Ellafella Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 (edited) 1. Stop doing "zonal" marking at defensive corners FFS! It doesn't work. 2. "Dead-leg" Bannan in the first 5 minutes. 3. Jozwiak and Roberts rotate frequently from left to right. Keep them guessing and fully-advanced. Lawrence central to feed off either Joz/Roberts. 4. If we go a goal up, do not then "drop" 20 yards. 5. If we concede, tighten up rather than zoning out. 6. Man-mark Rhodes if he comes on because it will be route-one a la B'ham.

ariotofmyown Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Based on the season, if we concede we'll lose, so maybe go for 0-0 and hope Rotherham don't win! Chris_Martin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_Martin Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Mac in charge and let Rooney & Rosenior watch from the stands. Subs: Roos, Buchanan, McDonald, Ebosele, Knight, Sibley, Baningime, Watson, CKR Tactics: Mac. Going to need Shay Given's iPad more than ever to keep an eye on the Rotherham game? I'm expecting Wayne to play for the draw (as usual) and then when he sees Rotherham are winning late on, throw on Ebosele, Roos, McDonald up front in place of Lawrence, Jozwiak, Roberts.

ariotofmyown Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 At 0-0, I can see us refusing a last minute 4-on-1 counter attack to take the ball into the corner, not realising that Rotherham have already taken a late lead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ariotofmyown Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 We could pray Rotherham are smashing Cardiff at halftime, so Weds stop trying, allowing us to nick a later winner. It will be in Rotherham's favour to keep their game a tight as possible to stop this happening. Ramos and LeedsRam1999 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spanish Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 I love the demands for high intensity, what have any of you seen to suggest we can do this for any length of time. It would be a miracle. Stive Pesley and Jourdan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping for a last minute winner or hanging on to a small lead may come true but not far too risky. Rovrum need to win I can't believe they will be cagey. Them leading by 2 at half time is probably the best situation for us but we both know it will all take place late on. I hope Derby hospitals have cleared out those covid malingerers because A&E could be very busy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curtains Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Play with a false 9 at the start. Marshall Byrne. Edmundson Clarke Buchanan Shinnie Bird Knight Sibley Joswiak Lawrence subs Roos Fozzy CKR Roberts Eboseli Creswell Watson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamsFan10 Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 A win means we stay up, so the only way to approach the game for me is to attack. If Rotherham happen to be 4-0 down at half time, then sure we can close up shop a bit, but we have to go for it at the start. Roos Macdonald Edmondson Clarke Buchanan Bird Shinnie Roberts Lawrence Jozwiak CKR I think Byrne and Wisdom are both out, which could be really problematic. I'm not sure Knight and Shinnie work well together, or at least they haven't recently. I'd bring Bird in to allow the full backs to get on a bit more, and to compensate for playing 4 forwards.

RadioactiveWaste Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 1. Pretend it isn't happening. 2. Pretend it's only a game 3. curl up into a ball 4. Try not to cry. 5. Cry a lot. In terms of Fat Wazza and the incompiballers? Probably same team as Swansea but remind them it's Sheff Wednesday. Seriously. a team talk consisting of "lads, it's Wednesday" is all that should be needed. Parsnip 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
