What a save

New commentators on ifollow needed desperately

Our movement in the final third is absolutely abysmal. Armstrong in particular is just not very clever with his timing and body positions. It’s the reason we break down. Someone mentioned earlier, we desperately need a target man, as there is zero threat for crosses. Opposition has sussed that out now. Everything is through the middle. Looks like a return to the 4-5-1 is in order, as the 4-3-3 just isn’t working, and coupled by the Dack return it makes sense. Someone mentioned earlier 4/5 games to get it right, I would agree with that. @Huddersfield @Birmingham Doncaster cup H-Stoke H-Swansea I want at least 6 points and the cup win. Otherwise it’s time for a change. Get Bell back in for gods sake.

Still waiting for these winnable games we heard about

Ayala got pulled out there and as soon as the ball went into the box we weren’t winning the header.

Takes an hour for us to warm up

A disgraceful performance from Holtby

Get Bell on for gods sake If he makes changes here and doesn’t take Douglas off then he needs fired.

You won’t see a slower player than Douglas, frightening

It all comes from Holtby losing the ball for the umpteenith time. What is wrong with him now, he has been dreadful this season.

Ayala needs to get the fuck out of the way there

Mowbray will have Rothwell off here shortly, he needs no encouragement

Johnson having another shocker for me. He is a Centre half now

Harsh on Trybull, I think he has been solid enough

I still can’t believe Armstrong didn’t go round the keeper. It was perfect.

Better see a massive up tick in results when the trio gets back or It’s curtains for Mowbray I think. He has had a good run but it’s time for a change. He will get till the end of the season regardless. I thought we were okay today, miles better than Wed. Johnson did well actually, better than usual. Perhaps it should be a permanent move. Douglas a bit better, Lenihan wasn’t outrageously bad as usual which is nice. Trybull had a good game, Rothwell done alright, Holtby on a poor poor run of form. Gallagher shouldn’t start again, what a waste of 5m, just not a good footballer at all. Stoke are a dreadful side but so organized.

Punchless, no real movement off the ball. Absolutely brutal. Could have played till midnight and not scored

Come on boys! Huge game. Liking the midfield today and it’s the one we need to persist with.

Keeps looking better every time I see it. That front three is terrifying, and a bit of nonse in midfield

Oh yeah crap. It will be all Centre halfs on deck shortly

Mowbray takes Rothwell off every week so no he doesn’t need a rest. Agree with the midfield here though, but would put Rothwell wide left of the three. There is no way he would be less useful that Gallagher out there. Gallagher should be a route one option off the bench.

Lenihan too but we are still short a quality CB. Folk laughing at the thought of bringing Kipre in on Loan a few weeks ago too.

OlaSunday was the best player on the pitch tonight

Lenihan for me was abysmal not for the first time this season, needs a good solid dropping. Douglas, I thought this guy was suppose to be good, didn’t even look like a footballer tonight. So sick of seeing Johnson plodding around in the midfield with players scurrying all around him, it’s brutal. He is playing way too much football right now, and needs a rest. Buckley needs a 6 month loan up in Scottish Championship. Gallagher, just so has zero technical ability. The one time he got through he had no thought to look where Armstrong was, a head down and pummel guy.

Was coming on here to post exactly this. Rothwell is good at coming from deep sure, but if he can be further up the pitch, cutting in from the left. His pace will cause any right back problems. It let’s Gallagher return to bench and Elliott switch to his fav right wing and can form a formidable partnership with Nyambe. That midfield is better too.
