[Archived] Rovers 1 Arsenil

[Guest shoppybrfc]

Aside from the first 15 minutes that was pretty painful viewing. Our strikers have not held onto the ball once but our defence and midfield haven't been helping by lumping it forward to them. Almunia may as well be on flipping holiday!

Comon boys there's a real chance here!

Are you on crack, Nonda has held up the ball well. its the midfield thats crap tonight

Seems like we are still closing them down all over the pich. Watch for our players to get real tired in around 70min, will be all Arsenal from there on.

On another note, MGP has been shockingly poor at set pieces!

Hoping for a penalty shootout! COME ON ROVERS!

Hmm we were good for 15 mins at the beginning of the first half, and for about 6 mins at the beginning of this one... Not looking very promising. Why can we not string together 3 passes going forward? And why can we not get into shooting positions? Is our game plan to score from dead ball situations?

Gaaaah. Tis a frustrating game to be hooked on.

As i said the balls upto the front two were shocking. When they did get it though they didn't do much with it.

Good save Friedel! Still think we can get this 1-0.

It was a bit hard when the defenders were stuck to them like flys on ######! dont think we blame the forwards tonight. Although you seem to like have a scapegoat every match

Anyone think Axe is playing like he did on sunday? Very impressive

[tchocky]

One of the teams will win 1-0. Judging by amount of chances created it won't be us...
