v Sheffield United (a) - 20/8/22

[Exiled_Rover]

Bit of a kit clash this - too much white. 

[BigBar]

Our two left sided defenders up to their old tricks. Got away with it.

How desperate are we to have to play Edun.

He has given the ball away dangerously already. 

So many on here still think he's a player. 

We are always down to 10 men when he plays, as someone has to constantly cover for him, as Diaz had to on Sunday. 

Anyone but Edun. He must be bloody good in training. 

This is looking worrying.....

[OldEwoodBlue]

Playing awful like at Reading so far.

Second to every ball.

Giving the ball straight back with rushed bad passes.

Backing out of challenges.

Oh and we should be 4 down just in the last 5 minutes.

Fantastic goal line clearance by Phillips there, but they are all over us. 

Well second best so far. 

[Exiled_Rover]

We've literally just set up to survive. 

I feel sorry for JDT. 

[yankfan]

Weee getting battered at the moment. Should be down 1 or 2 possibly 3 by now 

[BigBar]

Who is tracking Fleck???? Buckley??? Trav????

[Fraserkirky]

My god we are awful

[BigBar]

Lovely bit of skill from Brittan.

[ItsRoverZ]

Can't remember a rovers team looking this physically weak..pathetic 

[BigBar]

Gally starting very well. Strong and direct.

[ItsRoverZ]

Clearly what ever system JDT is working on in training isn't working.. we are embarrassing on and off the ball right now 

[BankEnd Rover]

So so bad this…if we get any kind of result here I will eat my hat.

We needed a tough tackling DM for so long and the club have gone for the likes of Davenport, Trybull and Clarkson.

....can't remember Edun ever sending in an accurate (or any) cross. 

Ever!

There seems a lack of belief in teammates winning the ball or keeping the ball. Very reactive instead of anticipating the play. 

[BigBar]

Our midfield is the envy of the league according to some. Not a chance.

[Mercer]

When the opposition are so much on top they simply have to score.

Seen many games like this where Rovers have battered the opponents and done everything but score and then comes the sucker punch....................................!

[OldEwoodBlue]

Its no surprise to see Szmodics, a third division player, consistantly playing like a third division player.

[BigBar]

Where is the infamous press??..they are strolling into our final third looking to pick their killer pass.

[Exiled_Rover]

They're wide open for the counter attack.

Thinks he's actually done alright.

[Fraserkirky]

Smodzy is gonna get himself subbed at half time again. Woeful today, not for the first time.

[roverblue]

It’s like reading game just carried on after the 90 mins. Should be down by a few goals and literally incapable of keeping possession or passing to a team mate. What has happened in last few days?!?
