the 2nd striker is usually the creative one who also can also fill in midfield when under the cosh,when the game is going your way or pretty even then he slots back in attack,having two strikers is a no brainer imo,imagine how many goals jordan rhodes or gestede would have got if dack had been around to partner one of them,i always thought dunny was prime for that role as well,though souness obviously disagreed!!!

im`e all for that,if you are getting overrun then have the second striker drop back into midfield,it`s simple and effective,football is supposed to be simple game is`nt it

best game ever imo,made all the more tragic as the brazilians only had to draw to go through,their have been some fantastic brazilian teams through the years but none of them matched that side,i cried when gentile and his feral team mates triumphed,football was never the same after that

he played 1 game for garforth town at aged 54,a couple of years before his untimely demise😥,zico,eder,falcao and socrates,the holy quartet

routine win for us on saturday,i`me going for a 2-0 triumph over the welsh miscreants

i wonder how long it will be before a coach looks at the stats and finds out how many goals are given away by clumsy centre backs trying to pass it out from the back,i suggest it`s already a lot,the next manager who decides to lump it out from the back,he`ll become the new "game changer"😃

stephen about to be captured and banged up🙂

with the state of neville`s business dealings,they are probably living in a council flat in collyhurst😁

hard to believe there is a credit crunch when you see wembley and twickenham full,definately not cheap to watch the football or rugby and thats not just tickets

he was a bang average player,a poor club manager and he`s a national manager who got the job because he`s a yes man,keeps picking players who don`t play for their clubs because he`s to scared to pick all his attacking players,with the ammunition we have i make us favourites for next years euros and possibly the next world cup,with southgate in charge it definately will not happen

this is getting me excited,for the first time in 13 years i can finally see a future without the jackboot of indian incompetence

probably was`nt impressed with kenny and his training methods,had no chance of starting and was there to make up the numbers,hence he decided he would be better off back home with the family to enjoy the rest of his week off

venkys going to jail😁

1982 spain side was very good,we should have done much better than coming home without losing!!!!!!!greenwood,like southgate was allergic to taking risks,if clough had been in charge of that side we could have been potential finalists,especially as italy literally kicked the greatest brazil side since 1970 out in the group stages spain 1982 best world cup ever imo

the rovers fans could see he had some ability and were willing him to show it,mowbray should have sent him on loan when he first signed him because he was`nt ready for the grind of the championship

maybe the proverbial is going to hit the fan and venkys stop funding us,pending they are ******* off and leaving us to manage on our own,which is fine by me,i`ll take whatever as long as we are free

jeez,they try the same approach every autumn and winter,the epitome of stupidity is doing the same thing over and over again in the hope that it will somehow work,looking at rovers long term is actually very scary,there is`nt one unless we rid ourselves of the indians and swag,maybe they`ll all get put in jail over their alleged fraud or their accountant insists they offload rovers,their profits fell a lot in the last quarter so lets hope they are in a bit of financial strife

push brittain further up the flank and play jimmy hill at right back,brittain is better going forwards and jimmy is a better defender,simples innit

he certainly is`nt going to get that in spain😀he`ll be back in england by the start of next season

buckley has been playing in a 4/3/3 on the left or right side of attack(not his position) could change as wednesday are looking for a new manager,he has`nt made any impression at all tbh,id`e recall him in january if it continues bbd is struggling badly at villarreal,he`s now playing at a much higher level and looks lost in all honesty,i don`t think he`s got the skills to adjust to spanish football,his first touch was always terrible

i though he was a bit out of his depth when he joined last year,got better and better to his credit and thoroughly deserves his call up,i just hope he does`nt get injured cos he`s now an integral part of blackburn rovers,i hope siggy gets through unscathed as well🤐

rooney has american connections and birmingham are owned by an american rabble i think

the all out attacking has`nt helped us,it`s bad when the last line of defence is your two centre backs being ran at because there is a massive amount of space in front of them,jdt has to take some blame for this,though pears has`nt helped either,he`s lost us two games by being a plank

oliver clearly **** himself and so did the var guys,about sending someone off so early in the game,different ref different decision,as stated,the consistency is bizarrely all over the place

oliver the ref very quick to hand out the cards,this could be a card fest,especially if the incompetent var people start getting involved
