Hes 2 goal and 4 assists this season all competitions. Tho I do wonder if he would have make here. No idea why Coyle didnt put more faith in him instead of signing Feeney

You love non league football dont you? Can you explain where non league football would be better for him then playing somewhere like Crewe or Fleetwood Town? I think we need to extremly caution if and where we loan him to. It has to be right loan and not stop his development.

Big clubs are looking for young talent where they can develop them. Look at Sancho at Dortmund. been linked with Chelsea for 100 million.

I wouldn't like to see him play there. Not his natural position which is up front but I prefer playing Armstrong up front and I would be using Rankin Costello wide. We have academy that is producing good prospects so likes start using then as well as buying players. Yes it a contract option but not yet taken up by his club. Wonder why? I don't agree we cant afford but is worth the money Portsmouth want? I'm unsure. Look at Lowe at Wigan who people said he would be good signing here before he signed there. He hasn't set the world on fire has he? Well if you look at the stats Bennett and Downing who have played a full backs areas this seasons and have 4 and 5 assists. Armstrong has 5 assists and 7 goals. championship stats only. Dack only has 1 assist but 9 goals. Travis and Holtby has 3 assists each. So the wide forward seem to be worked at times. I like to see a Rankin Costello or wide player signing playing right with Rothwell playing from the left but cutting in.

I thought he went downhill after Sam Allardyce went tbh. Maybe man management of Sam Allardyce was key to Robinson's game

I think you are correct Armstrong deserve more credit. Play up front now and forget the defensively duties when he played wide. He is a goalscorer for me and our best finisher

same team as Sheff Wed game

I suspect Gallagher will play there tbh. Especially since he has been working hard on that position in training and working with Johnson in the video analysis room. We don't play with wingers in our system we played cos Rothwell drifts inside and Gallagher move inside so our full backs provided the width in our system. Would I like to see a winger sign? most likely but I wouldn't be over spending on Maddison or Curtis tho. Both only 6 months left on their contracts I wouldn't be spending 2 mil plus on either. Maybe look at Derby County's winger Florian Jozefzoon, or Niclas Eliasson from Bristol City(who is out of contract this summer I believe).

I would be using Rankin Costello and Chapman more now. I was very encouraged by Rothwell's performance on Saturday. His movement was I like the most until he got a stupid booking. tbh, 2 of them would be left back and experience keeper

I was looking forward to seeing Campbell playing yesterday until he went off injured

I was talking over the 2 or 3 seasons when I mention young centre backs. Isaac Whitehall is doing a good job from what I've read. I couldn't make yesterday game due to illness to see the Academy cup game. I was impressed with Sam Barnes in the games I've seen this season. Its a shame I've not got to more sadly. Hayden Carter was good against Burnley game.

Baston is gone in the summer and I expect Ayew will go. Surprise someone like Villa haven't gone for Ayew tbh. I did enjoying Danny Batth performance last night plus Butland being so commanding and looking back to his back. Wonder if his improvement is down to the new GK coach appointed. Similar to the job Bobby Mimms did with Paul Robinson

2 wingers and a left back? this transfer window? Surely we are far better using Chapman and Rankin Costello until of the end of the window. Plus we have Rothwell and Downing that can played and I assume Gallagher will until end of the season. If we are looking towards next season squad and the transfers need to make a competitive squad next season. Yes we will need 2 keepers, 2 centre backs, 1 right back, a left back maybe 2 if we don't sign Bell up or but one in this window, Possible a winger, 1 centre midfield. So that's it possible 8 or 9 signings in the summer

seem to be looking towards that market. Wonder if we have hired a scout from that region recently? How many times have we used this agency during our transfers in the last 18 months and haven't we used over 10 different player's agent agencies?

I would to prefer Dack if he wants to go when he returned from his injury and Rovers need to sell him to meet FFP requirements and keep our good young players like Rankin Costello, Buckley plus these centre backs coming through. We seem to have some very decent young players coming through who are centre backs. I think Buckley will develop in a very good passing midfielder in the future. He has the talent and skills as you can see from his appearances for the club already. I've watched the Under 23's a fair few times and Rankin Costello, Buckley, Travis and Butterworth always Stood out. Every time I've seen him he played right wing back and right wing. Never seen in Centre mid

Now Baston was signed 3 and half years and never set the place on fire. Ayew was signed 2 years ago. Both signed when Swansea was PL club and could pay those fees in transfers and wages. I have enjoyed watching O'Neill teams for a while. They are always very well drilled and organised. He has made Stoke solid at the back This is Brewster 1st loan outside Liverpool football club, so lets calm down before we go OTT.

Well Swansea sold 2 players for over 30.million pounds plus wages of players released last summer saved. So the re balancing has happened already. Swansea have made cuts back now focusing on developing their own talent and loan players in. Told you all this in the summer Roversfan99. And the reasons why they wouldnt get top 6. Well we have to disagree on tonight game. Ive already said I enjoyed it. Also praised O'Neill and the impact him and his staff have had already.

Cos I dont think Swansea will get top 6 as I said at start of the season. They are re balancing their finances. Cooper has some great contacts in football and bringing in many of England under 19's he had there. I said they would top 10 and IMO thats a successful for them. Always going to dull games when you have teams playing 4 games in days. Just like PL games were. Enjoyed tonight game tho.

I just Leeds are struggling now. Same problem as last season kicking in again. Fulham have improved at the back with Hector at the back. Leader and organiser they lacked. Brentford have some attacking players that they scored goals with their BMW trio in attack. Swansea will do well to get playoffs. Cooper been impressive so far. Still think they just miss out on top 6 but will be successful season IMO for them. Rovers. Only 5 points of top 6 and decent chance of getting there IMO. If Armstrong, Downing, Travis, Lenihan and Adarabioyo stay fit. If we could add a couple of signings could help our cause. Very competitive league and very enjoyable to Watch.

I think Fulham and Brentford will get top 2. Leeds need a striker or 2 IMO. WBA need a couple of signings.

WBA and Leeds both defeat in this round of fixtures. And tbh both deserve nothing. Will both not get top 2. I thought Stoke was excellent tonight. Defensive very solid. Butland solid as a rock. Michael O'Neill has made them harder to beat. Good structure to the team and formation. Danny Batth deserved his man of the match award

Sounds like no leaks from Rovers. Keeping it very close.

Maybe long term but I agree with @roversfan99's latest comment that Downing is the answer probably for next 18 months. Depending on his fitness, legs and mobility.

Good win by players. Bess and Pope the standouts for me.
