoot on sight. -

Was the Hedges miss as bad as I thought it was from the stands? The overhit Ohashi pass to Cantwell was an absolute stinker. -
v Sheffield Utd (h) - 2/11/2024
Exiled_Rover replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I thought it was another credible performance from Beck, Hyam, Batth, Tronstad, Travis and Cantwell. Ohashi fluffed his lines, Dolan and Hedges aren't good enough and sadly JRC will always be marked down for his poor clearance. I don't question their effort and bravery, I question their talent. -

I was threatened with being knocked out by a local on the walk back from the ground because of where I park (on a main road, which he thinks is 'private land') - Blackburn really has gone to the dogs. -

Exiled_Rover replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Wait, you think those are low effort performances? I think it's a team going flat out - which is why we struggle to back it up when we have 2 games a week. Dolan, Hedges, Weimann, Buckley, Pickering, Pears - all L1 players. Sheffield United brought Harmer off the bench ffs. -

Exiled_Rover replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Not much you can really do there. Two fortunate goals (JRC cleared to an offside man and they won the ping pong battle for the second), but they just had better players across the field. Heard boos at full time - I just don't understand that. Only Beck, Tronstad and Cantwell would get in their side. -

Get Dolan and Hedges off at half time, they're both a negative. Leonard and Gueye on. -

Getting our disappointment in 2 months early I see. -
I'll go on record and say I think he's a very good Championship ST.

Need to cancel those Garrett and O'Riordan loans in January. -

Weimann and Hyam missed chances I'd fancy slotting away. -

Out for 2-3 months so no way someone buys him in January. -

Porteous took the throw in - he's a Grade A cunt. -

I think he's a wide player or a #10 at this level. Not big, strong, fast enough to lead the line. -

The manager has literally come out and said the referee knows that's not a penalty - so he's going to get fined, that's how bad it was. -

Exiled_Rover replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
The problem lies behind the strikers. They're getting very little service from the 3 in attacking midfield. Cantwell is clearly a sensational player at this level, but he can't do it on his own (he can't finish that sitter Weimann missed for example as he's the one that put him through). Ohashi and Gueye are a damn sight better than what we had last year. I'm hopeful Leonard can come back and contribute soon too. -

First bad game he's had I think. Still he got absolutely no service again.
