Kinder Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Well, @Rev’s winning streak has come to an end at Rotherham. Will our next trip to Yorkshire be more successful? Some interesting selection choices for Wazza. Does he stick with the back four that had looked so solid until tonight? Should he keep Bird in the Bielik role, or try the new lad Beni? Or play 442 with Gregory up to with Kaz? COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kernow Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 I don't want to be all doom and gloom after one poor performance and awful result. We've generally played well under Rooney and although there's been a lot of one-nils, we've been pretty comfortable in them. Let's hope our lads aren't feeling half as negative as some on here after one poo result. We seem to lose to ugly teams that just fight every season, but we've been beating some pretty decent teams too recently. We just need to carry on as we were before today and hope that the added depth brought it can make the difference in those tight games. Barnsley will try to play a hell of a lot more than Rotherham, but I'd feel more confident in beating them than I would've Rotherham. We need to put it behind us and get back on track, don't let tonight hamper our survival hopes even more in coming games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rample Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Wazza will make big changes - half the team will be dropped. Expecting Marshall Byrne Mengi Clarke Forsyth Banger Shinnie Roberts Knight Lawrence Gregory Not sure that's a good thing, but it is nice to be able to make that many switches.

Ghost of Clough Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 What I'd like to see: Roos Byrne Mengi Wisdom Clarke Buchanan Knight Bird Sibley Kazim Jozwiak Marshall will actually start, Knight will play on the wing, and Shinnie will start at CM in place of Sibley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millenniumram Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Serious changes needed for this one: Roos Byrne Mengi Clarke Forsyth Baningime Shinnie Roberts Sibley Jozwiak Gregory If I could drop all of them I probably would after that gutless performance. Marshall was awful tonight, constantly gave the ball away from goal kicks and probably should have done better with some of the goals too. Roos did nothing wrong before he was dropped, so he returns. Byrne was poor going forward but we don’t really have any other options there. Both centre backs were beaten too easily throughout, but with only one other fit CB, Wisdom is the one to drop out for Mengi as he was the worse of the two. Distribution was slow and indecisive, too easy to press. Buchanan struggled physically and I think this will be a similar challenge, so Forsyth comes in. Again, both CDM’s were poor in possession and defensively, but Bird was especially weak in the absence of Bielik, so Baningime gets his chance to step in. Haven’t really got anyone else to replace Shinnie. Waghorn was ineffective in the final third as per usual, so Roberts gets his chance. Knight works hard but provides little threat, Sibley might give us more goals. Kazim-Richards looks tired so I’d give him a rest for Gregory.

Similar to Wisdom in terms of pace, physicality and passing ability, but looks like he can actually head the ball too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
