Promoted, the talent is in the team to do well and I'm not castigating him completely btw, only pointing out other managers seem a bit more agile in their team formations, nothing more. But IE will make mistakes so commenting on them doesn't mean I want him thrown on the bonfire! He is clearly learning and learning well in the main. Doyle however...🤣 I just don't get him or what he does and would love a proper alternative so we know one way or another. Unfortunately Kanchunga doesn't look like it will be him.

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted September 18, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted September 18, 2021 We get into loads of decent situations but don’t get enough clear chances. Not just today but consistently. No idea whether it’s a bad final pass or the players in the middle not taking up better positions. Not too downbeat though. Rotherham are a decent team. We tried to play football. We are a mid-table team. Days like today will happen a few more times yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mounts Kipper Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 It was very BWFC to lose today, Rotherham played it like a cup final which is a tribute to how far we have come over the last 18 months, fully expect us to bounce back and finish above them come the end of season.

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted September 18, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted September 18, 2021 (edited) Doyle showed great movement again and linked well. The opportunities fell elsewhere and the midfielders didn't take them. That's not Doyle's fault. She should have scored his big chance though.

Dimron Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 I can't knock Doyle, he runs the channels and feeds off scraps, does his best to polish turds. I'm going to repeat myself here... 11 corners and zero goals, Rotherham had 4 and got one goal. Don't get me started on long throws. 100% total football does not work in League 1, we need to knock it over the top and get more in the oppositions face when required.

Eavesy Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Lee for Sheehan was a mistake. yes a few of Sheehan’s passes went a stray but atleast he was looking to make something work. lee came on and went side ways and backwards and doesn’t have an ounce of creativity in him. creative player off and defensive general on is baffling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sheep Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 For what its worth 've watched BWFC home & away for around 40 years & Doyle is over rated IMO, I think League 2 is his level, he needs 5 or 6 chances to score a goal, that chance today 1st half was a poor attempt - watch it again he was lucky that it hit the post he actually miss hits it, he lacks composure IMO he snatches at the ball instead of placing it. He's a decent player but he's not a clinical goal scorer, saying that if he was he probably wouldn't be playing for us !, however if we want to improve next season we need a better striker than Doyle - he may work hard & help the team but he misses some glaring sitters (and he did last season as well) All in all its been a very decent start to the season & I'm made up that we are 8th as staying up is a result for me this season - but if we are to improve we need a better striker in January who can score goals (perhaps FV will have to actually pay a fee ?) and we need some steel either at CB or in midfield as some teams can easily bully us - but as it stands this team will finish mid table quite easily Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnyrotten Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 1 hour ago, JimmyRiddle said: Their manager in his post match interview said that he changed it early on and sat deep not bothering pressing out centre halves. This is the same week Evatt has stated we struggle against that, and like teams to go toe to toe with us! Well sorry Ian if that's the case we better never concede first, as that is the 3rd game out of 4 a team has deployed those tactics and we've struggled against them all and taken 1 point. Do we have a Plan B or is Evatt too arrogant to bother?? I must admit I thought it was odd to give that away in his interview post-Ipswich, I think it slipped out in the afterglow of a thumping win, its clear to any observer that we'll struggle against defensive minded teams, especially if Dapo is having one of his off days.

bolton va va Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 We shaded the 1st half & played well but went in 2 down because they took their chances & we didn't. 2nd half started brightly again but we looked less & less likely to score as it went on & after the substitutions we had very little threat. Rotherham will probably finish top 6, were organised & hard working,took their chances & did their homework on nullifying Dapo though that could have been different if the full back had been booked earlier as he should have been for persistant fouling. Some concerns about not taking our chances, a need to have other threats when Dapo is targetted & a lack of attacking options off the bench but still very optimistic for the season & that we will get better......we were never going to win every week.

There is a quandary here: sheehan doesn't look to rush back, I saw him jogging at times, and one in particular saw sarc sprint back past sheehan despite being much further forward initially. Something for Evatt to work on for sure, as teams are scoring to readily at our place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whereas some of the others look quite leggy at times tbh. As for Doyle, he probably works too hard, getting involved in play far too wide or far too deep rather than just hanging around up top and feeding off the scraps. Kachunga isn’t the answer but then again I don’t think he’s necessarily played the same role twice for us yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter MickyD Posted September 18, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted September 18, 2021 Just looking at our superior possession against cambridge (75%), Burton (75%) and today (66%) and we have no goals and one point from all that possession. Ipswich we enjoyed a lot less possession, 5 goals and 3 points. Perhaps bossing the possession isn't the way to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUREADY2ROLL Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Just back; thought we played well first half but missed our chances and give away soft goals. We wouldn’t have scored second half if they give a hour time added on. Need to speed it up a little. West Stand Lower can fuck off. Never sit with the moaning gets again - kicking off when you get up off your seat. One woman saying you don’t go every game like we do and shouldn’t get up when we look like scoring - miserable gets.
