Shocking 1st half, we are playing into their hands by not making the pitch big. We need to get Alese or Pembele on for Seelt, i like Seelt but hes a CB playing RB so offering zero going forward Playing Adil as a CF is a joke, feel for the lad as its not his position n the service to him has been nonexistent We need to get some pace on to stretch the game, Rusyn should have come on instead of Ba imo So 2nd half is simple, make the pitch wider (get a natural fullback on) n make it longer (get rusyn on)
Apparently Boro battered them. They went down fighting. We could still easily win this I know that. But we are hardly putting a marker down with this performance moving forward.
Boro had 75% possession but only 5 shots on target. I'm not saying we're playing well, I'm hoping for a classic game of two halves
Boro had over 20 shots, Rotherham had zero (their goal was a cross). So at least Boro were trying to win the game. I'd argue we are the team who are making this game scrappy, not the injury depleted relegation bound Rotherham.
I’d have Rusyn and Pritchard on for AA and Jobe. Ideally also Pembele or Alese for Seelt I fear however our head coach doesn’t see the problems. Clarke’s brilliance the other day has masked them.
It is mad the lengths we'll go to not to play a striker up top, I wouldn't be surprised to see Seelt up there instead of Rusyn. Sounds like one or two changes at half time are needed but most likely there won't be any. Not knocking Beale there it's just unusual for coaches to make a 'bold' move like that.
Did you see that game ? Of the stats or there own fans laughing at how silly it was they won? A freak result.
Have we kept a tally of the players Beale has tried up top in his 3 games? Ba Pritchard Jobe Aouchiche anyone else?
The team the other day suited playing a team like Hull, rotherham play on a narrow pitch so got to make it big and we arent doing it at all!!! Cant believe how bad that was, tactically wrong and the performances have been shocking. I would give Neil n Patterson pass marks so far but thats it
Agree if we had them. Huggins and Cirkin are both good at overlapping. Hume is a good defender but not much good at overlapping, particularly when he's playing on the left. Seelt is a CB.
aye. I just hope Beale sees it. The fact it’s been similar at each half time so far indicates to me he maybe doesn’t.
