Great attitude and fighting spirit on both of them

To be fair if the recruitment team can pull out more gems like Yuki and Gueye, Eustace will simply have to get back in his box.

Completely agree.  Surely based on those 2 signings, the recruitment team have earnt the right to have another stab or two at potential targets?

And also, given how much of an impact they have had, why would Eustace have an issue with them plucking targets out of Outer Mongolia or Timbuktu?

Matondo has 2 goals and 2 assists this afternoon for those wanting him here

No end product though according to @roversfan99

[Forever Blue]

Eustace still wants 4 more signings according to LT.
 

GK, FB, CM and winger.

Agreed.

Good goal but definitely a Pears error.

JRC definitely not a winger he needs to either go into CM or RB.

Dolan is so infuriating, tries far too much and breaks down so many of our attacks with his little tippy happy sideways movements.

We need 2 wingers and someone just behind the striker, new keeper, new CM? New LB? And I'd look to replace Hyam personally.

6-7 signings away from a decent team.

 

Pears is not good enough but that was not a goalkeeping error.

Also what the hell is wrong with Dolans attitude. Stinks the place up with his big head

Thumbs down all you like but he was in a bad position. On penalty spot when chested down and 8 yards off his line when ball was struck. Peddled backwards and couldn’t recover. If he was on his line he saves it end of

Still leaves us minus a Szmodic replacement. 

Need 2 wide players if we aren't signing another forward. Hedges/Dolan/JRC just aren't quick/consistent enough.

JRC had a good game today. Caused them problems by dropping centrally inside into the space between their midfield and defence. He’s not playing as a winger. 

We need a proper winger with pace on the other side though.

[ROVER_N_OUT1978]

Do we think Ryo Germain is a non starter now?

Ideally I would like us to sign a new no.1, a left back to challenge Pickering, two wingers with pace (one for each wing) and Germain. 

Don't see why we need another CM.

Should clarify that's my wishlist and I don't believe it will happen unfortunately.

[sharpysharps86]

My main takeaway from today's game is that Rovers really need some help in the form of a few new players. Some of the lads looked tired and leggy in the first half.

Its a lot to hope for in the next week or so but a new number one GK, LB cover, CM cover, RW and a Centre Forward all feel needed. Bringing in a RW then frees JRC up to play elsewhere, possibly in that number 10 role.

I think Eustace sees the writing on the wall and realises he's not going to get what we clearly need. 

[alexanders]

I dont trust Hyam and Pears. GK and CB first priority for me

I genuinely believe he's shite, just thinks hes incredible 

[BankEnd Rover]

Pace pace and a proper winger…The amount of times Dolan had chance to beat his man today and just physically couldn’t because he was too slow and predictable.

Dembele or Matondo please asap

i would`nt say he was slow and he certainly is`nt predictable,i don`t think dolan knows what dolan is going to do next,thats his problem,he usually chooses the wrong option

[roverandout]

Matondo is crap

[simongarnerisgod]

the mass exodus at the dingledome continues,o`shea the next one leaving for cleaner pastures,on his way to ipswich🙂

[Neal]

I've endlessly gone on and on about Dembele who was at Blackpool last season. He signed for QPR for 2.5 million and christ did we miss out... Have a look at the highlights of the game today against Plymouth, what a player... Good game aswell.

With Matondo seemingly playing his way into the Rangers side, our options are really starting to run out to bring a player in with pace and quality.

He is surprisingly slow.  He has quick feet and able to turn but no acceleration even over 10 yards which is unusual for what you'd consider a 'nippy winger' build.

Our usual luck that.

@chaddyroversi see that nisbet has returned to Scotland after failing to set the division alight, you were a big advocate for us to sign him last year

He’s only there on loan at QPR I think

Oh really, kind of relieved then but would have been a good loan. Looks EXACTLY the sort of player we're looking for.
