Bob The Badger Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Here's what you hear from Roos supporters: Anybody could have made that mistake. He was put in a poor situation. It's not his fault he has a poor team in front of him. He's good at distributing the ball. Yawn A good shot stopper like he is, will have all sorts of excuses being given on his behalf because when he makes a good save it looks great. But the guy is incompetent on the overall scale. The design may be have been poor, but only because Rooney expected his team/keeper to do the basics. Roos can't do the basics. Get him out. We're going down so let's roll the dice on a compromising youngster because he's an utter waste is space. Turnstile and Dinnitdough 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't even have any plus points because he hoofs it anyway. If it goes well, what do we gain? A 10 yard longer punt? A 4 foot pass isn't a percentage pass? Jeez.

LincsRam Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Goal kick..play to a defender under pressure, back to the goalie to lump it forward.... why not just lump it forward without bringing the risk into it? makes zero sense TomG and TimRam 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob The Badger Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Derby play long ball football (last season) - whine and blame Rooney based on results. Derby play passing football (this season) - whine and blame Rooney based on results. Roos 100% for their first, Sunday league control. Stop blaming the manager.

How about coaching the team to play the situation? If the opposition aren't pressing, play out from the back. If the opposition are pressing, play a bit longer. Is it really not that simple?

He's trying to improve the quality of the football we play. Can you not see that? We're down, he knows that. He's trying to instill proper football. Adopting long ball would be so ducking easy. I admire that he isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
