*~*~* Rotherham v Sunderland match thread *~*~*


Jobe doesn't do much that amounts to anything attacking mind..how is he so slow ??
He's virtually guaranteed a start in the attacking midfield / 10 role and I've seen very little suggesting he can play it. Maybe if we had a striker ahead linking play so he could ghost past, but in general play he has good feet, but doesn't really do that much in terms of attacking contributions.

Probably more suited to playing as one of two number 8s with a striker ahead.
 
Problems aren't just up top. A team that's let in this many goals and scored so few have had the best chances without argument. Our defence can be just as weak as our attack.
 
We've lost so much tempo and intensity going back ti Mowbrays last few games, we've went from being so good to watch to a bit boring and shit
 
Very slow in possession as Rotherham are doing a decent job in blocking the passing lanes forward. But the back four all need to step up the tempo and move the ball faster.

I said on another thread the other day how important Roberts is to receive the first real pass out of the back line and threaten forward, moving their units, and we’ve seen just how important.

Beale has to have seen the issues and the solutions - runners over the top - so be interesting to see how long he takes to shift things.

Jobe for Rusyn at half-time time for me. Yellow and hasn’t been involved. Not his fault as the space hasn’t been there but he’s a candidate for a second yellow!

Rusyn? Your time has come.
 
Need pace out on the right, putting Aouchiche there isn't the answer. Bennette on the wing or Pembele deeper hopefully a change he looks at.
 
Mayenda wasn't here last season so it's irrelevant.
Fine. He’s actually managed to score whilst playing for the u21s this season. I’m not saying he’s great but the Mayenda hype is literally off Mowbray saying he was banging them in training. As he did with Burstow.
 
If Beale isn’t allowed to sign an already developed striker in Jan then I wouldn’t blame the fucker if he walks away.

Why the fuck are we doing this to ourselves after getting 10 mil for Ross. Fuck the Lego model.
