When we do move forward, Rudoni is rarely available.

You are a number 10 lad, it's your job to find space in the final third

We've reached the Lati in midfield stage of midfield desperation

So so bad on transition, we've been useless.

Truly awful from start to finish. No ideas, no leadership (on the pitch and off). Clearly second best in all areas. Leeds are a good side but we didn’t even compete. Next 2 games are massive for the players, fans & Robins. Think it’s 2 wins in 17 now with shed loads of money spent and an unbalanced squad.

Matty James still available.

What really gets me Is mve & lati were shite and both played the full 90 for no reason. Both will have to interchange soon (fixtures really do kick in after the international break) and he tried lati in midfield. Should have bought on Andrew. We were 2-0 down and not in the game. Nothing to be lost by taking one off and giving Andrew’s a run out. We were beat anyway.


So many forwards at the club but we can’t accommodate any. I can understand the lineup but where do we go from here? Rudini went off. Hopefully not serious, but we’re out of ideas

It's a good point about Andrews. He's not gonna get more experience by sitting on the bench.

On Robins really.

You have to think he doesn't believe Andrews is good enough, but he really could do with some game experience couldn't he. We are one injury/suspension away from being in real trouble in that midfield area.

For me, it would be a needs must situation. As you say, he's not going to learn anything from the bench is he.

MR needs to start giving him 10 mins of the bench to help get him up to speed (similar to what he did with Eccles in L1). Ready or not, he is going to have to play some part sooner or later off the bench. Yesterday was the perfect opportunity for that.

There is no way that Sheaf, Eccles, Torp, Rudoni and maybe Lati will be enough to get us through to January.
