I'm biased as he isn't my type of player, but in a poor team he will stand out as he lacks quality on the ball. With better players around him he can be very effective, his energy winning the ball back and giving it to players who can do something with it. What is his position though ?

RamNut Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 I still think we have enough to be ok. I still think we have some decent players but Wayne seems to leave the tactics to Kermit, and we are now seeing the tinkering that was all too evident under cocu. too many changes. Too many different tactical strategies. We have lost all shape and pattern. since Wycombe when the players were clearly instructed to hoof it - as was confirmed afterwards - our forward passing game has gone to pot and the confidence is evaporating. the defence which was so solid now looks wobbly and the good youngsters are fading before our eyes. Sibley, knight and Bird have all been overtaken by Louie Watson. It’s very disappointing when we can’t even give Coventry a decent game. I really hope we at least start to contemplate life after Rooney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EulogyForEvolution Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 1 hour ago, EulogyForEvolution said: We're going backwards at the moment. We've been sliding for weeks, and that was just utter crap. It says something when the most frustrated player on the pitch and the only player to try and pass the ball forwards in the last 4 minutes of injury time was a kid who has barely kicked a ball professionally. Watson was also the only player I heard speak throughout the game. How often is that the case? Quoting myself here, but it's interesting that Rooney picked up on this in his post match interview. Frightening that the only playing consistently talking on the pitch is an academy lad fresh into the team. Teams that don't communicate are not successful. This needs to be sorted now. Our centre halves should NOT be both going for the same header under no pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was the playground and you were picking teams from your gaggle of mates I’d pick Jason early doors regardless of where he was being played. .. Of all the crop he is the one for that’s “got it” in a broader sense that's kind of the point though, we're playing professional football, not on the playground.

I think WR is happy to let RamsTV put this stuff out, to realy help explain, what he has to work with. At least all the lads seem happy and are training with smiles on their faces.

They hit the post but created very little either, plus they were gifted the goal... They tried to play football, had a good defence and eleven players giving their best.

Ruud Aralliss Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Just watched WR interview, sounds like he will be starting Watson Wednesday night. Another young talent destined for premiership football, but I think it’s well seasoned championship players we need atm for the scrap that we are in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree centrally in a 3 as 1 of the 2 runners in front of a holding midfielder. One of the Bryson or Hendrick in front of Thorne/ eustace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gritstone Ram Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 I don’t believe the Hog wash Rooney tried to sell us about taking a gamble on Tuesday. If I was gambling I wouldn’t put my money on us winning that game. I think the lesson is to try to win every game. Players looked like they were off the pace today and it can’t be because they played on Tuesday because Byrne who gave the ball away for the goal was rested and none of the others that were rested weren’t much kop either.

Chester40 Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Genuinely a little nervous about relegation for the first time. We are playing dreadful, limp football and don't have a ton of options on the bench. A win and a couple of improved performances and things will look a hell of a lot better but for 3 games now we have certainly looked every inch like a bottom 3 team.
