v QPR (h) - 30/7/22

[DE.]

Defence and midfield look okay (from a starting 11 perspective), front four... well, let's see. Hedges and Gallagher need to show much more than they did last season. We need BBD rather than BB, and Vale has to step up too. I'm certainly curious to see how it works out.

Looks a poor team to me, especially in midfield.

Nah Buckley and Travis will run it from midfield!

[roverandout]

Philips can eff off. If he wants out don't include him

[Mike E]

Looks to me like 4231

Kaminski; Brittan Ayala Wharton Pickering; Buckley Travis; Hedges Vale Brereton; Gallagher.

[ItsRoverZ]

Definitely a bit light in areas In terms of squad depth but a semi decent starting 11 here, although I'm a big fan of dolan and love his energy and tireless running 

 

Oh I think Gallagher is through the middle with Vale behind him and Hedges and BBD either side of Vale

Carter out for a few weeks…

I seem to recall @Claytons Left Boot selflessly sacrificing his lunchtime meat and potato pie against a coach window to let the occupants know they weren’t welcome.

I’ll do anything for the cause John and, whilst I’ve no reason to doubt your excellent memory, that pie throwing episode has been erased from the memory banks. 😆 Must have had some liver in it, to waste it on that lot.

Yeah Vale at 10. Not many would have said a start - or even bench - for him back in May but he's earned it in pre season.

Shame about Phillips not committing. Just goes to show how close he is to playing meaningful first team minutes. Carter out and Ayala is always 45 min away from an injury.

Dunno he’s nippy and runs his bollocks off

Yep - works hard, retains the ball, quick enough to bother teams.

Just needs an end product now.

[markhayhurst]

QPR not full strength but…

Olamide Shodipo starts.

No Chris Willock or Luke Amos, way back from injury. 

** Young striker Sinclair Armstrong is on the bench, as is loan signing Taylor Richards.

Fecking Gallagher on the wing again. Further evidence that Waggott is spiking the coaching and managerial team with LSD. I just can’t see any other rational explanation for why we keep playing him on the wing. 

What teamsheet are you looking at?

Its Brereton left, Hedges right, Vale at 10 and Gallagher at 9. (Albeit they'll interchange during the game)

[ItsRoverZ]

Really want JDT to be a success..he's my favourite manager since Hughes

JDT has said he likes the front 4 to interchange so expect to see a bit if all four everywhere.

[Sweaty Gussets]

It could be:

Gally    Hedges   BBD

            Vale

Still doesn't mean Gally is 'right wing'. JDT likes the from 4 to play narrow by all accounts. 

 

But could be:-

Hedges   Vale    BBD

              Gally

 

I think the only one we can say with any certainty is BBD being AML.

[neophox]

Come on Rovers!!

[Tugay-is-God]

Is the sound a bit choppy on Rovers TV for anyone else, or is there some problem on my end?

[Silas]

Let the revaleution begin!

Good luck JDT.

Mine too. Hope they sort it or I’ll have to but QPR sound on.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Come on Rovers!

[Sparks Rover]

New speakers required 

[yankfan]

Vale through the middle with BBD and Gally wide to start. Hedges as the 10. 

[ItsRoverZ]

We look a bit shakey at the back in the first 5 minutes, when they get past our press we seem a bit open

[yankfan]

Kamenski noticeable higher up the pitch. 

[OsloRover]

Pickering passing it like Pirlo
