Bald Eagle's Barmy Army Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Lowe is always going to take time to settle into the team. No fault of his own for both games is that Davies didn’t support him as much as he could at Reading and he had to play with somebody of little experience yesterday. The boy will come good but will take a few games. I do think Malone will come into that position and Lowe will be back up though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However he is a ball winner. Rarely loses the ball and can distribute. He is young enough to adapt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donnyram Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 I think taking a player from Chelsea’s U14’s is a sign of desperation - we weren’t that bad ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far better in the advanced role but he's not going to get a look in this year with Mount here. I think he'll be out on loan again soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the last time Elsnik started for Swindon. Phil Brown couldn't manage to find his way out of a paper bag, let alone use a bright young talent effectively.

At least we’re trying to play the game well. #COYR My sentiments exactly,hopefully will all start coming together, team will start playing as a unit and less frantic at the back and midfield.

Edtheram Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Good on Frank for being angry. Who wouldn't be? I also like that he told the truth and didn't make excuses, he told it how it is. Once we have a settled back four and get Davies, Malone and Tomori integrated we should be strong defensively, Im just not sure about Wisdom at RB, he doesn't seem comfortable on the ball and allowed Alioski too much time on Saturday which lead to the second goal. We also need a quicker more mobile DM he doesn't have to be a great passer of the ball just someone who works hard and does his job well, Hopefully this is Evans but if not we need to dip into the loan market.

He comes from a level where a DM can abandon his support role because at those levels the turnover of possession isn't so frequent. Any rams fan with any nouce what so ever, could tell you that Championship football is more competive and more physical than academy football where Morris comes from, and is less technical and has players with less quality than the premiership or international level (which is where Frank comes from. Neither of these guys are experienced at championship level. So the chances of them getting found out against a street wise team with serious championship experience was always likely to be high.

You can only really say that's the case if frank had come out and said something like "the lads executed the game plan perfectly, but Leeds were just too good for us" or words to that effect. Because that suggests Frank didn't have the right plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought we needed a DM who would just sit and pick passes to be honest A quick and mobile DM might have helped stop Saiz but it would still have left us with no midfield Obviously a quick DM who can run the show would be most ideal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
