Exiles thread - Bristol Rovers (A)

[LittleMate]

We've gone back to a 4-3-3 but Theo and Drinan playing as more traditional wide men, not cutting in. All still feels a bit laboured in the build up, we've once again looked pleasantly inoffensive.

Ruel has been awful as a ten.

Because Ruel isnt a 10. must have posted that more than ive even posted how Drinan is useless.
Ruel is a 9, he scores goals as a 9, but is hopeless as a 10
I wish RW would realise this

And your management record is....

[corkeireorient]

1-0

[Wally Banter]

FFS 1-0 Rovers.

[i8ubutler]

Bugger.

[Bergen]

Too easy.

[Mistadobalina]

Cracking finish, but such sloppy defending to not clear.

Big 45 minutes coming up, 1 point from these three games would be very worrying.

[Tuffers#2]

Defence f#cks up.
Drinan will get slagged as usual

[Stowaway]

Oh FFS. What is it with us conceding late goals? F**k it, yet again

[RedDwarf 1881]

Now we’ve conceded first I think we’ll lose . I have no faith in our strikers

[DrWindy]

Same old story. We just have nothing in the final third. Puts so much pressure on the rest of the team when there’s no goal threat.

[Wally Banter]

Crap free kick into our box, and left their man too free on the edge of the box.

Theo with a pathetic pull-back in acres of space, underlining how poor the final ball has been.

HT.

[i8ubutler]

HT.
Gonna be a long night.

[faith1234]

What a
Load of crap a goal down to this crap

[Bergen]

We`re looking for the early ball to Forde all the time. It`s very predictable.

COME ON ORIENT!!!!

[cymruO]

Yet another soft goal. I'm struggling to see how we are going to create chances, let alone score from them. Very disappointing.

Why on gods earth is Pigott not on the pitch drinan is dog sh*t

So because ive never been a league manager, according to you im not allowed an opinion eh?

HT.

A pathetic ball to 1 man in the box with 3 defenders,
fairly Harsh on Theo

[RedDwarf 1881]

Why on gods earth is Pigott not on the pitch drinan is dog sh*t

Our problem is so is Pigott

[Stan1972]

Playing like we are with this forward line, haven’t got a clue how we will have any shots on goal, let alone score any goals.
Very poor

[ComeOnYouOs]

Correct

[faith1234]

Pigott is better than drinnan

[Tuffers#2]

Midfield sits way to deep waiting for short passes
from defence , OK when Tom James is playing as he moves forward with Theo more.

Take him off & the gap between midfield & forwards is way to big. Need defenders who can play forwards more
accurately allowing midfield to be more advanced.

[Stan1972]

Bristol Rovers are sooooo poor, if we want to stay in L1 these are the games we should be winning.
Cmon RW get this team fired up for 2nd half
In RW we trust

[essexfootball]

Looks far better in general but the final third is very poor, Forde hasn't had a sniff so you could have Benzema up there and make no difference, I still think Smyth was the key, his quality would just creates goals and chances out of nothing in these tight games
