v Millwall (h) 01/10/2022

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Turgid first half.

[joey_big_nose]

Hedges right wing back also interesting. Plays RWB when defending and has done well. When we have the ball he goes into central midfield/number 10. One of the strangest tactical things I've seen but has sort of worked. Leaves us with no one down the right at all though.

[Mr. E]

The creativity in the side is 0. It's not 1, or 2, it is actually 0.

If Dack does 99% of nothing all game, the 1% he will contribute would still be a huge improvement on the current play.

[G Somerset Rover]

Bizarre line up IMO and terrible entertainment. Concerning from JDT yet again.

Absolutely woeful and another half where the manager has got it wrong. 

No shape, organisation or ideas. And square pegs in round holes which is unforgiveable given that we have a fully fit squad. 

I really want to like JDT as he seems like a great guy but I'm very unimpressed. 

[joey_big_nose]

Need Buckley or Dack on so we get someone who can play a through ball. Millwall are pretty open just need a bit of quality to find the pass.

[superniko]

Absolutely horrendous half of football.
Get Dack on for god sake for some of these league 1 plodders. 

[AllRoverAsia]

So did they all take a 2 week holiday and meet up at 2.45 pm and those who remembered their boots get a game.

Bloody awful, as soon as a Rover tries anything more creative that sideways, backwards it messes up.

[booth]

Very concerning.

Does JDT have a single clue about this league or team yet?

This is as bad as anything Mowbray served up.... and it's not unusual. 

Agreed.

Worrying that 25% of season gone and I for one fail to see a semblance of a cohesive game plan.

One has to start questioning some of JDT's selections.

Don't fancy Cardiff on a blowy Tuesday night!

It’s painful 🤬 Millwall easily the worst team to come to Ewood 11 behind the ball at all times and they are just an awful team to play against. Rovers need that spark in the middle and quick

[OsloRover]

I don’t get it. Doesn’t JDT want the points?

[tonyoz]

Terrible again. There’s absolutely no sign that we have worked for 2 weeks to improve the last performance. Millwall are poor so the defence has had it easy….except when we overdo the tapping around at the back!

The passing continues to be woeful and every attempt at a forward move breaks down…..we are creating nothing. Midfield is just not good enough. An ‘on-song’ Buckley would be timely. Gallagher has shown his impressive range of miscontrols, Dolan is anonymous and Brereton is back.

Like many, I was looking forward to us finding our way back here…….suckered in again!

Can virtually guarantee Dack can make something happen.

An 80/90% Dack is an improvement on some of the dross we have seen.

JDT has to shake things up surely? Get Dack or Szmodics on..... maybe both... Ben & Dolan to come off for me-Gally needed to stay on ...for his defensive attributes

Or fans to return to the stadium?

[Tugay-is-God]

Guess we're due a draw 

[OsloRover]

Dolan!! 1-0

[ItsRoverZ]

Dollannnnn have it! 1-0

[joey_big_nose]

Crikey Millwall are terrible.

[davulsukur]

Get in!!!

[Miker]

1-0. Much better! We look a different team when we play at this tempo. 

[K-Hod]

Horrific defending from them for the goal, pretty shit attacking until it reached that lad who people don’t rate, good job the manager does though- he scored….

[OsloRover]

Comedy defending but good work from Gallagher

[Bethnal]

Keystone Cops stuff from Millwall
