Watched the game fully expecting the same lame performance seen every game lately. Totally devoid of attacking intent. Just passed it around as usual. No real response to going behind yet again. Its so predictable and painful. Their keeper not tested at all. Teams know we cant score but also know they'll get a chance. If they take it game over! Three centre halves for a home match says it all. Set out not to lose rather than go out and win.

This team is poor, no doubt about it, lack of creativity and technical ability. There is a reason why we can't score and it appears to be a hangover from PCs team, the reason why we pass so much side to side is because the players aren't good enough to see a pass.

Watson seems to be a bright spark, did more in 5 minutes than Knight did all game, Sibley though didn't do anything when coming on, but deserves a chance next game solely based on everyone else being given a start ahead of him being equally as poo. Roberts also showed enough to be given a start IMO. 

I don't believe you can judge WR yet, he is trying different options but no one is stepping up, if we stay up then hopefully he will have a pre season to be able to put his mark on the team.

But we did lose though.

It's looking more and more like our good form was a Bielik bounce/new manager bounce. 

Now he's gone, Rooney isn't exactly pulling up any trees. 

He deserves time, but I'm sick of setting up without creative players in the line up. 

The team isn't good enough, don't think many managers would do better. All the squad has had chances now under two managers. This isn't all Rooney.

I know we havent got any points today and we didnt look like scoring but at the end of the day we are no closer to the bottom 4 points wise than before the game. I see it as 1 more game crossed off for teams to gain points on us.

Christ, how depressing is that?

 

And Sibbo should have put that chance away.

The problem is the forward line. 

Waghorn isn’t good enough, Jozwiak isn’t good enough, Gregory is past his best, CKR is massively overrated on here. He has done nothing in the past four games.

Byrne put in enough good crosses to score a hatful. Roberts needs someone to pass to, not a bunch of clueless statues. Sibley could be a star but needs a hand.

Watson put a gorgeous ball through to Jozwiak and he never looked like he was going to do anything positive. He is so slow it’s embarrassing. Centre halves catch him up.

We need pace up front and if that means promoting Cresswell, sobeit.

We can’t keep picking these losers and hoping it gets better. 

 

Some on here have been claiming we have top 6 equivalent players. Other than Clarke and Byrne I just don’t see it. Our position in the table is a fair reflection of how poor we are....

Unbelievably soft interview with Ed Dawes at the moment. Goes to absolute jelly whenever he interviews Rooney.

If this was any other manager he'd be putting him through it, yet he literally works WR an out in every question. Rubbish.

We were much worse after Rooney switched the formation and lost all our threat when he subbed off Jozwiak. CKR was very poor today, offered no movement whatsoever, it was so easy for Millwall to defend against him. Jozwiak the only player that offers any movement off the ball (and maybe Waghorn). I just don't understand why do we always play so slowly as well!

We can't surely be considering offering Waghorn a contract? He consistantly fails to bring anything to the game..

 

It is very hard to uncover why he gets selected.  Other than occupying a space on the pitch he regularly and reliably adds no discernible difference. His touches are negligible, and his passes inconsequential even when they land at a team mate. Mostly a passenger.
