    should be 2-0. We need to hold the ball and calm the game down

    You can see all our old weaknesses here

    - can’t use brute force up front when needed
    - can’t dribble around FB’’s
    - defence always looks good for a goal

    So if a team snuff out our midfield we are fcked and no plan b apparently

    But IBWT

    Could be the game where the substitutes stake a claim

    Stoke were crap and direby were no better.rotherham are set up with four at the back and a sweeper just in front of them.
    Change of player and tactics needed second half.come on lads mot

    they are playing defensive and hoping to get something on the counter attack. They should have had atleast two goals. Hoping something changes in the second half

    By the way, those two ‘top teams’ we beat in our first two games are both in bottom half of the table ........

    Well we rode our luck first half. Hopefully Bielsa will tear into them at halftime and we'll stuff them 2nd half.<ok>

    We have been hoofing balls in to the box and have no one with any pace .get harrison on and alioski off.bamford needs to come on and im not convinced with this midfield.yeah i know i keep saying it but im not.just my opinion though.no time on the ball and we are screwed.

    We're trying to play mostly diagonal aerial balls into the box where in the first 2 games we were playing more to feet and looking for the defence splitting pass, we're not as good in the air at those big back four.

    Passing is off where it matters, as Swansea found out tarting little passes across the back four doesn't score you goals. Are Millwall putting Frank's Derby into perspective? Got to step it up 2nd half.

    Belisa will know what to do. Smaller triangles, less movement and a quick pass. Rotherham are playing well but we aren't helping ourselves
