I don’t think it’s ‘moaning’ to query the selection of four right backs. When has that happened before? It was bound to be a talking point....

So did a few people tbh. Looks like barring a miracle, that won’t be happening sadly.

Thought Chelsea were outstanding defensively. As others have rightly observed, Tuchel kept it simple and Guardiola over complicated it and has reaped the benefits.... (Sound familiar?)

That’s quality. A lad from Ossy that supports Rovers too! Good man.

It seems like we have gone back to calling people out for saying something which hasn’t transpired, then people biting back, indicating they know something we don’t. Can we not do that please? As stated before, the information was posted in good faith, by a number of posters, so, at that time, there may have been something in it. Who knows what may have happened since, but either Venky’s are waiting for something else to happen before they pull the trigger, or they’ve changed their mind. With them, pretty much anything goes, so it’s probably not worth getting worked up about rumour and hearsay until anything actually happens....

Nah, I really rate Grealish tbh. If he were to play, I’d want him centrally over Mount. Though to be fair to Mount, I think his recent form and Grealish’s lack of activity makes him the man to pick tbh!

I don’t imagine Southgate would ever be ballsy enough not to play both Rice and Henderson all the time, but for me, this would be our strongest XI. There would certainly be a case for Rice for Mount and James for TAA against the better sides, I’ll give you that.... Pickford TAA Stones Maguire Shaw Henderson Mount Foden Sancho Kane Sterling

I don’t get this argument at all. Sterling has consistently scored more goals than Rashford until this season. Even then, Rashford has a whopping one goal more than Sterling in the league (from seven more appearances)....

‘Same old arguments, same old boring football tactics, bla bla bla’. Surely you don’t think that’s a polite way to address people?

Only ambition I’ve got is for Rovers to get promoted. If that involves functional (what you’ve called boring) football, then so be it. Beats watching us pass it around aimlessly and have about two shots in a game.... (P.S- final time I’ll recommend you locating your nearest charm school and graduating from it).

What’s wrong with managers that have better track records than the guy in the hot seat who’s underachieved so much?

He advised that he was ‘done with the site’ forever, so I wouldn’t expect to see him back here any time soon....

Ben Brereton>Ivan Zamarano

Not saying the fella hasn’t put some graft into that report, but at the very beginning, he admits that we have regressed with our league position. Could probably have finished it there tbh....

Why would you be completely against us signing (even short term) a player that would improve our starting eleven?

I know that Klopp said Henderson had no chance of playing at Euros, but it may well be him playing games....

Whilst I believe that Maddison and Grealish possess more talent than Mount, the way Mount has been playing, he has made himself indispensable. Unfortunately for Maddison and Grealish they’ve both been injured and way out of form. Foden absolutely has to start too. At right back, in reality, we have five full backs that have a case for being selected. (Trippier, Walker, Alexander-Arnold, James and Wan-Bissaka). They’ve all got strong cases for selection. If we could somehow combine the defence of AWB and the attacking of TAA, we would probably have the best right back to ever walk the earth though....

His injury record is worse than Vince Grella’s though....

You were lucky not to cop a ban for that post, to be honest. Second of all, we have absolutely no idea who is responsible for this incident just now. There is no evidence that it’s a Celtic fan. A guy turning all dressed in all black is hardly the same as a card carrying Celtic fan rocking up in their home shirt, is it? It’s probably best to let the investigation run its course before we start jumping to conclusions.

I don’t buy football shirts anyhow, but I still want Mowbray gone....

I wasn’t able to attend, due to work commitments, but 02G will have attended.

It’s tonight instead...

Rovers announced it on Facebook last night, to be fair.

Right, so before this escalates any further (as it always inevitably does when you bring up Celtic and Rangers), please can we leave it there for now?

Good for you. I’ve nothing further to add, everything I said previously still stands.
