I have no doubt about the ambition at Rovers. I have a lot of doubts about our capability of realising it.

At Southampton a lot of things didn't go right for Thompson initially but he persevered and really began to show he is a prospect. Very comfortable win for a very young team last night. Thought Jack Vale looked good. Mols (twice), Vale and the tall Asian lad who came on as a sub all guilty of terrible misses in the second half or otherwise it would have been a rout in the scoreline as well as on the pitch. Vale missed a bad one at the end of the first half as well but have to say Butterworth (subbed at half time after scoring two) and Vale took their chances really well.

Having said Stanley were better to watch than Rovers this weekend, these Academy lads are certainly showing the way. Rankin-Costelloe and Chapman not at Southampton so on the bench v Brum?

Brum have injuries and a red card suspension. Now the time to play them. Unfortunately, now is a great time for them to play us...

We have an injury crisis. Give players a week off. Works them extra hard in training to build stamina and strength. Four break down in training with new injuries. I am no expert in these things but this doesn't seem we are doing things right.

Missed all the goals but what I saw in the last 20 minutes made me feel very fearful about this season. We were comprehensively outplayed by relegation candidates.

When I suggested starting Bennett at left back, I was joking.

So many injuries I was looking for my name in the list of subs...

Australia pulled it back to 1 point but that was phenomenal by England to respond with 23 points without reply.

This looks like a nail biting second half. On the basis of England having poor second halves, Australia having good ones and the fact Australia were caught cold but have dominated first half possession, England have a monster job to make it to the semis.

So Cunningham loan is over as he has a season ending injury. Wishing Greg all the best for a complete recovery.

More injuries ahead of this game. I had been looking forward to seeing Sam Hart play.

Agreed. Whatever happened to Bulgarian football? They used to be a fearsome country to play against with the truly world class like Stoichkov.

Congrats to Lewis and his intended...

Congrats to Bradley and his intended...

Rovers badge besmirched in Sofia

Odds got to favour Huddersfield. They have tails up and our tails would have been between our legs except we have no legs because of ACL injuries. 0-2

What a fabulous game Japan v Scotland was. Quarter Finals are going to be immense.

If Czechia had a world class striker, that result could easily have been 5-1. Now to fun in Sofia- let's see if Southgate picks an XI which couldn't be handily defeated by its own subs bench.

Looks like the Scotland game is going ahead.

Wrong selection wrong formation wrong tactics

Why not leave a player on his own in acres of space near the penalty spot? We had been playing statues for a while...

Apart from the goals, Czechs have had 5 decent chances, England nada.

This is the sort of team Tony Mowbray would pick if he were England manager...
