  1. We know it works with Dolan as a False 9. We know it works with Nyambe as a WB. He's asking players to do things they're not capable of with this starting XI - same as it ever was under Mowbray.
  2. 1 win in 16 last year proves that the results don't matter - I used to feel like you did until then.
  3. Van Hecke is going to get himself sent off. I don't question his heart, he's livid with those he's playing with (and against) today.
  4. The system is fine (albeit I don't think we'll set up this way next year). Asking JRC / Pickering to play as Wing Backs, Buckley to play as a False 9 and Giles to play as a Right Inside Forward is moronic though. It hasn't worked for 6 months.
  5. I can't understand why Wolves aren't on the phone asking us what we're playing at.
  6. JRC is as bad as Pickering in terms of being completely out of his depth as an athlete playing WB. He was jogging back on that break, doing the old "look at your feet willing yourself to go faster" rouse for about 10 yards before giving up the chase.
  7. The formation isn't the problem.
  8. Pickering isn't athletic enough to play as a WB. He gets exposed every week.
  9. He's determined to turn Giles into Mahrez, when's he's clearly a LWB. Much like he was determined to turn Rothwell into Benrahma. It's criminal.
  10. We scored 3 goals in 2 and a half months. This year was worse than last - the fact they're comparable says it all about Mowbray.
  11. Playoffs have gone. We're just playing out the string now. As bad a run of games as I've ever seen at Rovers. Heads should be rolling left, right and centre... y'know if we were a normal club and not the basket case we are.
  12. Fuck him. Fit enough to play 80 mins for Chile, wasn't he. Throw him on upfront from the start.
  13. So not fit enough for Rovers, but fit enough to fly half way around the world and play for Chile. I hope we fine him the wages for all the weeks he's missed.
  14. Or y'know lads who are high on cocaine who storm into the stadium without a ticket and proceed to rip the seats out of the stands...
  15. He's had 4 years to make a back 4 work. We've shipped goals for fun under Mowbray.
  16. Personally I think Nyambe is a better player in both positions, he just can't play both at the same time.
  17. Compensation? Now you're just being greedy. I'd drive him there myself - I'd swing by and pick up his family from Smoggy land too if required.
  18. Agree to disagree. Rothwell has been fine - he's still doing all of the things that got him looked at by Bournemouth (he single handedly won the Cardiff game). The problem is a) teams are now man marking him and b) he doesn't have a Chilean international to get on the end of passes / drag players away.
  19. Hell, even Gareth Ainsworth would be a damn sight better than Mowbray.
  20. We started with 3 at the back, playing wing backs. He switched to 4 at the back when he brought Hedges and Dack on in the second half - and yes, we're significantly worse defensively playing a back 4.
  21. Some of you people legit need counselling. It was over when we scored 3 goals in 2 and a half months.
  22. They won't even know we had a match today.
  23. I'm a massive fan of Travis, but he's been awful today. Rothwell has done what he always does - he's a 70 minute man, so he hides for 20 minutes each game. That said he's tracked and tackled reasonably well and gone on a few of his runs after his patented half turn. Unfortunately he's been given nothing to play with - his best contribution was a wonderful pass to put Gallagher through. Obviously Sam blazed wide 'cos he's awful.
