v Middlesbrough (a) - 15/10/22

I don't think JDT knows how to change things when things are going against us.. Boro taken complete control and we don't look like scoring again..so have to hope we ride our luck

Good sub from Boro manager, he's much quicker.

Sometimes I wonder if our lads forget they don't have all the time in the world.

Yeah he has him on toast

Reverted back to 343... Don't really get why. Would have thought bringing on Garrett for the energy and sticking with the 352...

So now massively outgunned in midfield again.

Kaminski and the post keep us in it now.

I didn’t get the game today. How many Rovers fans there? 

[yankfan]

Our front three at the moment are struggling to get on any outlets. Dolan and Szmodics not going to win any long balls

I agree and if he did want to take off Gallagher I'd have brought Dack on and let him roam, not Szmodic.

I think the problem is that we don't have great options on the bench - we have a whole host of #10s when Gallagher and Brereton start. 

He'll take Phillips off shortly - he's very much interested in protecting the youngsters, which is the correct thing to do if you're aiming for the long term. 

[simongarnerisgod]

ffs only a matter of time,jdt out thought here that or he`s over thinking

 

[BigBar]

That was too lazy and casual from Travis. Needs to be taken off.

[CambridgeRover]

awful subs

The lad Jones is absolute class at this level. No idea why he didn’t start. 

[West Yorks Rover]

Hard to see us hanging on for another 20 odd mins.

Dolan and Szmodics yet to get a touch since coming on. 

[ItsRoverZ]

Awful subs and bizzare decision to change formation...really bizzare and only ourselves to blame if we screw this up

I'd be fine with one of Szmodics or Dolan and let them play up with Brereton, but he's brought both on and guess what they've hardly touched the ball. Indeed Rovers hardly have collectively.

[BigBar]

Fucking drive it up the fucking pitch!!!!!!

If we conceded before 90 mins Boro are going to win it, we have been abysmal under pressure for years.

[pick32]

Szmodics on 😂 Dack is to good for this club

[CambridgeRover]

Why have we gone from a formation that was working alright to this shower of shit again.
