v Wrexham (h) - FA Cup - 29/1/24, 7:30pm

[Tugay-is-God]

Fair play to the pundits pointing out that Pears should've done better for their goal

[pick32]

Thanks Sammie, Skybet had 1/1 for him to have two shots on target, put 10 on that then they had 4/1 to have another shot in the first half and that came in of a £5 👍

[JohnD]

Dolan and Sigurdsson off

[rovers11]

Gally with a goal and assist. He's not very good but he's certainly the best striker we have right now.

Telalovic hat trick after coming on for the last 15 mins

I hope they bring Moran on in the second half, looking forward to what he can do

Hope he's better than his alter ego on the pitch , he's been shite 😄

Think we can also say Garrett is no replacement for Wharton

Dolan has been good. Siggy has been rubbish as usual. Not a fan of him. 

[joey_big_nose]

Only thing not working for me is Sigurdsson on the left. Id take him off for Adam Wharton, and move Garret to LWB. Shame Batty isnt on the bench - would be perfect for him. Chrisene could come on too as an alternative but he looked a bit poor on the ball to me against WBA.

We should go for a big score.

[CambridgeRover]

We need two wingers, left just as much as right. Sigurdsson isnt looking good imo

Always interesting to hear people who don't see him often talk about big Sam G and laugh at the nonsense they come out with.

To be fair it's kind of understandable, as sometimes it looks like he has everything needed to be a quality striker.

Not bashing by the way, I like Sam personally.

I had guys at work who never watch rovers remark on how good Gallagher is after watching us vs Celtic in a friendly. The odd time he is unplayable and he certainly has all the attributes as you say. Just no killer instinct. If he had Jordan Rhodes’s brain he’d be premiership quality. All that said I’m glad he’s back and he’s been impressive tonight (the championship Harry Kane 😂). 

[cesus]

Having watched that first half my only request in the second half is SHOOT. That keeper looks a liability and we know all about liability goalkeepers!

[Paul Mellelieu]

Four goalkeeping mistakes.

[neophox]

Szmodics and Gally together looks really good even though it's only Wrexham...

You sound like my wife.

I'm sure she will be satisfied with 6, as will I ha ha

[neophox]

Also Dolan looks lively but just the timing missing being out for some weeks..

[Old Codger]

Gallagher adding some value to his transfer potential too. Being well praised by the Relsh commentary team, who also mentioned that Ipswich are looking at him. 

We need to put this to bed if we can, after half time. No room for mercy, no place for the romance of the cup - all we need is Rovers to keep their heads and do the necessary. Next goal is key.

[Roverthechimp]

Sigurdsson playing LB or?

Cos two out of three ain't bad

Also had a goal doubtfully disallowed...

[Dreams of 1995]

Wrexhams keeper is a perfect example of what’s below us 

When people slag Leo off, who hasn’t played well, they should look at this guy to know just how many leagues above both our keepers are

When you go down the football pyramid the standard of keeping shows the biggest skill gap

You could see that coming a mile away. 

Completely dominated possession then caught by a sucker punch.

Who's went to be playing LB? Gave Wharyon too much to do to try and get across.

Playing with Gallagher is like playing  with 10 but the Welsh commentators think he's looking 'sharp".

I give up.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Gallagher has been the best player on the pitch. What game are you watching?

1 goal , 1 assist 

[bazza]

That double save by Pears was crucial. All playing well except Sigurdsson. He is not the same quality as the rest.

[Tugay-is-God]

What's going on with Siggy, does look to be carrying a few pounds maybe. But he doesn't even seem to have that technique or cutting edge that he had when he first started playing

Three backline with Wharton, Hyam and Rankin-Costello

He's an Arsenal loaner their keeper.

I’d like to see Siggy in a number 10 role. I personally don’t think he’s a winger and he certainly isn’t a LB.
